Is 16GB of storage enough?

Only if you work almost entirely in the cloud. Chrome OS and apps take up part of that space, and downloads, photos and offline files fill the rest quickly. Plan on cloud storage or an external drive.

Can it run Microsoft Office and other desktop apps?

No. It runs Chrome OS, so you use web versions of Office and Google Workspace, plus Android and web apps from the Chrome Web Store and Play Store. Full desktop installers do not run.

Is 4GB of RAM enough for schoolwork?

For a few tabs, email and documents, yes. With many tabs open or several apps at once it slows down. Students who keep a dozen tabs open should look at a model with 8GB.

How does it compare with other budget Chromebooks?

It matches the basics: Celeron chip, 4GB RAM, 14-inch screen. Its 16GB of storage is smaller than many rivals that offer 32GB or 64GB, so check that before choosing it over them.

Does it have a webcam and WiFi?

Yes. It has WiFi and a built-in webcam for video calls, which covers the basics for remote classes and meetings.

Who should not buy it?

Anyone who edits video, plays demanding games, stores large local files or runs Windows software. Those users need more RAM, more storage and a stronger processor.
