You must
have heard about Chromebook? Now I am going to describe whether you should buy
it or not and its advantages and disadvantages. Let’s go ahead.
What is a
Chromebook?
I could answer
this question in a word. But, if I describe a little more, you will not only
understand it but also know its importance. I know that many among us switch on
their laptop or desktop and open a web browser and spend the rest of the time
using that web browser only. We do all of our works with Google chrome, Mozilla
Firefox or Internet Explorer/ Edge. Such as checking for new mail, Facebook,
Twitter, online news reading, reading articles on blogs etc.
It is seen that
there are many users who will not turn their laptop on if you say that the
internet connection will remain off for several hours. Because, today the need
for Internet is the greatest of all. And to use Internet we use web browsers.
But if you
can meet all your needs with one web browser, what is the necessity of Windows,
Mac and Linux in your computer? If your computer run on an operating system, it
needs to boot first. You wait for when it will be turned on, all processes will
be completed and you will open browser to access the Internet. In this
situation, if I tell you that there is computer or laptop that has only one
browser and there is no separate software. And this computer is Chromebook or
Chrome OS.
Chromebook, powered
by Google, is a software that can run in any laptop where other operating
systems such as Windows, Mac, Linux etc. are of no use. The laptop can run only
using Chrome OS. Just open the Chromebook, it will run within 5-6 seconds. Now
click on Chrome directly and start your work.
Why is
Chromebook becoming popular?
The main
reason of the popularity of Chromebook is its lower price. In these
Chromebooks, hardware is not advanced enough. Since there is no Windows, Linux
or Mac operating system and only one web browser is installed, there is no need
of so much hardware. So, nowadays Chromebooks are found with less hardware and a
lot of stylish look.
Another
advantage is, the battery life is much more. Because, there is no other separate
software installed here. And one web browser does not decay battery so much.
And the best thing about the Chromebook is, its performance. Chromebooks are
faster and loading time is much less. So, you can get smooth experience while
using it.
Should you
buy a Chromebook?
Is Chromebook good? If you have
a small budget and you want to buy a laptop for basic tasks and internet
browsing, Chromebook could be your best choice. If you think that your usage is
not much and you will not use any other special software such as- photo
editing, video editing or audio processing etc., you can purchase a Chromebook
without any hesitation.
You will be
able to do several tasks such as normal browsing, blogging, word, excel etc.
with Chromebook very easily. And since it is not managed by Windows, companies
require no license to prepare it. So, you get a Chromebook at such a cheaper
rate. Moreover, if you want, you will be able to install Windows later.
