Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 review: Less fun for a better price
Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 review: Less fun for a better price-February 2024

Are there any alternatives?

Google’s Pixelbook Go is the main alternative to the Galaxy Chromebook 2. It has longer battery life, a 1080p webcam, better speakers, and is more portable. It’s the better option for most people, and even costs $50 less when similarly configured.

  The Asus Chromebook Flip C436 starts at $523, meanwhile, and comes with a larger 14-inch screen, smaller bezels, and better port selection.

  

How long will it last?

These days, you can expect a Chromebook to last a few more years than a Mac or Windows laptop. The Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 comes with a standard one-year warranty.

  

Should you buy it?

Yes, especially if you love the design and color of this laptop. I could see someone picking up the $550 base configuration as a light computer for web browsing and the occasional Zoom call. The Pixelbook Go has better battery life and a few higher-end features, but the Galaxy Chromebook 2 is one of the better Chromebooks to come out in the past year.
