Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Go Review

[@StevenRocketsGrimmer]

Nothing like a middle finger restart. Works every time.

[@YumeFox]

That display alone is a huge dealbreaker for me. 1366x768 in 2022 is just plain bad. They should've put in an HD Display. If they'd leave out the LTE Connectivity, the difference in price wouldn't even be that bad and it'd make this notebook a lot more interesting.

[@pbdivyesh]

Thanks your comment stopped me from watching videos about this piece!

[@InsurgeGaming]

1366x768 is HD for a 14 inch screen. the DPI would be similiar to 1080p on a 24 inch screen.

[@jakeroscoe8238]

@@InsurgeGamingThat’s a moot point though considering 1080p has been the standard now for awhile. You get 13, 14 and 15.6 inch laptops that have 1080p displays at a minimum. Hell, my ASUS G14 has a 2560x1600p 165hz screen, and that’s only a 14 inch device. I had a Samsung laptop with a 1366x768 screen in 2009/10 - I haven’t seen a 1368x768 display for a long time, I genuinely though even the cheapest laptops came with 1080p displays nowadays, albeit 60hz, low brightness (ala 250 nits) displays.

[@danielruud224]

Would never buy this, but got one free when I purchased my phone, so for the price of (free) I got to say I'm happy with it!

[@CocoaDivineTV]

Lol love this! Thank you!

[@signalfire15]

Got mine free too lol

[@steveguy3]

Worth it for the free 45w charger, i could choose between the a23, tab a8 and book, didn't have a 45w charger for my tab s7 so there you go

How do i get a free one what laptop do i purchase

[@xXxIonutCSxXx]

got one of these puppies as a gift from samsung as a bundle for buying a galaxy s21 wich i payed 390€, now that's a good deal! Happy to see it's usable at least :)

[@randomdaveUK]

They're doing the same deal this year with the new Samsung flip. Very tempted but I don't know when I'd use the Chromebook tbh

[@xXxIonutCSxXx]

@@randomdaveUK Well, Keep in mind that it has infinite battery, and it is very lightweighted so you could take it places

[@fakhramuhammad5603]

Is it touchscreen

[@xXxIonutCSxXx]

@@fakhramuhammad5603 no, it's not

[@edfannon1119]

Hi Chris, I'm back again after your advice on my sony phone a while back. Thanks. Now looking for a chrome book. Great reviews as always.

[@frettystories]

I've gotta be honest dude, your personality is awesome for this type of content. The fact that you even said the words Harry Potter BDSM fantasy was like WHOA. Lol. You're my kind of dude.

[@Kirby5588]

Dang that price point is brutal. I have a Lenovo Flex 11 from 2018 with an N5000. Very similar specs to this and back then it cost $300 usd. The only thing different is the Samsung one has LTE. Samsung is crazy to charge $500 for these older specs.

[@Carnyzzle]

the extra $200 is definitely because you're paying for the 4G

[@danielspain2073]

its 100 on amazon now

[@antx24]

if you get it renewed it's $102,so used. new it is still $309. stop spreading false information.@@danielspain2073

[@Spunki.s]

I got it for $88 dollars at Walmart yesterday so far not bad everything is on clearance and roll back price

[@antx24]

Lies

[@Xiang-u8w]

I got it for free

[@Spunki.s]

@@antx24 nope not a lie lol

[@antx24]

​@teletastyles7921 considering it's normally $350 and didn't get it with a deal from verizon,ATT or the like. I find it highly unlikely.

[@antx24]

was just at walmart and there is no such deal. I also looked online with nothing to be found. @@Spunki.s

[@jayiix]

thanks for this excellent review. Verizon will be gifting me this for free after combining my cell and home internet. I I currently use my New Lenovo Laptop for almost everything, I also have a Lenovo Tablet and a 2013 Macbook pro that i plan on getting refurbished (a few keys on the keyboard need repairs)

[@WHH15]

Thank you for this! I may get one its 50% off with my phone carrier. $175

[@gnu-lynx2501]

1366x768 is a perfect resolution for 14". 112 pixels per inch need no scaling and look good out of the box. Especially in linux, all the screen fonts can be used as they were meant. It may even be more power efficient than a higher resolution and hertz screen. And thanks to the chromebook community it is possible to use these fine quality computers with linux as well. Written on Devuan flavoured linux with alsa audio (community built kernel with CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_SOF_DA7219_MAX98373_MACH option, simple but missing in mainstream kernels) in the 10th hour of the last battery charge. Feels good. Get one too in 2024! :)

[@CECE1839]

The Samsung Chromebook GO LTE version is okay for light browsing and portability to access the Internet on the GO while traveling...

[@DeadPiixxel]

a smartphone can do that too

[@luckynovak2460]

1:48 caught me so off guard💀

[@photobyTaps]

Great presentation thank you. I'd like a Chromebook with a screen like my old Galaxy Note 4

[@andre-arthur]

Display could be better and LTE connectivity seems like something they should cut on a budget device (specially with the possibility of just using a phone hotspot)

[@JohnStopman]

1366x768 is only useful on a 11.6" screen. FHD + a high-quality TN-screen would have been the better choice.....

[@antx24]

not at it's current price.

