Put simply, the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 is a lightweight laptop boasting stellar battery life, impressive performance, and a fanless design that borderline rivals that of the MacBook Air. Especially for commuters, this is a Chromebook you’ll want to keep on your short list.
Diving deeper into the details, this laptop wowed me with features I didn’t think I’d ever see grace a Chromebook. Its built-in webcam is so sharp, I had to do a double-take when I saw my selfie. With its fanless design, it produces zero noise — and somehow, it doesn’t get hot. Then, it comes equipped with an OLED display. Yes, you heard that right. An OLED display on a Chromebook. And the colors on it look just as vibrant and punchy as I could’ve hoped.
As outstanding as some of these Chromebook features are, this little laptop isn’t without flaws. I was disappointed by its lackluster speaker quality for music, its outdated 60Hz refresh rate, and frankly, its high price tag.
When this laptop is on sale, it could be one of the best Chromebooks we’ve reviewed so far. When it’s not, it might be worth checking out the best laptops we’ve tested under $500 to find a better value.
