The Asus Chromebook CX1 (CX1400) is one of the best Chrome OS laptops around. It packs an impressive 14-inch (1920 x 1080) display, a size and resolution you don’t often see on Chromebooks. Powering the machine is a 1.1-GHz Intel Celeron N3350 dual-core CPU paired with 4GB of RAM. For safekeeping your important files, it affords you 64GB of microSD-expandable storage. While these specs may seem meager, on Google’s lightweight and efficient Chrome OS, it’s plenty oomph for creating docs, browsing the web and streaming. For your connectivity needs, the Chromebook CX1 packs plenty of ports. You get two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C with display and power delivery support and a built-in 3.5mm headphone/mic combo jack. There’s also a built-in microSD card reader on board for storage expansion and file transfers. If you’re looking for an affordable big screen laptop for home, school and basic tasks, the Asus Chromebook CX1 is a solid choice.
