Great and informative video. Been thinking of getting a Cromebook just for word processing and blogging on WordPress. Would it be good for that and can you recommend a suitable Cromebook?
Bought my first Acer Chromebook 13 about 4 years ago for appx. $250. Just got a replacement (same model, CB5-311) for $180.
Always 10+ hours of battery life, I keep open a dozen tabs or more no problem and love the interconnectivity and freedom of having my settings on any other device running Chrome. Not bad for $500 over 5 years.
😎💪🏼
I know everyone misses the video and photo editing software through Adobe but would it be possible to connect it somehow through the Linux system? I know you can run Steam apps through Linux so why not Adobe Premiere?
Your videos have helped me decide to get one to try out, I picked one up today at Costco on sale from $350 for $200. Haven’t done too much on it but I plan to do brainstorming, journaling, and building some business plans which I can tell it will function perfectly for.
Hello icant use mecrosoft office like exel world powepoint
I've been using only Chromebooks since the very first one was released. Honestly, there's nothing you can't do with them.
I shot 2 hours of GoPro video that I condensed to 7 minutes. How did I edit the footage you ask? 100% on my Google Pixel 2XL, all Android apps. Video turned out pretty great IMO. I'm no professional, but it suited me. I could imagine how much easier it would be for me to use the Chromebook vs my phone.
I tried alot videos to find out my answer but you helped me out. Thank you for a straight forward review 🙌
I bought a used HP Chromebook 11 G6 to just play MP4 videos from a USB flash thumb drive off line. I have a modem connection to my desktop but was not planning to run the chromebook on line.
When I power this devise up, I get the "get started message" and a list of nearby channels. Its been years since I set up my wired connection to this modem and am having issues with the password.
Is there any way that I can just get to a desktop with this chromebook off line so I can see, open and play from the USB thumb drive I have plugged into it? Any help appreciated.
Does Hp CHROMEBOOK 11 G4, INTEL CELERON, 4GB RAM, 16GB SSD come with USB LAN Port?
So I can't edit hard-core videos of me putting square objects into round holes?
The only problem I've encountered was ascm files for an ebook I bought for class. Apart from that the chromebook is freaking amazing for students
Awesome
is it possible to connect a chrome book to my computer screen? that is connected to my windows 10? to switch from w10 to chromebook?
Hey dude can I connect a scarlett 2i2 to a chrome book ? Interface they work on a IPhone or a IPad. Help Help
well thought out, thank you big boy!
😁
Hey! Thanks for making this video. What do you think about the potential of Chromebook + Cloud Computing? By cloud computing, I mean the virtual CPUs, GPUs, and other services offered by Google, AWS ect. What I mean by this question is that Chromebook, with low specs, can rely on fast internet connection and cloud computing to complete heavy-duty computing works, such as video editing, game streaming. So that people don't have to invest on most advanced hardware specs on their PCs, which would be outdated in 2 or 3 years. Does it make sense? How feasible of this looks to you? Thanks!
Its definitely an option. I'm yet to see remote video/photo editing work well though
Yo
How do I get around my lenovo chrome book not having a USB port?
Please give a suggestion for a better device than this. I just got mine, it came very fast, scuff marks everywhere, shows movies bad, its weird. What can i get instead for around the same price.
I think long term most of the video editing software will have to create a chromeOS version. I work in finance and 3 years ago I couldn't run any of our business software into ChromeOS (accounting, timekeeping and analysis software). Now, all of them are web-based and run really smooth.
nice
??? Lightroom gravit and installing Linux apps I'm confused what you mean by not being able to edit photos or do graphic design
Right?!
My wife is a scrapbooker and prints a large number of photo at standard photo dimensions (3×5, 4x6, 5x7, etc). I would love to move her into a Chromebook but can't find an app that will easily do this like she can on her pc. For instance, being able to crop, and print 4 different 3x5s, or 3- 4x6s to a page. We have all of our photos in full res on Google Photos. Any advice would be great. Thanks!
I’m starting affiliate marketing and I’ve noticed it’s complicated on mobile. Would I be able to use links on chrome book?
RUclips used to have an online video editing tools for simple video editing, cut video, add simple basic text, add audio, all these basic tasks works pretty well for basic editing, nothing fancy, but RUclips decided to completely discontinued and remove that video editor.
I have no idea what they were thinking, not everyone need advance video editing, a simple and basic online video editor works great for Chromebook users, those who want to produce a professional video will use Windows or Mac.
this video i am watching right now, doesn't even use any special effect or professional video editing, a basic & simple video editor to cut or trim the video will do, you get my point here, not everyone need to edit their youtube video just like this video
Good point!
Thanks for a great video.
Please advise me as a beginner... Can I write an article on Google docs in a chromebook then put that article onto Amazon's kindle publishing?
Thanks again.
yes.
Yes
Can I watch movies in chrome book offline or utube and print ?
Hello thanks for information is welly halpef
I cant use mecrosoft office like exel and world an powerpoint very good ??
99% of the time I needed a laptop just for fun stuff like social media, reading, RUclips and Netflix, and I always had a PC or a Laptop, but because it was such a waste of time to get windows updated every day for more than an hour I decided to get a chromebook I saw at a poundshop for like 40 dlls, worst case scenario I was just wasting 40 bucks, but after 3 years it still works great and I don't have to worry about the battery life or the annoying daily updates.
Once this chromebook dies on me I will be getting a new one.
How many more months did your 40 bucks chromebook last?
@@krell2130 Mine 60$ Ebay 14" hp 2nd year. Love it
Number 40 makes you a Super-Dude !!!
Simple, it's better to have it and not need it than not have it and need it. Got it?
Fairpoint, but the cost differential is massive between the platforms
I been using google since 2005 and I just want to ask which brand of chromebook I have to buy, such lenovo or asus , please help what is the best one. Thank you👍
hi, what video & music player for Chrome OS?
Other than editing videos, how fast are large file transfers (HD video files)?
Just as fast as any other SSD-based machine. Your bottleneck is going to be your internet connection

