Thank you soo much😂
Good bro
Short answers, Chromebooks are big Android tablets with an attached keyboard. Boom.
Protect this man at all costs
So, buying laptop is the best choice
@@colebennett1496 nice haha
@@fahadibnatuhinofficial4555 No it still depends on what you need and your budget.
Thank you man ♥️
This would really depend on usage. I've used chromebook for work for about 2 years. It was perfect as all work apps are chrome-based with the google accounts provided for us. I also have a windows latop for personal use. Only drawback really for chromebooks is that it cant do what windows or mac can do, but windows and mac can do what chromebooks can. So really up to you.
Can you use Microsoft office (web ver)? Like word, PowerPoint, and etc?
Can we use Chromebook for MS Office, Web Designing, Graphic Designing and to watch CZcams videos ?
Hmm I havent really tried it personally. But with Microsoft Office web, I think it would still work, it should. Graphic designing, that I am not certain as I have no knowledge of that subject.
@@invalidloop6523 The ads say so. But those are misleading a lot of the time. And the video says no.
@@MuhammadAhmed-yy9es For CZcams, yes. Obviously, it’s a Google service that doesn’t take much to run.
Thank you so much. Your voice is pleasant to hear. : )
"May your games be fun and your losses be few." Nice.
Difference between Windows and Chromebook: That on a Chromebook, you can't install or run anything that's not already there that came with the laptop. Chromebook starts up and shuts down in less than one second.
new acer Chromebook 514 is good. The laptop has a Gorilla Glass-covered touchpad and has a nice mediatek processor. Top features!
This video was very helpfull but I would like to say that I have both windows and chromebooks and Although chromebooks do have many drawbacks, they do have the option to run windows through a virtual machine which in most cases is very reliable for someone who has a budget and needs a windows pc. Using the virtual machine one a chromebook will run most applications just about the same as a windows laptop, although I would like to add that the performance of the virtual maching will be limited the the chromebooks hardware. I would also like to add that I am typing this on a chromebook and have no trouble sending long emails or writing essays. I have a mid range chromebook though costing around five hundred dollars and my chromebook is bigger than average chromebooks. I would personally recommend to anyone who asks me to get a mid range chromebook if you intend on using it for education. I have found my chromebook suitable for any of my needs. I would like to add the fact that on my specific chromebook, I only have one usb connection, SD card slot, and audio jack. Most mid range chromebook chargers use usb-c connections and most will have one on either side of the chromebook, which I have found very helpfull if I am sitting in an awkward spot from the charging connection. I know this comment was long and only about chromebooks but I would like you to know that my comment is only here for advice and that you can pick which ever device you find suitable. I hope you learned something new from my comment!
Oo! This is very helpful. I have ubuntu and windows on another machine and if I can use it via virtual machine that would be great.
Hey, as an OWNER of BOTH a HP Chromebook & HP Stream(Windows 10) laptop, I think this video was VERY INFORMATIVE when COMPARING the DIFFERENCES between those DIFFERENT computer softwares. When I first bought my HP Chromebook, I felt LOST because I was so ACCUSTOMED to using Windows 10 laptops. I quickly REALIZED that Chromebooks just can't do as much as Windows 10 laptops can. For example, I couldn't even use my external optical drive with my Chromebook, which drove me CRAZY! In order to utilize my external optical drive, I had to buy a Windows 10 laptop, which my HP Stream is. Now, my HP Stream(Windows 10) laptop is my PRIMARY laptop while my HP Chromebook is my SECONDARY laptop. Sometimes, I have the GREATEST FUN sending emails between them to myself thru my TWO email accounts! Does that sound CRAZY?
is chromeOS x64(32bit) or x86(64bit)
bec i need it for school
i don't haven alot of money and i will get a proper full gaming pc or laptop nex year
Craziest thing I ever heard
Thanks :)
I’d love to read your emails.. curious to know what you say to yourself !! 😂😂
THANKS for your REVIEW of this VIDEO it showed me how GOOD of a VIDEO it was before I WATCHED it.
