A good Chromebook can do almost anything a regular laptop can do, and the best ones feel better to use than their similarly priced Windows counterparts. After testing most of the Chromebooks released over the past seven years, we recommend the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 (13″) and the Lenovo Flex 5i Chromebook (13″). Both models are comparatively inexpensive, and they offer fast performance and an excellent keyboard and trackpad. They’re also compact and light, and their 1080p touchscreens are vivid and bright. While our other picks last a couple of hours longer, the battery in the Flex 5 and 5i should still survive a full day of work or classes.
