Thank you so much for this video. I was always told that Apple was the easiest. I disagree, I would never have another Apple computer. I fell across the Chromebook accidentally but now I think I’m keeping it and you’ve given me encouragement. I appreciate the information.

I feel like I need a Windows PC as my main desktop workhorse, but I can't justify spending $1000 on a laptop that I would use sparingly when I'm out of the house. I think Chromebook Plus laptops are an amazing companion, I can't wait to get one

Mine doesn't pinch zoom for some reason

I have a 10 year old Acer spin 15 that I am still using! It has NEVER had a virus,a serious crash,wait time clowning around for updates,no video issues and the speakers are great.had a touch screen that flips into a tablet.All it took was about a week to get familiar with it.finally getting a new one, but to get the features I have with this one, it is going to be about $600 or more.get away from windows,and you will never regret it.

I'm a retired desktop / network administrator (Windows) and I am transitioning to exclusively Chromebook but not Android (yet?). I've actually been using a Google Pixelbook since they came out in 2017 and love it, but had shelved it in favor of a MacBook Air for a while. I just miss my lovely Pixelbook... That keyboard, that keyboard, that lovely keyboard.

Just curious. What Chromebook did you go with?

I used a Chromebook and took me 45 mins to unzip email attachment then rezip it and send it, after 2 months trying to make it work I simply sold it for loss

The editing for this video is so jarring and terrible.

Team Chromebook!!!

if you activate and include linux apps with chrome os i dun see an issue?

If you like chrome os try fedora Linux faster os on any hardware. By the way Chrome OS does run the Linux kernel. The biggest downside to Chrome is that it's only supported up until a certain point in time where as with Linux you'll get support forever.

I got a 16 inch ASUS Chromebook Plus with 12th gen i3, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD and it was "open box" clearance at Best Buy for $366 after all the taxes and stuff. I'm typing this comment on it right now. It's been incredible and I love that it has a touch screen which my old Macbook Pro didn't have. As a bonus I checked the settings and the battery cycle was 0 meaning I basically got a brand new machine that was opened once, put right back in the box, and sold as used at a massive discount.

Thank you for an informative video. I just bought a new Chromebook Plus, and I can't find any built-in ability to mirror my Android phone on my Chromebook - a capability you mentioned in the video. The phone hub doesn't mirror the phone screen. Please explain how you do it.

I ditched my pc laptop for an iPad Pro to run whatever I have😂

I have the hp 11 g6 ee with 4gb ram/ 32gb rom, touchscreen and it runs faster than my windows laptop which is very surprising so yeah google forever i guess. advantage that i have is i use a android tablet which make file sharing so easy!!! thanks for the great video! appreciated

Being in the education line, it just works like you said. A lot of things are web-based now and Chromebook has always been ready for all of that for many years now. I think when you use technology so long you want something simpler in the end. My 3 year old Chromebook tablet delivers still especially after the latest update. It's a lot faster now and I can do all of my daily tasks; emails, presentations, note taking, office docs, Canva, sync my Google Drive, pair my Android phone, watch videos, video calling, texting and run apps from Play Store like Whatsapp/Telegram. It's complete and it generally has a long battery life. I have no complaints.

Unless you do video editing, you don't need anything but a Chromebook. Even that is changing. Remember being in school, doing that essay and suddenly you lost everything? Happened to all of us. That's never happened to me using a Chromebook.

Bro hi how to install capcut my Chromebook

Chromebooks have definitely gotten better. I have a low spec 2 core N4000 celeron with a 4GB ram Chromebook that I got back in 2020 and surprisingly enough, it works better now in 2024 than it did in 2020 since google has been adding a bunch of useful features lately, and best of all they also made ChromeOs more aesthetically pleasing so it no longer looks like a toy like it did back in 2014-2022 I do find it crazy how google will support my 2 core 4.8 Watt chromebook until 2029

As much as I love windows i switched to chromebooks and its been a blast. So much easier and cheaper to run my business.

