What I wanted was a laptop that didn't carry all the bulk and bells and whistles I don't use. Everything I use is connected directly to my Google accounts so naturally a chrome book is what I was in the market for. Its so light, but it doesn't feel cheap. It has a simple design to it and isn't too terribly hard to get used to it's operating if you're used to mobile devices. I have the galaxy note 4 and they both have the leather-like stitching that adds a feel of class and uniqueness that I enjoy. The silver color is beautiful and it's very easy to clean. This is by far one of the best devices I've had as far as computers go. If you're looking for something truly portable, this is it. Even the smaller 11 inch screen does not take away from the experience. I was originally looking for something much bigger, as my last laptop was 17 inches, but this smaller screen does not disappoint. This fits in just about all of my purses, and the charger is so small that it's perfectly portable too. It charges quickly and holds it's charge remarkably. This would be perfect for a student and it's well worth the money especially for being a Samsung product.
