Some other specs to know are a standard headphone jack, two USB 3.0 ports, a microSD slot, and a 2.8GHz Quad Core Intel Celeron CPU. In addition, several reviewers noted that the laptop is an incredible value, noting how fast it runs.

It’s easy to carry at just over three kilograms and can last all day with a 10-hour battery. Several reviewers marveled at how long this laptop could last, with one reporting that the battery life was “excellent – the best I’ve ever had.” Chromebooks may be light, but they’re still fast and useful for a variety of things.
