Chromebooks were made for students for the most part and i am right they were even comming with a matlab free version and allowance as long as you could give your student pass codes.But more than half of students payed for something they couldn't use at its best,any student that won't run any animation or photo and video lab program(like Photoshop and film lab)could do their job with a Lenovo yoga book that on a much cheaper it focuses on the most important needs of a student(unlike chromabook)such as taking notes,having multitasking capability for youtube and secondary tanks like word. Honestly.Chromabook was for the demanding students,students just went with the guaranteed option(i dont blame them).

Old video so nobody will see this but...Lenovo Thinkpad X230. You get an i5, normally 4-8gb ram, the best laptop keyboard about, and the durability of a freakin rock, even if it's a little chunky by todays standards, it's smaller than the used laptop in this video. Personally I have an x230t which has full touchscreen and an ips panel, the regular x230 can be had under the $200 budget easily.

Nice to see used as an alternative shown off, and especially nice to see the Elitebook. I got one with a second gen i7 and dedicated graphics for just over $100, and upgraded the cpu (yes, a laptop with a socketed cpu). Imo, as long as you don't care too much about having something thin and light, it's a much better option for price/performance.

@@drnsells3036 If you need a decent machine for longer periods of work e.g. database or CRM it's a good laptop. I also use it for rendering videos on Premier pro as well but only short ones like 4 - 10 minutes. Since there's no dedicated graphics chip you can only play games up to 2013 with medium settings or those that don't demand higher specs. The Core i5-3320M processor on this laptop works okay. It doesn't feel like you're having to wait for apps to open. Make sure you don't have any bloatware installed though. Also, I've doubled the RAM on mine to 8GB obviously since most of my work is on Google Chrome and everybody knows Chrome is a RAM eater. If you're tight on budget like I am and need something for light to medium work loads, then this is a dependable machine. The $140-210 price is good but don't pay anything more than that. Cheers!

@@drnsells3036 Hey! I have the AMD model and I want to say that the Intel+AMD combo is excellent. I have since moved on from this laptop but I do come back and check the video comments as I have owned this laptop in the past. I used a quad core processor, the SR20X, and the AMD GPU inside was amazing, I overclocked it hard until it finally died one day, but if you're more conservative and consider the cooling ability of the laptop by not putting very hot processors inside, you'll have a brick that's indestructible if you accidentally drop it, a perfect sized panel (not as big as a 15, but don't have to squint like a 13). I played loads of games on it and I can attest that while the GPU worked, it *worked*. Ignore the battery life as well. I received this laptop as a lab machine, and having the hotswap batteries for long road trips and batteries from other HP laptops is great. I have two 100Wh batteries from a ProBook 6570b and that thing would last decades when playing GameCube games.

Got the EliteBook 2570p. It's the 12.5" version of what he presented here. Paid around $230 for it with a Windows 10 license (I run linux mostly, but I need Windows for office stuff and I was getting 3 years warranty if I got a Windows license). Threw in a SSD and another 8 GB of RAM so it has 12 in total. Also replaced the optical drive with a drive caddy. It weighs only about 1.6 kg and the only real disadvantage is the battery life. Otherwise, it's really serviceable - this series actually has a socketed CPU, and the back cover just opens right away. All service information can be found on the HP website - along with videos showing how to do it, I was kinda surprised. Had it for 6 months now and to be honest, I kinda love it.

Just get a Thinkpad x220/x230. I got a used one for ~$120. Everything works and it has 94Wh battery. I even bought a docking station so i don't even have to plug my monitor/power when I get home. It gets the job done. Can write code on it

if you want to do video editing check that it has at least hd4000 series graphics, most of those programs require the extra features included with that graphics bump (from experience, I rock a Elitebook 2760p) Photoshop works fine in HD3000 series though.

hi Austin. thans for mention of best 2 in 1 convertible pc? I've had my acer R5 571TG for 1 year, it was open box at my local best buy. original price was at $700, I paid $460 total. It's my first convertible pc, and my 1st with backlit keyboard. so, that would be a good buying option if one has the $$$ to buy same day? the HD is WAY better than my t.v. what would be my next 2 in 1 to buy? the asus Q505UA oh yeah!!

Old laptop FOR SURE I got a free dell from my school, and poped an ssd in, and it works flawlessly. Sure, it only gets an hour of battery life, but when it comes down to that, or a really sad new laptop, I'll go with more ports, bigger screen, full and good felling keyboard, and a solid CPU any day of the week

Might I suggest for a Round 2 of this with a refurbish Macbook that is like 5-8 years old as one of the contenders? I got a mid-2010 A1342 (2.4GHz C2D) refurbished for like $350 AUD (shit's expensive here yo), that I upgraded to 8GB of DDR3 and all-in-all it's been a sweet little thing that worked well as a daily driver for me for a solid 2 weeks as my 'main' system as long as I didn't go hog-wild with Chrome tabs.

I got a ProBook 6570b for free from my school's ewaste dumpster. Slapped a SSD in it, doubled the RAM from 4 to 8 GB and its a decent laptop. Only issue is the TrackPoint will stick if you push it too far in the upper left direction. When it does stick, all I gotta do is put pressure on it to the lower right direction.
