"Con:
Screen: This is the first time that I can say that on a machine that I otherwise enjoyed that there was a single feature that could be a deal-breaker, but the screen is genuinely that bad. It isn't because of the resolution because most chromebooks, especially in the budget range and at 11.6 inch screen size, all have the same resolution. It also isn't because it is a TN panel because the Samsung Chromebook 3 had a manageable TN panel that didn't break its usability. This panel is just wretched. It has ridiculously specific viewing angles. If you don't hit it spot on with your eyes then colors wash out and text gets blurry at the top or bottom of the screen. It's so grainy, washed out, and pixelated that it unfits the device for almost all of my primary needs. The brightness even seems less than the Samsung Chromebook 3. I am just flabbergasted that they selected such a bad panel that feels like a step back from their best-selling previous model. The screen was literally so bad I wondered if I had a defective model, but my experience seems consistent with the limited reviews available for this machine."

I've had a Sammy Chromebook 3 I bought on BF 4 years ago for roughly the same price and it's served me well that entire time. The Intel 4020 is nothing to scoff at in these Chromebooks and it will feel plenty snappy inside of Chrome OS.
