shows as 200 with EDU discount.

$200 for 4GB unit is too much IMHO. I was looking at the v2 reviews when looking at the original Galaxy Chromebook (v1) and most viewed v2 as a lesser model even if you were not interested in the 4k screen.

I'd definitely get the $200 5205U processor one if I needed a chromebook because of the screen.

But that processor is not very studly at all, it's not that much more powerful than the N4020-powered Chromebooks on SD.

4GB is fine even for a tab hoarder like myself.

edit: It's a crime that the OG Gray Galaxy Chromebook didn't come with black keys.
