" ...  You just flipped over the screen like a reverse laptop and it's great for when you're in the bed and you just want to lay it on your lap while playing some games.  ...  "

" ...  The screen is by far the best part of this chromebook, it is absolutely stunning with great contrast, high brightness, and great clarity due to the high pixel count.  ...  "

" ...  This "2 in 1" with Google Play Store and touchscreen "tablet" functionality will give them both a tool for work and a toy for play. ... You can't even put child-safe games on it even though there are thousands of child safe apps on the Google Play Store.  ...  "

" ...  I freaking love that I can take handwritten notes AND i have a keyboard I can use, so I can sketch diagrams and leave notes on screenshots and all of that--things I used to have to have both my laptop and a tablet for. ... The only reason I'm giving this four stars is that the keyboard is meh-to-fine and touchpad is kind of slightly sub-meh. ... I adjusted to the keyboard pretty quickly.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The machine itself has a nice solid feel about it and even though the keyboard isn't lighted, I have had no problem with it.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The keyboard is really very nice to use. ... I have seen some people complaining about the keyboard size but I don't find it any different than my macbook pro to use aside from slightly narrower keys on the ends which took all of about 5 minutes to get used to. ... My favourite tech before this was my iPad pro with an attached keyboard and I loved having the touchscreen capability but hated not having a touchpad.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Quick and responsive, I have no problems with the keyboard and track pad.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The typing experience is not very good, but it is reasonable for a device that I'm not working on daily.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I found getting used to the Chrome OS doesn't take long and the shortcut keys and touchpad options actually make a lot of sense when you get used to them.  ...  "
comment
" ...  There is a smaller bezel, the trackpad responds to the lightest of taps (macbook 12" 2017 touchpad for example requires more force). ... Yes if I HAD to choose a keyboard I would choose the pixelbook keyboard, but the difference isnt worth considering at all.  ...  "

" ...  Here's what I was thinking, in case some of you are thinking the same: the kids use Chromebooks at school and Google docs for their assignments at home and at school. ... Kids also love apps and games on tablets for their leisure time, travel, etc. ... This means there's not much of a point for the "tablet" function for a kid under 13. ... You can't even put child-safe games on it even though there are thousands of child safe apps on the Google Play Store. ... The alternative is to lie about your child's age and set up their Google account as a 13 year old, but then the parents do not get as much ability to restrict or monitor their child's activity.  ...  "
