Samsung may have only released the Galaxy Chromebook 2 in March, but it’s already discounting the laptop. you’ll grab the Galaxy Chromebook 2 with an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage for less than $450 directly at Samsung, and that is $100 off its normal price. If you raise to the model with a Core i3 processor, 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, you’ll pay only $500 and save $200 on its normal price. It’s worth noting that there is no trade-in necessary to urge these discounts, unlike most deals you will find direct from Samsung.
The original Galaxy Chromebook was a high-end machine that, looking back, was probably overkill. Samsung realized that and brought the laptop backtrack to earth with the changes it made within the Galaxy Chromebook 2. the planning is usually an equivalent, but Samsung removed the built-in stylus and therefore the fingerprint sensor from the laptop entirely.
While those were nice perks, they are not necessary to form a solid Chromebook. Samsung also removed the 4K display and instead used a 1080p QLED panel on the Chromebook 2 which, while being a downgrade, looks impressive nonetheless.
The best processor you will find on the this laptop is that the 10th-gen Intel Core i3. it isn’t as powerful because the Core i5 within the original, but it still does an honest job completing standard Chromebook-friendly tasks like handling dozens of open Chrome tabs. and that we appreciated its long battery life — the Galaxy Chromebook 2 lasted nearly 12 hours in our testing, so it should carry you thru your work day easily.
Overall, Samsung edited its original machine right down to the higher, more practical Galaxy Chromebook 2. it’s going to still get on the expensive side for a Chrome OS laptop, but its solid performance, attractive design and above-average display are well worth the extra cash — especially for people who plan on using this laptop as their daily driver.
