After a bunch of research, I bought this because I wanted a Chromebook with 8GB Ram and touchscreen to have great experience in my man-cave.  It has surpassed most of my expectations.  However, it has different functionality from our other (three) Chromebooks, where I have to decide if I want the app to run as Phone, Tablet, or "resizable".  This has made a few apps VERY difficult as they don't like to run in phone mode on a Chromebook.Most importantly, I saw in several reviews that the speakers for this device were lacking.  They did NOT underline that enough.  My iPad, my phone, my Kindle Fire.... all have better speakers than this Chromebook.  I have resigned myself to the fact that I ALWAYS need to use Bluetooth speakers to hear something if I want to watch on this Chromebook.That said, everything else has been outstanding - battery life, ability to run APKs, fast processing.  I don't completely regret buying this, but wish I could've heard how bad the speakers were before I pulled the trigger.