[@petergibson2318]

I received a £60 voucher from a company (from another transaction) but it could only be spend with that company. I decided to buy this Chromebook Go (refurbished) for £130. Minus the £60 voucher it cost me only £70. Almost as good as new and I'm very happy with it. Mind you, I had to buy SOMETHING with that voucher!

[@Nickelectric]

Is it polluted with Samsung bloatware

[@othinus]

That fanfiction joke got you a like from me.

[@Pytchblend]

we need more chromebook and tablet reviews

[@scottlewis2653]

The new Asus Chromebook Flip sounds good. Could u make a video on that? It has a Mediatek kompanio chip

[@ChristopherGibson-i8j]

Got one for £100 brand new from FB market place so im happy with it.

[@CakeFine]

Might as well get a half decent laptop for that price or a tablet

[@hillbillyohio513]

How would this compare to my Galaxy Book S? I'm thinking about buying one of these but my Galaxy book s still does what I need!

[@Mouton373]

The Book S is still much better

[@SproutyPottedPlant]

Aww bummer about that display, viewing angles look ready bad! Hmm I wonder if any DAWs work on Chrome OS.

[@fionakirk530]

I got one coming I got it free from purchasing A Samsung Galaxy S 24 Ultra so I'm good with that.

[@radiocaf]

I don't know what Samsung were thinking with this product. They made a Chromebook that does nothing you'd expect a Chromebook to do, and the little it does do, it terribly. They've given it a 180° hinge, but no touchscreen... Pointless! They've given it a screen that is completely terrible even by 2016 standards, so media consumption is a horrible experience. Absolutely no thought went into the design of this Chromebook and it shows. £400 is frankly offensive.

[@antx24]

It is a Chrombook,a laptop for poor people. what did you expect?

[@laurensparanormalreviewsan860]

I ordered this on ee. Flipping hp stream i had for a few weeks has completely crashed

[@Grimino]

what is that display, id expect top notch display for samsung especially for that price point.

[@williamkblake5413]

Nice video uncle spurt!

[@DavidRodriguez-yg9uu]

Does it have hotspot to share internet to other devices?

And even less power. Oh and a worse screen. And a higher price tag. Great value I think.

[@Taylor7668US]

I usually use a MacBook pro but I don't like carrying around on trains and in the car as it was two and a half thousand pounds but the Samsung Chromebook is perfect for checking email and movies I love the LTE function one downside is the speakers are very weak

[@stewartlanaghan7603]

Just claimed it today from Vodafone. Hope it's not too bad.

Any good?

this thing would prob not be good for uni. You prob want a Windows laptop cause for all the Microsoft utilities like Word. Althought Chromebooks can still use microsoft stuff

Hey Do you think if I conect micro USB to hdmi adapter can I plug that laptop them straight to the TV and stram movies there ? Would be very easy for me

Does it have a touchid unlock and samsung book s ?

[@usbsol]

Is there a cheaper, better alternative that is rugged, spill-proof etc? Thanks 😊

[@antx24]

nope

[@biasedthoughts]

I have one of these and it's pure trash. That being said I got it used for 150 USD on eBay. I popped a fi data sim in it. Now it's the off grid value of the decade. I was forced to use it last night when my internet went out(again).

[@Casp3r.aka.Droid.]

If it's not touch screen absolutely not because that's just ruins the whole experience if I would get a Chromebook it would have to be touchscreen so I can at least use it as an Android tablet as well

[@caroz1985]

Great 👍 video my favourite part is shingeki no kyojin on the screen 😍😍😍

[@jaughnekow]

How's chrome os like? Can you please do a video on it?

[@coytus94]

Chrome OS is pretty basic. It's essentially just a chrome browser that runs the entirety of the computer. Most of the "apps" on the screen are just shortcuts that open in a chrome browser such as Google drive, sheets, docs, etc. It's a simple OS, but if all your looking for is simplicity such as basic office work and web browsing/media consumption then ChromeOS is an excellent option over Windows, however don't expect to be able to do as much on it as a PC loaded with Windows

[@Ps-we3pp]

they are giving one of these away free with a s23 ultra on amazon on certain colours. gosh its still a pass from me i think

[@marcelheidrych]

think why they're giving it away ;) this device is not suitable for anything more than for the work of corporations that work on the chrome (google) file system for companies. Home use is (electronic junk) KZbin, Gemail and everything from Google. I received 2 devices of this type, I immediately installed Windows 10 and 11, a different operating comfort is currently being tested under Linux.

[@petergibson2318]

Good luck trying to install Windows 11 on this machine. You will need that luck.

[@colinkhalid1]

no touch screen !! forget it

[@andyH_England]

Poor choice. Now that you can connect your phone data to the Chromebook, a SIM seems a pointless and expensive alternative. So, even this does not redeem this disappointing device. Samsung suck so much at laptops and even marketing with the Galaxy name cannot save this, though some of their hardcore fans may get excited, as they do!

[@mArvAlcao71]

Tbf it's more efficient to have a dedicated sim slot for a notebook (whether it's a built-in slot or usb adapter or something like that), not having to deal with a sim card dealing for two devices simultaneously Plus, Samsung isn't the only one, Lenovo also has that

[@darling_yext]

Just like with S21 FE. Wow a worse S21 for more money? What a great value, can I have 4 of it?