How can I install android apps on chromebook

@@chizzyprogig6508 Download from Google Play Store. You can enable the play store from settings.
I work in IT - administering large networks and working with cloud technologies. I need to script (python), manage containers, and interact with my teams across all projects. I also need to be able to have remote access through a VPN to my servers and other systems for monitoring and management, and have the ability to update my ticket system and interact with technicians for the purposes of escalation and management etc. I am also a student -- studying an arts degree with a university here in the UK. That means my laptop must be able to get me through my assignments and dissertation projects, tutorials (through Blackboard) and interaction with my fellow students using voice and video. And I do this on a used Google Pixelbook. All of it.
By remoting into a Windows machine.
@@Kr00lplatinum Nope. You're wrong if you mean, "in order to do all of that you have to remote into a Windows machine." I administer large networks and work with cloud technologies (Azure and GCP). The clue is in that sentence.
Is chromebook not supported the excel file with password?
I just acquired a Chromebook OS. I watched a lot of DVD's with my portable DVD Player previously on my laptop using VLC. I have tried to download VCL onto my Chromebook from the Google Store but it doesn't work. It downloads VLC but won't run it. My question is can you download a media player to the Chromebook and if so which one.
One disadvantage of a chromebook compared to a windows machine is no easy "plug and play" of USB DVD drives for watching movies from DVD
That's sucks..
I just want the big screen and light weight
Why wouldn't I be able to do High end image and video editing on Chromebooks? Chrome OS can install Linux apps directly from version 69. So, I can easily install GIMP image editor or OpenShot Video Editor on a Chromebook and do my work.
Have you tried Openshot on a Chromebook? I didn't have a great experience running it under ChromeOS
Linux apps still aren't GPU accelerated, which means the experience is spotty to say the least.
Snapseed😅?
Can I use Google Chromebook for only Web Development, Python, Java and C++?
How to install application in web store? I do not have Google play store.

