"Here’s an overview of some of the more
telling comments:
"CNET: The Series 5 works as promised and looks good doing it.
However, for its price you can buy a more capable Windows Netbook
or laptop â€" even if you just want something for couch
use. You can do a lot of things with one of those (or a smartphone,
an Android tablet, or iPad for that matter). Right now, though,
there are just a lot of things you can’t do
with a Chromebook.
"Gizmodo: It’s not a netbook, Google will
tell you. (Vocally.) But your hands will tell you differently.
It’s squishy in the middle, when you press on
the upper section of the trackpad. Almost like
it’s hollow. The rest of the plastic body bends
like stale bread. It’s at that weird
intersection between meh plastic and good plastic. And
it’s thin, notably but not remarkably so."