"Follow up boss is great, kv core is great but I don't use either." ugh

I recently switched from Mac OS to Chromebook. Granted I do not do a lot of things that most do as far as editing videos and such. I am a safety inspector so I purchased the ASUS Chromebook CM30 2-in-1 with a stylus (pen) and a keyboard attachment 8GB Ram and 128GB storage for $300 and I have to say that it took me a few minutes to get use to the keyboard but other than that it does everything that I need it to do and more. Additionally, I switched to an android phone and it all just comes together smoothly.

I have laptop and do use it but i wanted something i can use on bed or couch that doesnt get too hot. Did use tablets but i hated typing on touchscreen and keyboard options were good as i wanted to use it in bed and on couch. The few co-workers told me try chromebook if i wanted use it for absolute basics like web browsing, watching videos, chatting with friends, some office projects i can do. So far after a full year i been very happy with it. I had issues with messengers aps something lagging and not loading but thankfully few of them worked in web browser so it helped with that problem.

The background music is a little distracting

The biggest issue I have as a broker in Texas with all of this is that agents now have to be worried about what they're making WHILE making offers on behalf of their buyers. It is putting our interest as buyer agents/brokers who want to earn a living in with our buyers' interest in trying to purchase a home. We should not be mixing the two! Previously there was transparency because we knew what we were going to make - it was an advertised percentage in MLS, and we could discuss that with our buyers if we needed to. That included if it was a lower amount than the norm OR a higher amount than the norm (i.e., a bonus). Now we are negotiating our fee alongside our buyers' offer. My own self-interest as to what I'm going to make should NOT be part of my buyer representation. But now sadly, it's going to have to be. One of my agents has already had to deal with a counter offer where the seller said I'll accept X amount for my house with a 3% commission OR X amount for my house with a 1% commission. It's just gross to have to present that back to a buyer. EXP's stance isn't helpful to our industry and isn't a "do unto others" mentality at all imo. :(

Great video and I can relate to what you’re saying. I’ve been practicing law for 29 years and for the bulk of that time I’ve used windows desktops and laptops. The legal profession has become more and more web based in recent years so I’ve started using a Chromebook that I had sitting around basically collecting dust. The Chromebook works so much better that I am considering upgrading to one of the 2n1 Chromebook Plus devices. New subscriber!

Neat video. I agree fully with you that Windows has become bloatware. Part of the problem is Microsoft's divided interests. It only makes 12% of profit on Windows but it makes 50% on cloud, server, and Office services. Guess where their attention will be? That's why Windows is becoming a bloated do-all platform. It's becoming less of an operating system and more of an interfacing with Microsoft's servers, constantly phoning home and asking (demanding) more of your personal information to do basic tasks. It's become a real pain, which is why Windows 11 still has not overtaken Windows 10 in market share despite being on the market for three years. I think if it were not for the Chromebook you would probably like Samsung Dex. It projects a desktop-like experience all from the phone plugged into a monitor. I hear Google is working on their own desktop mode for Android 15. While early examples are nowhere near Dex, some speculate that Google will eventually port Chrome OS to phones. One day you may not even need the laptop. The phone will do it all.

Nice video - you've had the Chromebook revelation that many have already had and for lots it's still ahead of them! The ASUS Chromebook Plus CM3401 Flip looks good, hoping to try one out sometime and see how it compares to some of the other Chromebook Plus models I've tested. What are you using for most of your video editing between the mentioned Luma Fusion and Capcut?

