This is my first Chromebook.  I've always had Windows machines in the past and still use  a Lenovo T480s for work, but I'm impressed with this HP Chromebook.  It's intuitive and the interface isn't busy with apps.  It's light and for browsing, it's quite fast.  I've only had it for a week, so I still haven't experienced an update.  Updates are something I dread with Windows.  The Chrome browser seems to work better than Edge with most websites.
