    Such a well laid out, informative, credible & honest channel - I've learned loads already, starting from scratch.
    Also, above & beyond interactions on X freely giving your time & expertise.
    I think I got a very good deal with your help, choosing this exact model for my daughter in S1.
    Wishing you all the very best, I hope your channel gets the attention it deserves. Thanks

    I commented on your past video and you adviced me to go for a Chromebook with an IPS display mainly because of content consumption purpose. So I did, I went for the HP 14a-NA1004TU. It has an 14 inch matte IPS LCD touchscreen screen. It has an Intel N4500, I don't know how good or bad this processor is, I don't really care about processing power to be honest, But do share thoughts on HP 14a that I bought, whether it was a good idea or not.

    • @MergeDroid
      @MergeDroid  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi, thanks for the update - I'm glad my advice about the screen was able to help you. That HP 14a looks like an updated version of one I reviewed a while back with the Pentium Silver N5030 processor - th-cam.com/video/6m8lWYp08gY/w-d-xo.html
      Regarding the Celeron N4500 processor in your HP, it's from 2021 so getting a little old now, but does still mean you'll get updates to ChromeOS until June 2031, so some good life left in it. I actually just last week published my review on the Samsung Chromebook 2 360 with this same processor and gave my thoughts there - th-cam.com/video/oyTm5MkN_DY/w-d-xo.html

      @MergeDroid  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, do you have the spec with the stylus included? Assume you're happy ChromeOS delivers what's needed for her to do her school work? If yes to both and you're happy with the price and like all the other aspects of this Chromebook that I show then I think you and your daughter will be pleased. Do compare it to some of the other Chromebooks I show on the channel, including higher spec'd Chromebook Plus models, playlist here: th-cam.com/play/PLNSLoCmFMc8qm1a5XOh5p3JMh4S2qPm6U.html

      Hi, not sure if you got to watch -
      At 0:46 the ports shown, there is no HDMI port.
      At 05:31 I show using display out with my dock over USB C. If you're travelling you could try a smaller hub like this - th-cam.com/video/PMQnSA7eHXw/w-d-xo.html

    • @MergeDroid
      @MergeDroid  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, thanks for checking the video, I hope it was useful. In my mind the Tab M11 is quite different as it's an Android tablet, right? If you plan to use the device primarily as a tablet, I'd say go for the Tab M11, or if you plan to use mainly for productivity and want a full OS go for the ASUS. However, you might be better off comparing this ASUS to this - th-cam.com/video/EtoQpjcFYAg/w-d-xo.html

      @@SofiaKhan-l9i Hi, not disturbing me at all I'm very happy to help 😃 I just want to ensure you get a pen that will work with your Chromebook and based on the screen tech it uses the stylus/pen must say and be compatible with EMR. If useful to know, just from a Google: "EMR stands for Electro-magnetic Resonance. This technology is a near-field technology that offers pin-point accurate stylus inputs. EMR uses a combination of sensors, control algorithms and fast data transmissions to produce an on-screen handwriting experience that rivals pen and paper."
