With its Haswell-based Intel processor and 4GB of RAM, the Chromebook 11 has the speediest setup you'll find this side of the $1000 mark. If you need something with more horsepower than the Toshiba Chromebook 2 but don't want to shell out the cash for the Lenovo system, Dell's Chromebook 11 is your best option for great performance in an affordable but still pleasant-to-use package. Manufacturer's website and purchasing info: įull review: ThinkPad Yoga 11e: A hidden Chromebook gem The best Chromebook for under $300 Between that, the standout hardware, and the versatile form, there's an awful lot to like about this device. (It's also more compact than Toshiba's, at 11.6 in.) As I've noted before, the quality of the screen means a lot more than the resolution in these systems.Īnd while its stamina is just okay, the Yoga 11e has commendable performance that should keep both casual users and power users satisfied.
It has a lower resolution than what Toshiba provides, at 1366 x 768, but it still looks good and is an immeasurable step up from almost every other Chromebook in the sub-$1000 range. Like the Toshiba model, Lenovo's Yoga 11e uses a higher-end IPS screen that's easy on the eyes. If you can deal with the heft, you'll get a laptop that's on another level in terms of quality and durability. But let's be honest: Most Chromebooks aren't exactly pinnacles of design. It's rugged - and thus a bit heavy and clunky compared to other Chrome OS systems. The only real downside to the Yoga 11e's body is that it's not exactly what you'd call sleek.
It also has a fantastic keyboard and trackpad - hands-down the best you'll find on any Chromebook under $1000. The Yoga 11e Chromebook is in a league of its own when it comes to build quality, with none of the flimsy surfaces or cheap-feeling materials you frequently see on lower-end laptops. The system is fully convertible, meaning you can use it in a traditional laptop configuration or tilt the screen back to use it as a stand-supported slate or fully flattened touchscreen tablet. If you're willing to spend a little more - $455, to be precise - Lenovo's ThinkPad Yoga 11e Chromebook delivers an awesome midrange user experience in an unusual form.

The Chromebook 2 has exceptional speakers, too, along with reasonably good build quality and respectable stamina. The one being described here - and the one you want - is the "Full HD" version, model CB35-B3340.)

(Note that Toshiba also sells a cheaper version of the Chromebook 2 that lacks the 1080p IPS display.
