HP Chromebook Review

Welcome back ladies and gents. Well the title for this evening's post is very self explanatory so I'll get right to the point.

Last month I finally bought a much anticipated gift for myself. I have been looking at laptops for the past 6 months knowing that I would be getting one at the end of summer. Of course I went and looked at Mac first but there was just no way that I was okay with spending so much of my own money on something that I could get for a lot less and that would work equally as good. So I started doing some more research and found something that is called a Chromebook.



A Chromebook is a laptop that is entirely powered by Google Chrome. Considering that I'm a blogger, soon to be student and an internet addict, I was intrigued. So I went into PC World to have a look at it in person. First of all, the colour immediately caught my eye. I then looked at the graphic quality, storage, battery and all the other nooks and cranny's. I later decided that I was going to buy it.



I went in to ask all the questions I had about it and the man who was helping me was so genuinely happy to answer all of them. First if all, the HP Chromebook cannot download ITunes or Microsoft. So if you have an ipod or iphone, then maybe this isn't the laptop for you. And if you're reliable on Microsoft, then maybe that should be another factor to consider. But I have a Samsung Galaxy and I use Google Docs now. So this was perfect. The laptop also comes with a built in antivirus which is permanent and does not need to be renewed every year. 



I was completely sold and bought it for 319 euro. I've been using it for just over a week now and I fall in love with it more each day. It turns on and off so quickly because it doesn't have desktop programmes slowing it down. The chrome store allows you to personalise your pages, tabs and desktop to whatever suits your personality. AND IT'S BLUE!



For an everyday internet user I could not recommend this more. I can't believe it took me this long to get one!


Much Love,
Shannon.
