Product Information

But given the higher than expected numbers from the latest Pentium processor, I figured to make an exception. Enjoy access to all of your Google Drive files, a rich library of Google Play apps, and multiple layers of security protection. Next-level connectivity: With all the ports and connectors you’ll ever need, the IdeaPad 5i Chromebook 14" accommodates virtually any peripheral with its audio jack, USB 3. The 51wh battery lasts an exceptionally long time on a Chromebook even under intense usage – which, given that it is mainly running the equivalent of a web browser and maybe a mobile app, seems to make a lot of sense. While manufacturers such as Acer have released 16-inch Chromebooks over the years, they have been few and far between.

A full battery lasts 10 hours, so you can get things done all day without charging, talk to Google to manage different tasks on Chromebook, and stream your shows and tunes on a 14" IPS FHD touchscreen display, featuring the crystal-clear Waves-certified sound system. No, it’s not ideal and it probably tests the ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) of the processor more than anything else. I was happy to see the inclusion of a privacy shutter, allowing you to close the camera lens when you aren’t actively using it.Stream content on the IdeaPad 5i Chromebook Gen 6 (14” Intel) at Full HD on its IPS touchscreen display, featuring narrow three-sized bezels so you get more screen real estate.

For instance, in my testing with a random sample of apps known to be available on Android apps (I tested approximately 150 popular apps), I found that only about 70-75% of those apps were available at all, and of the one that were, many did not work as expected on a desktop environment. It is on the heavy side and doesn't have the brightest display, but if you want a large Chromebook, you can't do better than this.Talk to Google to manage tasks on Chromebook and stream your shows and tunes on a 14\ IPS FHD touchscreen display and crystal-clear, Waves Audio-certified sound system.

Again, this is a super simple test but installing development tools and testing how long it takes to compile code is likely beyond the scope of most Chromebook users.And on that definition, Chrome OS meets the status quo – it does provide basic computing and web browsing, but by substantially changing the way those users compute, and by limiting their access to access popular mainstream software, Google walks a fine line with the concept.
