    Samsung Chromebook Plus Convertible Touch Laptop (XE513C24-K01US)

    • It has a solid keyboard and vibrant screen
    • I concur with all the praise: Superb screen, fast and smooth as long as you understand the limitations of the processor, great keyboard, beautiful finish
    • Other reviewers have claimed the keyboard to be a bit cramped which I can attest to.
    • The tablet mode works very well, the pen mode is excellent and the keyboard is responsive
    • The keyboard is decent, the screen is great
    • Keyboard is mushy but tolerable.
    • the trackpad is fine, geeze, no problem with it 2) the keyboard is fine and I figure even if you're used to full size, which this really is close to, you will adjust if you have to write a 20 page report
    • Also, keyboard is not good
    • There are much better keyboards for handwriting on Android, including he Samsung Keyboard used on other Samsung devices.
    • Browsing is great, the keyboard feels nice, the apps work as intended although some apps were designed for phones so you wont be able to full screen
    • The keyboard also did not give me any problems
    • I have thought about getting a detachable keyboard for the iPad in the past but decided it was kind of crazy to add a peripheral to a tablet, which was as large as the device itself
    • The keyboard feels lovely, but it is a little small
    • The keys will go clicky clackety when folded up but the machine is smart enough to ignore the keyboard when in tablet model so its inconsequential.
    • The Samsung Chromebook Plus has many negative features.1.The keyboard is in small letters and this makes it hard to read.2
    • I love the small keyboard.
    • Its fairly fast, very light, has a great screen and keyboard, and I really like the stylus
    • Touchscreen is the only saving grace for the crappy trackpad and keyboard, but when that goes, this device is a piece of junk.2
    • The battery is somewhat lacking and can drain rather quick, mic and camera are decent but nothing to write home about, and the keyboard isn't the best for large hands
    • Soft keyboard keeps opening
    • but my previous Toshiba & Samsung chromebooks had more reasonable keyboards
    • Nice keyboard
    • KEYBOARDThe flip side of the light weight and thin dimensions is a squishy, cheap-feeling keyboard light years behind the clickety, tactile feel of the my MacBook (or even iPad Pro Smart KB case)
    • The keyboard is much better than you'd expect, as is the track pad
    • First off, the keyboard is extremely enjoyable to use
    • Slow, bad keyboard, not particularly light or convenient
    • The touch screen is responsive, the trackpad is decent, and the keyboard is decent
    • Brilliant screen, great trackpad, good keyboard , great S Pen and everything works very smooth
    • The keyboard works well, although it is somewhat mushy and the delete key is too small so I often press = by mistake
    • Great screen, speedy performance (handled any porn video I threw at it) and has a perfectly fine keyboard and track pad (dispite all the reviews that say otherwise)
    • The keyboard feels pretty good
    • I like the low weight, thin profile, very bright screen, 4:3 screen size and responsive keyboard and track pad
    • The display on this thing is second to none, and the keyboard, while small, feels just like my macbook
    • Nice keyboard
    • The keyboard is a little cramped
    • The build seems pretty good and the keyboard is good for me.
    • Keyboard is cramped in, and it takes allot to get use too
    • Keyboard is mushy
    • Very light and hip; the keyboard I am less enthusiastic about - it feels flimsy, but I am used to a IBM/Lenovo keyboard from the T450 series
    • Keyboard and touchpad: keyboard works well, reasonably springy and tactile
    • I like to watch my laptop to fall asleep which means the screen is too dim to illuminate the keyboard
    • It is a super fast device and the keyboard is actually not bad
    • If keyboard apps ever start working, it will be a 5 star from me
    • The keyboard is very cramped and I find the muscles in the back of my hand tiring easily
    • The keyboard works perfectly fine for me
    • Hardware and keyboard: great
    • The keyboard works perfectly fine for me
    • The keyboard is not perfect though: the keys are a bit
    • I also prefer the lettering in CAP as most regular keyboards rather than lower case like this keyboard, though it's just a very minor complain
    • I must admit it is a little odd using it as a tablet, perhaps because it is so large (this seemed awesome on paper before I got it), and feeling the keyboard underneath seems wrong.
    • The keyboard is good (though not excellent--but keyboard feel is subjective), the screen is first-rate, and the touchpad is just fine (though not close to my gold standard in CB touchpads: the Dell 13").However, potential buyers should note that the CB Plus (v. 59 stable channel) appears to have really hard time with less than optimal WiFi reception
    • The keyboard - the single reason why I have passed on multiple alternative laptop purchases in the past year is surprisingly good
    • The keyboard can be frustrating occasionally until you get used to it
    • The soft keyboard (when in "tablet" orientation) works..., OK..., but there are quite a few cases where is doesn't integrate correctly/well with various screens/apps, i.e., it obscures the text region with focus...
    • I've always been a fan of the noise keys make when being pressed anyway, but this has to be one of my favorite sounding chicklet keyboards
    • : the keyboard feels cheap, but its better than nothing!I cannot redeem the google perks that come with the device because my IP is outside US.the bottom side of the chasing easily got scratchespro: very long battery life about 7hours.can download android apps.the monitor is crystal clear and it is touch screen
    • Apart from media consumption, I use this device for small-scale development tasks on remote servers via ssh so a good keyboard is important
    • The device looks great and has a beautiful screen, s-pen, a good keyboard and an OK touch pad
    • I agree that the keyboard could be better
    • Not having a back-lit keyboard was a miss.
    • Downside is the keyboard - no back lighting, wish they had included that
    • The keyboard is really good too for the thinness of the laptop
    • The keyboard is good (though not excellent--but keyboard feel is subjective), the screen is first-rate, and the touchpad is just fine (though not close to my gold standard in CB touchpads: the Dell 13").However, potential buyers should note that the CB Plus (v. 59 stable channel) appears to have really hard time with less than optimal WiFi reception
    • All day battery life, comfortable keyboard, and lightweight
    • Pros: Light, good screen, tolerable keyboard, all day battery life on low brightness settings (8-10hrs
    • A backlit keyboard would make this chromebook perfect
    • Purchased five of these for a project here and had to send two of them back to Samsung for failing keyboards after less than a week.
    • I have seen on a Chromebook-2 in 1 functionality that works fairly wellCons-Terrible keyboard (seriously, I cannot stress enough on how bad it is)-ARM processor is weak and limits this device-$400 price tag is not justifiableAll in all, this device was very underwhelming to me
    • Sonos does not work as of this writing, as it could not find my Sonos system.
    • Build: metal and not plastic, so there's not much creaking as in cheap netbooks
    • I concur with all the praise: Superb screen, fast and smooth as long as you understand the limitations of the processor, great keyboard, beautiful finish
    • It worked as I would expect having owned phones from their Note series
    • I hate Apple products probably equally as much as I hated my Chromebook which I returned after discovering it’s useless for my purposes
