Is the Dell 3120 good for schoolwork?

Yes. The Celeron N100 and 8GB of RAM handle Google Docs, browsing and video calls. The 11.6-inch screen is small for heavy multitasking.

How much storage does it have?

It has 64GB of eMMC storage. Chrome OS takes part of that, so plan on cloud storage or a USB drive for large files.

How long will it get Chrome OS updates?

Chrome OS updates are supported until June 2033, which is a long runway for a budget laptop.

What ports does it have?

Two USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 ports, one USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 port and a 3.5mm audio jack. The USB-C ports can charge the laptop.

Is 8GB of RAM enough?

For Chrome OS, yes. 8GB is more than most budget Chromebooks offer and keeps many browser tabs open without slowdown.

Can it run Windows apps?

No. It runs Chrome OS, so you use web apps and Android apps from the Play Store, not Windows software.

Our take on the Dell 3120 Chromebook 11.6"

The Dell 3120 is an 11.6-inch Chrome OS laptop built around Intel's Celeron N100, a four-core chip with 8GB of DDR5 RAM and 64GB of eMMC storage. It is a small, light classroom and desk machine at about 3 lb, with two USB-C ports, one USB-A port and a headphone jack. Its rivals in the budget Chromebook class often ship with 4GB of RAM and older Celeron chips, so the 8GB here is the standout. Buyers rate it highly, and the main trade-offs are the small screen and the limited 64GB of storage.
