I prefer 14-15". I find smaller screens do not provide a good page view for me personally. I don't believe there is any technical reason for their comment. So long as the resolution is high quality, size should be a preference. Larger screens generally add to the price though.

A very good deal on a chromebook with a great display. The color gamut is 100% sRGB, not sure about the brightness but as far as I know it's 300-350 nits.

Very good deal, if it has SSD instead of eMMC or at least upgradable/an empty slot for that.

This is a dual-core. Probably the fastest dual-core that AMD has ever made since it's Zen 3, but they disabled 6 cores on the die to make it. Embarrassment

So new/rarely used that there is no Passmark score.

Why is that size better? Genuine question - is there something that makes ChromeOS better/worse for those sizes? vs. a windows or macOS at 14"?

IMO it's subjective and personal preference. The sweet spot for me is 13" -- I find that to work well enough both at a desk and on the couch on my lap. Smilie

how long updates?
https://support.google.com/chrome...py=%2Cacer lists "Asus CP514-3H" (closest match to the full model of "CP514-3H-R2D2") as being updated until Jun 2030.