uu thats something I want to know
and even the stock images make more sense this time
Chromebooks are largely intended for education that's why. If you're a middle schooler or highschooler all you need is a chromebook unless your school requires a lot of windows programs for some reason. For college, it depends if the major requires a lot of windows programs or not. For work the same reason is the same as in college like does your work require a lot of windows programs? For gaming the best bet is a desktop. Most laptops right now can't compare to the power desktops have when it comes to gaming. To me chromebooks are entry level while laptops are what most people use and desktops are if you need real sh*t to be done
So if i an accountant/audit, which one is suitable for my work office, is chromebook or laptop? Really hope for a reply
As a lucky gen z who got to use a Chromebook in school, Have to say THEY ARE AMAZING for the price. they are better than half the crap I currently have to use. For example, they are great for writing documents, exchanging emails, and watching CZcams. Google stadia runs almost flawlessly, and back when it first came out I was able to run 'Microsoft flight simulator'.
I still have a netbook from 2010 with windows xp and it still works. I upgraded the os to a Linux lightweight os and runs fine. I used it throughout college and while the typing takes some time to get used to, it isn't a big deal to me.
i have a elitebook from 2009 with windows 10
4:48 Waddya mean "And while you can still connect an external storage device to a chromebook, doing so kinda defeats the whole purpose of chromebooks and their unmatched portability in the first place". Like external devices aren't compact enough?
Very helpful. Laptop is a must!
Thank you👌🏽
Can we use Chromebook for MS Office, Web Designing, Graphic Designing and to watch CZcams videos ?
Yes
Is there microsoft word on it? Or word processing in which have auto-saved on it? I used to have linux and desperate in that mode.
I think you need to do an update on this video, 1 year is a lot of time for things to change.
I feel conflicted. I only need a laptop while im out of the house or in another city, as my tablet doesn't have a touchpad which makes studying and editing docs more difficult. Chromebook can satisfy that need but I want my laptop to run one specific game. If only I can find one windows laptop within my budget.
I think best buy has a windows laptop for $100 dollars and change
Far clearer. Thank you.
Under $500 a Chromebook will be much smoother and have twice the battery life than a Windows laptop even with the same specs. Above $500 you can get basically the same performance as a Chromebook and much more versatility with Windows because you can run any program on it. So it depends on your needs and budget.
how does the battery life last longer compared to battery life on the windows? what gives?
I thought a chromebook would drain faster. This is all too confusing
no as i tested chromebook vs window opening up site to see how fast it gets there and load up youtube video.
real laptop win and chromebook has a hard time playing in 4k lag while window 10 it doesn't have that problem.
chromebook suit for low budget or student but what the point of buying 500 chromebook when you can get the better perofrmance on a real laptop. Yes you have to do what call how to make your laptop run fast youtube.
I’d go with windows as I need to download programs and stuff, chromebooks is very limited in terms of features
ThanksMuch!
I need a laptop for writing, visiting sites via chrome, using apps like google docs/drive but also pinterest and roblox. Should I just get a laptop?
excellent video
Can we give printout commands through it?
5:13 there it is, why?
This video just saved me from making a mistake. This isn't for me. Thanks!
I was planning on replacing my old Samsung Tab 2, until I upgraded my phone and received a free Chromebook as part of the contract. Not only did it save me forking out money for a new tablet, but it is perfect for me for surfing the web and watching stuff on CZcams.
Chromebooks have access to Office 365 as well as the Office Android apps which have a tailored version for the Chromebooks OS. (Now consolidated into one Office app) Although, most users can use Google's own workspace suite and edit their Microsoft files without making conversions.
They also have auto update policies reaching up to a whopping 8 years! This means the Chromebook will stay just as fast through that AUP while keeping up to date security at no cost.
