Have never done a Chrome Book before but we wanted to have something for convenience around the house and for travel and shopped for quite a while to find the right combo of features at the right price. We're very happy a couple of months in with this while I wouldn't get it for anything but casual use...I don't know how we lived without it now! I come from Dos/Windows/Android systems and there was and is still a bit of adjustment needed and my guess is ios users would have more of an adjustment.
We're very happy with the screen quality and the touch screen functions...just getting to scroll easily is a major plus. Makes a nice bridge between tablets and pc's and I have a real keyboard. The 12 hour battery means I don't even bring my adapter with me most places...and since it is usb C on the charger...I can use a cord on anything to top it up away from home or in the car. I wish the screen would do a full foldover so I could really use this as a tablet...but those seem quite a bit pricier. Streaming video and youtube with a decent connection is just fine but a gamer would want something more. My wife enjoys doing her email and pictures of family and the ease of use and uses this exclusively now.
Obviously there are some high end Chrome books and some cheaper ones too...but we had modest demands and got them for a modest price and couldn't be happier with the choice.
