Chromebooks are great for school students, college kids, and those that primarily work on the web. They mostly come with substantially less powerful internal components as compared to Windows and MacOS based laptops, but there’s a reason for that – everything happens on the web, meaning your laptop's components don’t have to stress much. The performance largely depends on browser optimization. These laptops run Chrome OS, a browser based operating system optimized for online workloads. If you find the concept appealing, here are a few you may consider.
