The colouation does put the panel into focus, making this solid for work, and even with no keyboard backlighting, the glow of the screen is enough to pick out the white legend on the keys in the dark. ![]() Still, we'll keep an eye out for any offers in our dedicated laptop deals hubĬhromebook keyboards are simple, but we'd appreciate a bit less squashing on the right (Image credit: Future) Samsung is in competition with itself, then, but perhaps it's in a race to the bottom. The other problem is that this (at least in UK) is slightly more expensive than the pretty-dire but also LTE-equipped ARM-based Samsung Galaxy Book Go, with which it shares the majority of its design language. The convenience of an always-connected machine doesn't justify the extra cash, given that you'll need the expense of a SIM card with a data plan alongside it, and since many cellular providers are happy to allow limited mobile hotspot use, you're probably better off using the phone you already have in your pocket - and that might even pack 5G. The main issue with this price is that low-end Chromebooks are meant to be truly affordable - see the Asus C233, often discounted below half this price in regular Chromebook deals - and the Galaxy Chromebook Go just creeps over the line. If you're in the US, there's a $250 model available which omits the cellular connectivity - even that, as we'll get to, might be slightly too much to ask, but it's much closer to the point at which this should be sitting.Īustralian readers may be out of luck here: we've seen the non-LTE listed for AU$480 and the LTE version for AU$555, but these appeared to be US imports so tread with caution. This particular model, with LTE connectivity (locked to AT&T in the US, and open in the UK), attempts to convince you to spend $350 (£399, around AU$555) for a machine which sits right at the bottom of the modern spec barrel (at least outside of its connectivity and, perhaps, its larger-than-the-Chromebook-usual 14-inch display). Straight up: it's too expensive for what it is. We have a problem with the Galaxy Chromebook Go's price.
