We checked all the chromebooks on the market at Bestbuy for our last minute gift. We compared all the chromebooks that was instock and found this Samsung chromebook 2 the best looking chromebooks ever. Bestbuy had this for $199, Amazon at $189, the decision was easily made to use my prime account. Well Done Amazon. The leather-like finish of the top cover looks elegant and you won't feel this is a $199 notebooks. The build quality is truly amazing, very solid build not flimsy screen like the HP and Toshiba on display at Bestbuy, after setting this up (took 1 minute only including all updates), we tested the performance on this chromebooks, it's extremely fast even thought this is only a 2GB RAM chromebooks, we had 10 tabs opened at the same time and not experiencing any lag. All to all, I am truly impressed by the build and performance.However, there are 2 key features that is missing from this chromebook, an IPS screen, thinking about samsung who makes the best screens we were expecting the screen to be much better in quality, the vertical viewing angle is really poor, there is no mentioned of the IPS screen in any specification details from both Amazon and Samsung site, we just assumed it would come with IPS because of the brand name of Samsung. Another area that can be better would be the keyboard, the keys are somehow smaller than the 11.6" windows notebooks we had, the space gapping each individual key is pretty big, so I am missing the accuracy when typing on this chromebooks, the keyboard also has a short travel distance, it's not easy to type and not comfortable as what we used to have.All to all this is a great looking and high performance chromebook, if you are not picky as we are on the screen and typing comfort, look no further.
