Buying Advice Best Chromebook to buy right now??

Hey everyone,
I’m looking to pick up a Chromebook but there’s so many out there that I’m not sure which one is actually worth it. I don’t need anything crazy, just something that runs smooth for school, work, and maybe some Netflix on the side.

Are there certain models that stand out as the best Chromebook to buy? I’ve seen everything from Lenovo to Acer to Dell, but it’s hard to figure out which one gives the best value.

Any advice or recs would be very helpful! If you’ve bought one recently, what’s been your experience?

Lenovo Flex 5i and Acer Spin 713 are great picks. Both have solid performance, good screens, and excellent value.

Has Lenovo fixed the hinge issue on the flex? My (windows) flex from 2022 just broke off at the hinge for no particular reason, seems to be a common problem.

I’m not familiar with it, but I’ll try to look into it.
