Great price and remember this is about the same size as an 11" one just less wasted bezel.
This CPU is not bad but only dual core. Fast enough for a Chromebook. 4GB soldered DDR not great and soldered SSD as well. So no upgrading this.
The review says the screen is good but the speakers not good.
I just got an open box for $160 and it scores 46k on Octane. eMMC is not an SSD.
Pretty nutty Octane score for the price, it has 1080p, USI stylus support, great keyboard (no backlight), and overall it feels very solidly built. To top it off, mine was only in Satisfactory condition but it looks brand new.

My I3 1115g4 scored 59,000 so that is not bad at all. It also had nvme and 8GB DDR.
I'll gladly save the hundreds more that you paid and take a 22% loss on the Octane score. 😂
I paid $270 open box. It was worth it for me I was tired of being limited to 9 tabs on my 4k external monitor which is plenty large enough for more. I paid more for the DDR not really the CPU though this Pentium was not an option back then.
But with Chrome you sort of waste money going above a Pentium like you bought. You just do not get that much more from it.
Got it for $175 before tax, openbox excellent certified. Looking forward to trying this out to see how it performs. My first and only CB (Toshiba Chromeboook 2) was going strong for 6 years, since 2015, until the battery wouldn't hold a charge and no more updates. Hoping this is a deal that went under the radar on SD!
New ones are OOS.
But the open-box excellent ones are down to $128 now. That's a steal for a Pentium/touch screen chromebook. Mine works great with a USI pen, so it's a very good drawing tablet. Got a second one to have around the house.

This will be for my kid. If it survives 1 year of 4 th grader use, i will call it par for the money.

Open-box fair available for $117.
