I bought this for $200 one year ago, new. Solid device, but I feel like the newer model is probably right around $200 so I don't I don't know if I would go for last year's goods refurbished for only a $50 savings.
Plus with Google announcing that they are sun setting chromeos and merging it with Android I would kind of like to see where that shakes up before I bought any further Chromebooks.
That $100 one though looks pretty tempting for my little girl - She's been using a Chrome OS Flex laptop that I built for her a couple of years ago, But it doesn't run Android apps.

I am a big fan of ChromeOS and IMHO... when google merges the two OS, they will keep these Chromebooks with ChromeOS only and only the newstuff will have this new talked about OS... and that goes the same with an android tablet.
NOW, about this deal. "heavy sigh".... the CPU is weak... The G99 CPU is about equal to the 7c Gen 2.
I say the G99/SD695/SD 7c Gen2 are close enough that I consider them equal. I have been saying for the last year... the weakest CPU you should buy is G99/SD695/SD 7c Gen2 in today's market... been saying this for 1.5years!!!
I still say this is a deal! It is a great streaming device. And has the app store. But realize this is a chromebook... and google wants you to use Chrome for everything so I believe you can only stream in HD if you go through your Chromebrowser.
I have the HP equivalent that was purchased over two years ago and I have a 7C gen 1 not gen 2. And it is used daily for streaming.
I would get his before a Tab S9+... in a heartbeat.

BUT... you must use the Chrome browser to stream content in HD on a Chromebook... so go to netflix.com... disney.com... etc....
I use unethical websites which have alot of popups. Chrome on a PC use to have the best popup blockers. Basically, you can FORCE INSTALL "ublock origin" as a chrome addon... google will try to make you drop it but you just need to continue and force install it.... it seems to have hurt google's advertisement dollar. Just a few months ago, you could have installed it with no issues at all.
When you stream unethical websites... you don't have to worry about Widevine Level 1 support... only with paid streams.
So the tablet I am talking about belongs to my partner and it is used daily to steam stuff BUT not from any paid streaming sites.