Video editing and photography do not come close to as good as a macbook w/ any m series chip. Now if you are doing super light video editing/photo editing, most relativley new computers can handle that & since how optimized chromebooks are, you typically have a lot less bloat and backround ram&cpu usage so it can be/seem quicker. But it is not touching an m series mac. Also big files, scrubbing through videos, playback multi layers sound/editing projects will be in a different universe with an m series mac vs a chromebook. Apple silicon is top notch. I do agree wholeheartedly though that for the normal person, there is no better bang for the buck computer than a chromebook. The way chome OS is optimized is a thing of beauty. Downloadable software is the difference maker. If you don't run software on your computer and are mostly a browser person, chomebooks are for sure the way to go.

your fathers 2014 Chromebook (skip >> 7m ) wont be receiving security updates any more,,, a bit dangerous in this day and age !! . maybe ,,,, buy him a modern chrome book .... which by the way has 10 years of support,

It was really good hearing this from someone who is making good money as a business man and doing an extremely fair (and intelligent) assessment of the three major platforms. I work as an IT Manager for an investment firm and have run a side business (technology based) for 30 years and this is one of the best reality based explanations. BTW... I have all three platforms and they all have specific uses in my personal and business life as I love technology. Anyway.... loved the video.

Great video! Check the latest Asus Expertbook CX54 just now coming out. It looks spectacular!

Very interesting perspective! I love the concept of a Chromebook, but I gotta say, I love my Macbook Air M1 for how smooth and quick everything feels. Everything that I do is web based, so I'll definitely be giving it another shot in the future.

I've had a chromebook for 4 or 5 years now. Its perfect for all I have todo on when out and about. The android apps are great! The one thing about Google is that they discontinue products and serves very often, and not much you can do about it. I really liked the google play music, google podcast, and google 1 vpn.

noice i love it

Can I chime in with something relevant? I very recently jumped out of the Apple ecosystem to a Chromebook (which I upgraded to 2tb of storage) and heavily make use of the fact that modern Chromebooks also have a full install available of Debian Linux. Between Debian's entire repository, Snap, and Flakpak options at your fingertips, you can use pretty much any native Linux desktop app, well, natively! Once installed, no cloud necessary. So I spent a little more money for a higher end device, and having a triad of platforms seamlessly working together on one device (ChromeOS + Android + Linux) is just ridiculously spectacular.

Question is, what Chromebook are you using? I'm thinking of getting one for my self for international travel.

Awesome 😎👍

Precise summary! Good Job and keep it up 👍 You earned a subscriber 🤝

Chad, EXCELLENT information sir!

I did much the same thing, switching from Apple to ChromeOS but went nuts and got an Android phone, watch and a nice upper-midrange Chromebook ($450 😁) but it didn't stick and I switched back to the "old familiar" Apple ecosystem. I do like the Android system a lot, though, and may try going in piecemeal this fall when the new gear comes out. I do still have a Chromebox and screen that I might pull out of the closet and warm up in the mean time. Great video, thanks. 👍

basically chromebook is fine just i expect Google would offer us better offline apps, their office suite apk is far back, you rely on internet for better office and actually i expect chromebook would run apps non playstore natively, not side loading

Same sort of story as me. It started with "What's all the buzz about pixel phones" I got a second hand one and loved its work flow. Then "How bad can a Chromebook be?" So I got an entry level second hand one off gumtree. I've never looked back, they're amazing. The integration is fantastic and the apps are getting better all the time. As you say full HD video editing, I'm not a gamer but I understand they're not bad at gaming. Google Docs took a bit of getting used to but once I understood how to import docs and sheets into Google. Glad I made the switch. Google android apps, we store and PWAs are great

Enjoyed that video. Subscribed 👍🏻

What do you think of KVCore's new branding as BoldTrail? I'm on the fence about switching over. Right now, I'm using Real Geeks and Follow Up Boss together. BoldTrail claims to have made improvements to their platform, with more on the way. Have you noticed any changes or improvements yourself?

Thank you for the valuable ideas and content.

Glad I found this channel before it gets huge. Nice review. Keep it up; you have a lot of potential. 👍

good info, thanks Chad!

I see the title but its sounds like a apple endorsement

90 day program please!
