This is my first Chromebook and I love it. The simplicity of this thing is amazing, I have an expensive Windows 10 PC that is driving me crazy, I find Windows has become a very intrusive and confusing computer that fills you with a lot Notifications and popups get in the way. Trying to figure out how to turn off all of these things is a real pain, Windows seems to bury all of these settings making them hard to find. This Chromebook is none of that, the simplicity is as with of using a smartphone. I have absolutely no problem with the screen resolution, it looks good to me. Can't comment on the battery life as I haven't had to unplug it yet, I use it strictly as a stay in one place (always plugged in). Google Docs and Files take a bit of getting used to if you've never used them before, but once you get used to them you won't have a problem. Q It wasn't a problem for me as I've already used it on my iPhone. You can't download any external programs as it's a closed system. For me, that's a good thing, since I only use it for web browsing, shopping, email, and files. And because you can't download programs, you won't pick up viruses. If you need to edit photos, you can anytime download any photo app from play store. I've found the storage and speed for this is ok, it doesn't seem to slow down when numerous tabs are open. They have a ton of apps to download from google play Store that should make you happy. I don't use it to stream movies or play games so can't comment on that, I'll stream stuff from YouTube with no problem. If you want a laptop like me just the basics then you can't go wrong with this one for the price. For me it's a lot better than one of those inexpensive Windows PCs. I had a low-end Windows PC that I bought as an add-on bought a cheap computer to use when my wife was working on the expensive PC. I hated him so much I gave him away before he was a month old. Aside from being obtrusive and confusing, it was slow as crap. This Chromebook is like a giant smartphone with a keyboard (IT'S SO SIMPLE). The only reason I took off a star is because I think it could have used another USB port, apart from that I love it and if you use a computer like me you will too .PS.Remember that this S330 model comes in different specifications. My test is based on the model with the higher resolution (1920 x 1080) screen and more memory (64GB). They have a cheaper model called S330 with less resolution and less memory.