Ya..
pc and laptop are way better than chromebook as they are versatile in terms of application availability and they have internal offline storage as well. The gpu in chromebook is integrated and the chrome os doesn't even support all the good games so you can't game on chromebook. You can get a laptop which runs better than chromebook at the same price
My wife is a realtor, and uses an old hp laptop, could a chromebook help her out, or should I just stick with a new laptop. She is also android (galaxy) platform
@@HardHeadMilitary Most realtors could definitely use a Chromebook! As long as their branch doesn't use any proprietary or legacy Windows software.
Most Realtors I run into use the web for most of their business and adobe for PDF documents which work just fine on Chromebook!
@@wbmillard they will work but lag.. and they can’t run roblox
My Chromebook is fast can play certain games with lagging loud speaker and use Linux the. Battery life is 7 hours lit back keyboard touch screen you can draw on it light editing it also doesn't heat up fast like most laptop and crash
If you're low on budget and want a chorme book to do the basic task you can get it
Is it still good?
Thanks 👍
Thank you so much maam
The video starts at 1:08 after a lot of unecessary bs
All videos are the same, 1st minute bs
Something important that's not mentioned here is Chromebooks come with an expiry date after which you won't get updates. You'll have to look up the details of the one you're buying because it's not on the box. I didn't know that before I bought one brand new and it was already out of date.
I keep flipping back and forth what kind of device to get. I ordered the Samsung galaxy book flex alpha 2 for 600. I get it tomorrow but they also have the high end Samsung chromebook with 4k display for 50 less. I don't currently have any sort of pc. I do have an s21 and a galaxy tab A tablet. Can anyone give me advice if I should go ahead with the computer I ordered with Windows or if I should Cancel and get the chromebook instead? I need it for light video editing
Been wanting a laptop for a while now, but it seems like people buy them for 1 specific program they need for work (Or think they need due to their lack of experience with apps) I can do music production, graphic design, stream etc. On my Galaxy s21 ultra phone...
It seems as though it's all about theoretical specs, rather than practicality. I get more and more confused.
Can I use MS office on Chromebooks
Is this true? In order to start using Chromebook, one has to submit Google Merede but avec a Laptop one does not have to submit anything?
More workstation content please
Helpful , I decided to go with a laptop , thanks
Smart Cromebooks are garbage
Thank You. I now know that a chrome-book is not what need!
Can you remote in to a Windows computer (at my office, from home) with a Chromebook? Currently I use a Windows laptop to remote in to it, and I believe the application I use to access the VPN is a Windows application. So I am wondering if there is a way to VPN into that Windows office computer from home, using a Chromebook.
Whit some apps probably
yes with chrome remote desktop
I'm just here to hear your voice, it's quite satisfying 😄😅

Wakanda wierd fetish is this
@@saheal165 I mean you a weeb so
Weirdo
weird
just get a tablet and a keyboard it would be more worth the price
Can I install any app from Google play store
What a programer is Chroombok suitable for programmers?
Ez. Only get chromebooks for school, work, or something that doesn't require much effort for a laptop. NEVER buy one for gaming. Chromebooks are nice for light emulation, but that's about it.
MS Office CAN be installed on Chromebook, or any other Linux system. It's overkill on a Chromebook, but it can be done. There are, however, much small office suites that work well on a Chromebook.
Chromebooks do not just use web apps. There's more than enough storage on an average Chromebook for many kinds of apps, and installing them is easy. Chromebook is wonderful for a distraction free platform for writers. It's easy to remove apps from a Chromebook, install one of many word processors, and have a perfect platform for writing. There's infinitely more storage than needed for uses like this.
Can u expand the rom storage in Chromebooks?
apologies for silly question but does it mean that Chromebooks can not run excel or Windows?
Chromebooks can run Windows and there are video's on how to do it.
Good explanation. That car isn't from two decades ago though. More like four or five.
They should give slot for the sims....in their future models.