Thanks for the unbiased info.
I’ll be getting mine soon.
No problem 👍
OK, so I'm sold on purchasing my first chromebook. Can you do a video on which one I should choose depending on my needs?
Yep, check out channel for recommendations or you can chat with our team at itGenius.com
Is there a way to run an external optical drive? I homeschool, purchased Chromebooks for my kids as we were planning on doing most online. However our internet is not reliable enough in our rural area. We now need to go the DVD route. Thanks
Good question, most external storage devices work so it's possible that a USB drive might work
Some of the links work only in IE then will it work ???
Great video!!! Very good discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of Chromebooks. I believe that someday Chromebooks will be able to do these high end tasks, but for now, I agree with you, do not try to put a square peg in a round hole. I enjoy my Chromebook very much!!! Have a great day, Sir!!!
Thanks for sharing... As less and less is done on the desktop and more is done in the web - devices like Chromebooks will make much more sense
Just letting you know that since this video there's a web-based version of photoshop available. It's still in the beta stages but seems to be about the same to me. Hopefully Adobe will start moving all of their other products to the web as well.
Ohhhhh they are finally getting on board
What about storage capacity for video editing?
Can we install third party android video players from playstore?(like vlc, km player, etc.)
Would Chromebook work well with CorelDraw for designing t-shirts?

Just want to ask a question about extensions
Why is the video flipped?
he hearted the comment lol
You can use gimp for example, all Linux apps, but video edit is a little problem
Yup!
I have a Microsoft Surface pro, but I was wondering if the Samsung Chrome book works better with Google Cloud Platform?
Is that inverted cam?
I love my Chromebook! Wevideo (video editor) is via the chrome browser and Lightroom is done on my Mac. But my Chromebook is really my work / study pc. Fast and reliable.
I've tried wevideo a number of times and it's ok for very light editing but I find myself either delegating the work OR just relying on my iMac in my office instead
@@itGenius_ you forgot that Chromebooks can run full blown Linux programs. So you could run the full blown Gimp, which is an awesome image editor. You can also run VMs, and a lot more.
Hey, I'm a heavy MS Office user. Will chromebook suite me??
You may use MS Offine online or install Libre Office offline. Using MS office online may not be a consistent experience for a power user. There may be some bugs which may prevent some functions to glitch.
Hi there, could I check does Microsoft Edge ‘Read loud’ work on Samsung Chromebook 4’? I am looking to buy one for study purposes. Please help.
Hi there, great question. Pop this question into ask.itgenius.com/ and we will get Pete to answer it on his next Q&A series
does it have CMD??? to root/jailbreak smartphone??
The thing i hate about Chromebooks is
THEY HAVE NO FUCKING CAPSLOCK KEY WTFFFFFF
Press Alt + Ctrl to turn on, press Alt + Ctrl to turn off
Why couldn't a Chromebook be used as a front-end access/control to a Windows Based computer? One could connect (via USB-C connection) a very fast, high-performance windows computer that would act as a Windows software co-processor to a Chromebook thus achieving access and performance features of a Windows or Mac Computer. The Chromebook would only need to be a controller of the Windows computer attached to a large 4K Display for output. I think this will work with the right software. I also believe that Google, Apple, and Microsoft are working on Cloud-Based graphics and video compute processing that could be utilized by every Chromebook leaving high-end processing (Graphics, Video, Database, and AI...) in the Cloud.
I do something similar at home. I have a powerful desktop, and then I use Chrome Remote Desktop on my chromebook to connect through my wifi and use the desktop anywhere in the house.
It could be portable too, but will depend on how fast your internet is.
A Chromebook could be used as a remote desktop access point and it's even built into chrome now.
Remote desktop works great
Hi Pete, I was wondering if a HP Chromebook 11a recently launched in India could work for a heavy studying kind of thing for students .
most chromebooks are fine for study unless you want to open 10+ tabs at a time
Isn't a limitation of a Chromebook the expiration of support a few years after purchase?
What about PDF. How do you read and modify them?
Either Xodo or Kami are very good PDF apps that can be installed through the Chrome Web Store.
Plenty of good Chrome editors
I installed pdf it works perfectly on my chromebook
They have a MS word type app, right?
You can use Google docs inside of Google Drive
Or the Microsoft Word Android app which is surprisingly good on the Chromebook
i cant seem to launch an online learning module with my chromebook, is there a way to allow it? I have already enabled cookies. thanks.I keep getting an error saying state information lost. Thanks
@kcadden18 try turning on Linux
Is it still possible to do simple video editing? I'm already having a hard time to transfer video's longer than 30 min... Is this normal? Can someone recommend a video editor that is good for cutting parts out?
I also can't select 'high quality' when printing from my Chromebook and I really need to print in high quality.
Ihaven't had much luck but there are online video editors
So basically for general purposes Chromebook is Brilliant. For Hardcore effects photoshop / video Editing MacBook is Brilliant. And for paperweight Windows is Brilliant
Or you know..gaming...
🤣🤣🤣
and for wanting get broke buy macbooks
@Dharma Initiative What kind of school are you talking about? I can definetely see young High schoolers struggle with it, because it is a working platform. A non freshman university student should have little problems utilizing it.
Also it depends where you live and how good the internet architecture is, if you basically never use cloud based services for your work, a chromebook might be quite unusual.
Also, it is not a good primary PC for people who want gaming devices.
"not good for anything" is just wrong. just maybe not good for what you wanted to do or your experience/knowledge on how to get some things running (since linux reduces a lot of limiting factors of chrome OS)
@@Narabedla4 Its not a good device for anyone who wants to do more than browse the internet.

