Why would it be sold by Samsung if it's that horrible?

...because Chromebooks are made to operate mostly "within browser" and since the world is WiRelEsS now, a strong business move would be to push T H E C L O U D and have customers' files "safe in the cloud" and produce an entire laptop computer that does this. It's been like at least 7 years now since the Chromebook was released.
The Cloud is (are?) server farms in buildings where they have your data saved....Whiiich is only accessible by you (or so we're told); This amounts to you using a computer without over-storing software alongside your millions of videos etc.

In my opinion the Galaxy Chromebook 2 for $350 (EPP/EDP price) is a better product, but cost a lot more. I repost the reason I ruled out the Chromebook Plus as below:
1. Very weak 2017 CPU (equivalent to N3160 on Acer Chromebook 14 CB3-431)
2. Software support ends in June 2024
3. Well known hinge problem with some reporting cannot power on after one year
4. No HDMI port (but can use USB-C to HDMI if you really want it)
The specs look quite good though at this price:
1. FHD display
2. 12.2 inch
3. Lightweight, battery life
If you are willing to pay $350 for a Chromebook the Galaxy Chromebook 2 has better specs and will be supported until 2028. Strangely, the S pen works with the Chromebook Plus but Galaxy Chromebook 2 only works with USI pens which Samsung doesn't include or even make/sell.
FYI the $350 Galaxy Chromebook 2 is for I3, 8GB RAM, 128GB storage.
The low-end Galaxy Chromebook 2 with Celeron, 4GB, 64GB is only 315. But in my opinion for $35 it is very much worth the upgrade.