I'm looking to replace my 10yr. old 17 inch HP with a new 17 inch and I don't know what to buy ? I use it mostly to listen to music through my audio system ANY HELP would be appreciated .....THANKS
Did the hardware in your HP break or is it just slow? Because there’s an easy solution to fix that.
@@hotjanuary It's basically just slow , 90% is youtube and I permanently down load nothing . Do I need to replace this ? Are todays computers that much better that I would benefit from a replacement thx ?
@@slyspy9819 I’m assuming you have windows 10. You have 3 options:
1. Fix your windows image disk by following the directions on WindowsCentral from their article “How to use DISM command tool to repair Windows 10 image” (I’d link you but CZcams loves to hide most of my comments when I leave links) so just Google the article. Windows OS files get corrupted over time and they need to be periodically replaced.
2. Install Linux. (I’d go with this option since it seems you pretty much you just use your computer for internet use). The operating system is lightweight compared to even an optimally functioning windows OS, so you’d get more performance as browsers take up a lot of processor use as well as trying to maintain the heavy Windows OS at the same time. When I tried Linux, it was faster than when I got my Windows computer brand new.
Remember to record your windows service key somewhere in case you ever need to switch back. Also remember to first create a Windows 10 USB boot repair disk so that you can easily reinstall windows if you want to go back. Instructions are on windows website. You need a USB stick with a least 8 GB capacity (you won’t be able to use it for file storage afterwards).
If you give me your pc specs (ram, hard drive space, and cpu type and speed) I can recommend a Linux OS that’s easy for Windows users to adapt to. (Linux Mint is good if you have 60 GB hard drive, 4 GB ram, and 2.something GHz CPU speed.) Installing Linux has become very easy for non-programmers in recent years. You just need an empty USB thumb drive, download a Linux OS image file of your choice, and run a free program called UnetBootin to make your USB drive capable of installing Linux.
3. You have some proprietary software like photoshop that you must absolutely use windows for, but you like the idea of a very faster web experience. Then dual booting is for you if your hard drive is large enough to support two operating systems (120 GB would be fine - allocate 80 GB to Windows and 40 GB to Linux). Follow step1 to fix your windows OS . Then when you go to install Linux, choose “install alongside Windows” and it will ask you how much space to allocate. Boot up Windows when you need your proprietary software and boot up Linux when you just want to entertain yourself.
4. You love the idea of #3 but you don’t have enough hard drive space. Buy an external hard drive, and when your Linux USB installer asks you where you want to install, tell it to install to the external hard drive. You’re going to have to have to interrupt your computer during startup every time to select “boot from USB” or else it will default to windows. Here are the common keys people press to interrupt boot up: F2, F8, F10, F11, F12. You’re going to have to Google which key it is for your computer.
@@hotjanuary Thanks brother , so much for a yes or no answer (ha) !
Does chrome book support 4 screen split
Does it qualify as computer?
thank you
The only thing I wish windows had but I understand they cant is the playstore
the chromebook actually does Support microsoft office because of the availability in the playstore
Well here I was thinking a Chromebook would be a good idea for my new PC considering my HP laptop of 3 years only packed itself in a week ago well this video just fucking shot that notion dead I'm going to stick with regular laptop PC because a chromebook doesn't seem to be worth the hype.
Chromebook promises to boot in 7 seconds yet they take 10x more
I came to the same cocnclusion . I was hoping to save some $ but glad I watched this video first. I will watch at least one other video like this, to be sure of my decision.
Which hp laptop it is that's a very short life I want mine to last longer
WOULD CHROMEBOOKS SUPPORT PRO TOOLS HD
Thanks for the Chromebooks education very instructive my strong opinion is that Chromebooks are a waste of money when a laptop can do everything you need to do stream gaming business work Microsoft office save and store files. My opinion just stick to a common base laptop
Like the video very informative crome bookS are kool, But a work from home situation monitoring and answer customers customer laptops Works best for me
,
Is this have cd dvd cdrom player or CD burner others han his so much more of his?
