How to Choose a Chromebook

Chromebooks come in a range of sizes, specs, and price points. The right one depends on your environment, management needs, and budget.

Education vs Business

Education Chromebooks are built to survive classroom use with rubberized edges, spill-resistant keyboards, and MIL-STD durability testing. They are designed for Google Admin Console management across large fleets. Business Chromebooks focus on productivity with larger displays, faster processors, and premium build quality for office and remote work environments.

Processor and Performance

For basic web browsing, Google Docs, and classroom apps, an Intel Celeron or MediaTek processor is sufficient. For multitasking with many tabs, video conferencing, and running Android apps, step up to an Intel Core i3 or i5. The processor matters less on Chromebooks than on Windows laptops because ChromeOS is lightweight and efficient.

Screen Size and Form Factor

Chromebooks are available in 11-inch to 15-inch configurations. 11-inch models are compact and lightweight for younger students and travel. 14-inch models offer a better balance of screen space and portability for older students and professionals. 2-in-1 convertible Chromebooks fold flat or into tent mode for presentations, drawing with a stylus, and shared viewing.

Storage and Memory

ChromeOS stores most data in the cloud, so local storage needs are minimal. 32 GB or 64 GB of eMMC storage is standard and sufficient for most users. For RAM, 4 GB handles light workloads while 8 GB is recommended for smoother multitasking and Android app performance.

Fleet Management with Google Admin Console

For organizations deploying multiple Chromebooks, Google Admin Console provides centralized management of device policies, app distribution, user settings, and security controls. Chrome Enterprise licenses add advanced features like forced re-enrollment, remote device wipe, and detailed usage reporting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Chromebook and a regular laptop?

Chromebooks run ChromeOS instead of Windows or macOS. ChromeOS is a lightweight operating system designed for web-based applications and Google Workspace. Chromebooks boot faster, update automatically, include built-in virus protection, and are managed centrally through Google Admin Console. They are ideal for education, cloud-first businesses, and users who primarily work in a web browser.

Can Chromebooks run Microsoft Office?

Chromebooks can run Microsoft Office through the web-based Office 365 apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) in the browser, and many models also support the Android versions of Office apps from the Google Play Store. However, the desktop versions of Office that run on Windows are not compatible with ChromeOS.

How do you manage Chromebooks for a school or business?

Chromebooks are managed through Google Admin Console, which allows IT administrators to control device policies, push app installations, configure Wi-Fi and VPN settings, enforce security rules, and remotely wipe devices. Chrome Enterprise licenses add advanced features like forced re-enrollment and detailed usage reporting.
