Why you should get a chromebook

There are so many reasons why you need a chromebook .

Aside the fact that it loads faster than any other type of laptop, most of them also support android apps so you won’t have to do all the gaming with your android smartphone only.

It is lighter and very portable and the OS is really light.

Disadvantages Of Chromebook

Even tho chromebook is really awesome, there are few things that could be a barrier.

The device is more like a laptop that is running on google chrome browser. With the exception of the ones that can run android apps, you can’t install your favorite apps. The only apps you can install are google chrome browser extensions and plugins.

People who prefer to work offline most of the time with their laptop the chromebook probably wont be the best option because with it, almost everything is strictly online. Unlike normal Microsoft OS or Mac OS where you can install apps that work offline, everything is just a google chrome browser extension apart from few apps that come pre-installed.

Conclusion

In all, It all depends on what you really want to a do with the laptop that determines if you actually need a chromebook or not. If you are someone like who can’t do without internet, then you probably need one.