I have not seen one game on steam that runs on chromebook and I Like gaming so according to me windows os is better
Yeah, Chromebooks are great but it has it's limitations. Not even a comparable option gamers, unless you are into cloud gaming.
@@ravitejaknts cloud gaming even sucks with latency
@@rahma22221 It's not available in my country, but many of friends have a good opinion it. It depends on net connection. People aren't dumb to play something that bad.
Also, it's a new tech. It's like using the first version of Windows PC and saying it's not powerful enough. I genuinely believe in Cloud Gaming and it has a lot of potential. In future, few games can be so powerful that an average Joe can't even run them on their PC's or Console, where as in cloud gaming, you don't notice any difference. Whatever, it's my opinion.
Please note this is old news check date made.Chromebook Plus Revolution is NOW.
I kant using ofice in chromboks normal?
Chromebooks runs Chrome OS, which is Gentoo distro based in GNU-Linux OS-Kernel.
Thnx
Look here I’m using a chrome book for school rn and that’s probably a good reason why to get chrome book
Laptop is for like going to work if you get what I mean
the ifference is is that its hard to install windows 10
CHROMEBOOK DOES SUPPORT MICROSOFT AND ADOBe it DOES DEPENDS ON WHICH ONE YOU GET IF U GET THE CHEAPER ONES IT DOESNT COME WITH OFFICE AND IF YOU GET THE PREMUIM ONES IT COMES WITH OFFICE
Rick and morty: so.... its a tablet with extra steps?
YOU CAN NOT GAME ON CHROME BOOKS UNLESS UR PLAYING LIKE SPACE INVADERS
Time to top 10 harwears
Whos better chromebook?
Can you use word & PowerPoint on chromebooks?
any updates ?
I like Chromebook it's nice enough
Yeah a lap top would be overkill for my needs so I saved money getting a midrange Chromebook
What kind of Chromebook should I get?
Chromebook can be use for video editing?
Yes
Wevideo, Kinemaster, Capcut, Power Director, and many more can be used on a Chromebook with the Google play store.
It is okay
@BINGO Playz hiya, so what would you recommend for proper youtube editing? I only do Perfume Reviews, so it's not a case where I need all the gadgets & extras. Can you give me some options of what laptops I should I get? Thanks in advance for your help 😊😊
@BINGO Playz thanks so much for this.. But any windows options? 👀👀👀👀
chrome book = tablet with keyboard vs Laptop = Laptop
To be real i perfer chromebooks because they are less likely to have a virus
In short a chrome book is a tablet with a keyboard?
Yes
Chromebooks do supoort online ms office so you can actually do office stuff in it
One word, P O W E R
@Sparer Yahya what games do u play on chromebook? How good can it be for pubg mobile and gta san Andreas
@@mysarcasmmayoffendyou8642 pubg mobile is too high end for chromebooks. Remember chromebooks run Roblox at 10fps
2:52 Screen :)
Chrome book useing for filenecing
I prefer a laptop because I used to have a chromebook but, it didn't fit my needs.
Can we use it for Canva graphics
You definitely should have done more research before making this video...
if chromebook and regular laptop has no difference then that is weird of creating it..........I like mine laptop to be 2 in 1 and touchscreen..........people don't need anthing beside that
Laptops are more better because it supports some things i dont know Chromebook kinda suck but its fast and i used chromebook for game at 1 year
In a nutshell, buy a window or a Mac!
answer: chromebooks are slow tablets with no capslock and it's only school used
Chromebooks are basically like thin clients from the 1990s
So I should get a chromebook Cause all I'm going to do is just watch CZcams and play roblox And maybe create some games on roblox too
BASICALLY a Windows laptop excells Chromebook at everything in a real world situation.
hundred percent
!Price
I love my chromebook
Not as cut and dry as the video makes out.
how to turn of tablet mode?
