Chromebooks are on the rise. Chrome OS machines have been selling like hotcakes since 2020, and they ve proven to be reliable and often affordable laptops for anyone learning or working from home. But many people are still asking themselves: Is a Chromebook really a good choice for me?

Even if you could, the description says its compatibility is limited to devices capable of using mobile data (5G and 4G LTE), and that its only available for Samsung-branded Windows hardware: the Galaxy Book and Galaxy TabPro series.
