If you’re not doing anything intensive, it’ll easily last an entire day with spare juice left by the time you get home. Chrome OS is FAST! System updates download and install really quickly (due to the size of the stripped down version of linux), reboots never took more than a min- more like 20-30seconds most of the time.īattery life is pretty impressive. Did not get crazy hot (just slightly warm) even after hours of streaming videos.

Completely silent due to the fan-less design.

Never had a system crash/blue screen/etc all these time. When you wake up by opening the cover, it only takes a second (literally) before it’s ready to bring you anywhere you want to go online. Simply close the lid when you’re done and open the cover when you’re ready to use it. No worries about sleep, hibernation, shutdown, etc.

Sure, the Toshiba can’t do everything the macbook can, but at less than a quarter of the price. It is awesome! Prior to this, I was using a retina macbook pro 2013 before trying this month experiment. Can I survive 3 months using only a Chromebook as my main computing device (besides my phone)?.we settled on the Toshiba Chromebook 2 which was retailing $279.