I teach exercise classes on zoom and I can’t adjust the camera on zoom correctly to show my full body close up like on my dell . I am too far back from the camera Can you help me ?
I’m not familiar with that specific model but I haven’t seen camera focus adjustment on chrome books before, so you might be out of luck !
Since this video is now 2 years old, can u make a new one?
Apparently you can easily add photo editing apps to a Chromebook. It works fine if you have a chromebook that is a bit more expensive. Remember they run all way up to >$1000
I personally don't understand why anyone would get a Chromebook that's so expensive when you can easily get a traditional laptop at that price that out performs it. I spent less than $90 on my 11" Lenovo Chromebook just to have something for basic tasks at work. For everything else, I use my Ryzen 9, 16GB, RTX 3060 Asus Zephyrus G14 that was around $1,300.
@@SolidSiren It was an open box from Best Buy. Zephyrus G14. The 2021 model with a Ryzen 9, 16GB RAM, 1TB NVMe, and an RTX 3060 GPU.

& that is, okay
I am considering buying a pixelbook go. Can it work well with Microsoft office? Such as PowerPoint,word, outlook etc.?

Funny, with Crostini you will definitely be able to do much more serious a/v editing. Gpu acceleration is coming out now. Been in Oz for 6 months and brought my CB with me to travel with. I love my CB but would love to have a higher end CB for the future (i5/7 8gigs Ram.) I can't find the latest and greatest, higher end lenovo and Asus CB here at affordable prices. Amazon US won't ship to Aus. Any recommendations on where to check for competitive prices?
We sell chromebooks you can chat to our team if you like
@@itGenius_ Thanks for the response, On your sight there is only one chromebook offered. And it doesn't sport the latest kernel nor does it take advantage of Crostini. Which is the very complaint I was expressing. At this point it seems like it would make more sense to pick up a Dell xps 13 on sale and throw Cloudready on it. Because the Australian Chromebooks are so out of date and a little bit overpriced when compared to US models.
Hi, a friend of mine uses a Chromebook. He says it is not possible to use a Ledger Nano or Trezor regarding his Metamask. Do you know if that is true?
I had a quick google and it doesn’t appear they are supported
Can we do trading in it ?? With all features like we have windows,, like draw resistance and support etcc...?
I did have a chromebook an Acer one with a hard drive (not ssd) and a 11in non touch screen. I gave it to my father in the end just too limiting for me. However, they do serve a purpose and for many people who are not techies like me, they will more than suffice!
👌🏼
Chromebook also has a shelf life of 6 years after introduction of each model. Not from date of purchase. After which Google will no longer support it. You can actually buy a new Chromebook that is close to being obsolete already.
You can still use the Chromebook after Google no longer supports it, just like tablets and cellphones. But it is safer to have the latest Chrome OS. Some apps might not run if the Chrome OS is not the latest version. Usually, you can tell if the Chromebook on sale is outdated based on the spec sheets. On Amazon, you can actually find out how long that product has been on sale. Avoid those been selling for a few years because of the OS support issue.
Is a chromebook worth it if you have an IPad Pro?
for some reason my chromebook deleted my account that has access to the internal hard drive. I can not get to the files inside of my chromebook. is there anyway to get to those files?
Hi there, great question. Pop this question into ask.itgenius.com/ and we will get Pete to answer it on his next Q&A series
The ability to work off line and never upload later... working desktop based is very important to me. Is Chrome even worth looking at for me? That's what I'm looking to find out. This vid is one of the closer to covering that, that I can find...
Google Docs work fine offline
I'd really like to give ChromeOS a go, not exactly a huge fan of windows on laptops. I use Chrome a lot, however, for my job I use a lot of specific software applications for various laboratory tools that only have windows versions.
Try out neverware and you can test ChromeOS via a boot USB before committing!
My brother bought me a chromebook and is sending it to me soon. As a law student, is the chromebook good for me???
Hey there. Great video on the Crome book. I am a book writer which I need a basic app-based machine for making kindle books for Amazon. I realize I cannot do hard-core editing but my iPad does that with Apple. Can I take a memory card such as an SDHC 128 GB or less, and use that to play media from camera and lets say, a voice recorder? Also, in my documents I create for kindle books, can I add photos from other apps or memory cards especially from my camera? I am planning on getting a basic model possibly tomorrow, of the Crome book, and need to know as many specks before I make the purchase. I also will be using something called Crome Vox, the text to speech application for the blind as I do have low vision and have trouble reading certain texts.
In google slides, can I add personal videos and audio to my slides? I may be making a presentation from time to time for book writing workshops in the future when Covid lifts to the point we can feel safe for travel and have more events at local libraries.
I know I’ve said a lot, but I need to know before purchasing. Thanks a lot for your great videos. Keep them coming.
You can do all of those things but I’m unsure about making kindle books for Amazon

