Specs:
Processor: Intel Celeron N3350
Memory: 8 GB of RAM
Storage: 32 GB eMMC
Screen: 15.6 Inches
OS: Chrome OS
Benefits:

  • The full sized 15.6 inch display is great for those who want plenty of viewing space for the work they intend to do. Also, this display comes with touchscreen technology
  • While this laptop offers a bit more than the basic Chromebook models on the market the price tag is still reasonable even for those who are on a budget
  • We are used to seeing most Chromebook models come out with limited system memory of 2 or 4 GB but this model has a full 8 GB
  • With up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge most users will be able to get a full day of use in before needing to re-charge

Downsides:

  • Storage space is quite limited with only 32 GB available so you will most likely need to count on online storage or an external drive to cover your needs
  • At 1.69 KG it isn’t overly heavy but isn’t extremely mobile friendly as well and a bit bulky to take on extended road trips
  • Since it only has an integrated graphics card it won’t be able to handle the high end video demands of modern games

Verdict:
The Asus Chromebook C523NA-A20105 is a very good option when comparing to other Chromebook models on the market. It has all the features you would expect plus more memory and larger screen than many of the alternatives.
