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?

Yes it's absolutely amazing and I love how it doesn't need any cooling no fan or anything it just stays cool all day long. And the OLED screen is beautiful

I would say yes 1000% for CPU alone . The Lenovo plus 14 uses a ARM cpu that never even gets warm no need for any cooling and the OLED screen is way better then the Acer. you should check this out