i just got my 1st laptop, hp chromebook 14" and im so used to the access a phone gives you, i need to know if this laptop does NOT give you all that access, like currently im stuck on still setting it to my liking, but is everything in the app drawer and nothing can be pinned to the home screen?? easy access to apps without digging? i know there is an app shelf but is the laptop not meant to act a as phone? purpose is for virtual meetings and im content but is there more to the set up like a computer or does this kind of technology simplify it for computer? ive only ever really worked on old school computers and its personal so there is no crazy use, just want to utilize it in replacement of a phone im guessing. i dont know shit about them other than how to turn it on and search. im a dumbass but i dont wanna belittle the tech.
I wish I can help someone to get used to this. There is a lot of trackpad shortcuts I've found particularly useful to counter this downside.
For exemple, move your cursor onto the shelf with the trackpad and move two fingers on the trackpad, (left or right if your shelf is on the bottom) to move through your shelf. Easy to select a pined app when you're shelf start to get quite extended. Also, touchscreen is here and you've payed for it so make the most of it.
These laptops can have a great versatility ( tablet mod, USI Pen, ok battery life, numbpad, etc.) But I think there is two things to bear in mind.
- all the chromebooks aren't has versatile and it is subjective. Example: I'm lefty and the one I've ordered will come with a left offset trackpad. Very confortable for me but certainly not has much for a righty.
- these laptops are based on linux even if it's chromeOS. Linux require some tidiness for the management of files and programs. (Even more true if you run linux containers on chromebooks) Sometimes it's good to be minimalist and make the most of one app or to be limited, order start from chaos.
A bonus one is to not use Microsoft Office on these device. For my degree internship report, this suite was really limited and I've found way better alternatives for free.
PixLR is a good web interface photo editor

Depends on the machine.... sometimes the processor hangs on 4k footage and other times it's been ok
Hi, you mentioned Chromebooks are good for working on clouds, is a Chromebook suitable for working with Microsoft Onedrive? thanks
Probably not unless it runs online
Best bit about Chromebooks is the security. Every job is in a separate sandbox unlike PCs. Best tip I had was to close down every time. Don't just close the lid as you would on Windows PC cos it takes so long to close and open. Chromebooks close and open in a few seconds and every time you open it checks for bugs and upgrades in the background.
Last thing is the ease of use having a keyboard, pad and touchscreen on the same machine.
You never knew you wanted it till you tried it
Will never go back to a machine without touchscreen
Yeah, also you forgot gaming. In other words it's not a gaming device, right?
Nope
