This list of 10 things is something that I've built based on actual comments in a lot of my chromebook videos. Some of the things were true, at one point, but on modern chromebooks they're just not true anymore.
Index to each topic:
00:00 - Intro
00:31 - Can't use Chromebooks Offline

What other kinda of false rumors have you heard about Chromebooks?
None
That they are the worst devices on earth
that they are bad paper waits! there rlly great ones!
"Chromebooks have a lifespan of 3 years and create electronic waste." Great video! Lots of good info!
They have huge display surrounds [which up until recently was mostly true!]
Trouble is the annoying exceptions to what you say. eg I use my Lenovo IdeaPad to read eBooks when I am travelling and can not get the Internet. I have downloaded my eBooks onto the IdeaPad (not easy) and you would think that Google Play Books (a lightweight App) could run offline. But it won't.
So I have to make the document open with ReadEra which I do not like as much because it is clumsy/difficult to get to open a document, plus it is buggy.
A great summary. Thank you. Subscribed!
You’re welcome.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Glad to see you're back. Can you talk more about Windows computers too? I know you really love Chromebooks but I'm a Windows computer guy there's some certain things that I'd like for you to address besides the being able to rip CDs there's also some other things.
Hey thanks!
What are some of the other things you’d like to see, I’m always up for content suggestions.
@@Eevnos I'd like for you to do a video I know you done one before about comparing Windows 11 to Chromebook about being able to rip music into their respective media players like Windows Media Player and the VLC media player but also like for you to talk about how windows can rip a CD and Chromebook cannot and if Chromebook ever gets that feature for the VLC media player using an external CD drive and it being compatible with it because they don't put CD drives installed anymore. Also talk about how big major corporations like FedEx use the Windows operating system and not Chrome OS in their operations. Those are just some things I'm interested in hearing about as far as Chromebook versus Windows and how I am a Windows guy and I always have been. I'll probably think of more as I go along and let you know about that later. Another thing is about how TH-cam is only an available app on Chromebooks but not on Windows computers so you may not be able to watch TV on your smart TVs with that but you may be able to from the website which is available on the Windows computers and how Google Chrome is available as a web browser on Windows computers as well as the one that comes the already built in Microsoft Edge. There is one more thing for right now I'll probably think of more later on is your opinion on Microsoft doing away with Internet Explorer that's been around for the longest in fact I believe Windows has actually been around the longest longer than Chrome OS or Mozilla Firefox or anything like that talk about all of that. That's all I can think of for right now but I'll probably think of more later on down the line
9:39 Chrome OS is based on the Linux kernel, but it is not considered a traditional Linux distribution. Chrome OS uses a customized version of the Linux kernel and runs a unique user interface on top of it. While Chrome OS shares some similarities with Linux, it has several distinct differences in terms of architecture, software support, and user experience. Therefore, it is not accurate to refer to Chrome OS as a Linux distribution, but rather as a separate operating system that uses the Linux kernel as its foundation.
This is the epitome of "achshuallyyyy" 🤣🤣
Agree with your content - need to know what to tell my kids that use a Chromebook at school all day and constantly ask me, "Dad, when can I get a real computer?" ... yikes
Your kids know a lot more about what they are being forced to use than you. Although I'm betting what they miss most is Gaming.
I love my Chromebooks, I have two. Chromebooks are very underrated and can do most things , in fact in the U.K. where I live a local council uses them exclusively to carry out all their business. They purchased 5,000 Chromebooks for their staff.
Chromebooks cant run google docs without loading for 30 seconds and lags with just 5 tabs open. Their OS is extremely limiting, only allows android apps or Linux stuff
@@odzergaming So, you own one? Or is that just what you've been told.
Because it's completely false.
@@johnblackledge4009 i own one
@@johnblackledge4009 I've got a Chromebook because I like testing OSes for myself.
You simply saying "it's completely false" does not make it so. I did not pay much for my Chromebook but that pretty is the limit of it's good features.
Very good video! I bought a Chromebook, and was looking for more tips. Thanks, I'll be happy when it arrives! 😊
Just got my first today to replace a broken windows laptop while that's being repaired. The screen refresh rate is naff (I can literally see the lines), but everything else is rather impressive for £150.
What would be really useful is information on where to find apps outside of GooglePlay, if there are any with lifetime licences instead of subscription plans or ad-saturated apps.
Great info. Answered a lot of questions
Thanks great video, looking to get one for myself 😊
Would like a step by step of enabling Linux and loading Libre Office and addressing memory split for happy performance on 32 and 64 bit OS.
And come to think 5 months later many of the shortcoming mentioned on chromeOS are now overcome, you ca do AAA gaming, photo and video editing, and, the list is growing what you can do in a Chromebook, I have a Google Pixelbook Slate, my wife has a Google Pixelbook Go and my daughter use a Google Pixelbook, all update to v110, each one using it for our personal, professional and school needs, don't miss at all any Windows machine.

Thanks for your great videos. We want to put Linux on HP Chromebook 11 G5 machines with only 16 GB storage and 4 GB RAM. Which Linux can we use and do we do it on top of Chrome OS or remove Chrome OS? Thank you.
If it supports it gallium os
I'm subscribed and waiting for your official steam on Chromebook video
Please test and see if my favorite game dota 2 runs well, also try and see if AMD FSR works on it, dota 2 can use fsr in video settings when using vulkan
Thank you
Thanks for subscribing and thanks for the details about what you want to see.
I’ll check these out!
I've had my Chromebook for about 2 years, it's an absolute revelation, I will never go back to Windows, it's brilliant!
I recently got a Chromebook for myself my aunt gave it to me and I've been dying to play spiderwick chronicles on it because I usually used to play it on Nintendo DS but I don't have that anymore and I am so freaking obsessed I never even got to zero that it's so wonderful and amazing that I've never forgotten it until now and I want to play it on my Chromebook but I don't know how to it
stop this google propaganda, 2024 chromebooks cant run google docs without loading for 30 seconds and lags with 5 tags open
"You cant use chrombooks offline" people are directing that question at the setup not the general use.
A lot of people are still convinced that they can’t even be used at all offline. It’s amazing how this is still perpetuated since it hasn’t been true in a long time.
Great video. I want to see that Acer Spin 714 review. Also, I was always told Mac OS is built on Linux as well. True?
Mac os is based on bsd, bsd is based on unix, linux is based on unix, they are both unix like operating systems
I have the new Acer Spin 714 Spin, and love it. Like any computer, all depends on needs, and apps you use to maximize the machines ability. Mine has 1tb, I5 with 8gb ram, and simply love it. We run our Home Business off these with dual monitors setups. Yes you can game, we use GeForce Now Ultimate tier.
@@creditrazer981 You have last years 714 or all new one with the Intel i5 Ultra chip and the new speaker layout? The new one looks amazing. Also dud they fix the Bluetooth, WiFi and the speaker crackle sounds? Many of the Acer Chromebook 700 series has had these problems.
Great video and the 11 thing- you can't get ransomware!!!
Good to know Chromebooks are improving. Recently hear that ChromeOS can be run on a macbook. Any chance you can do a video on a dual boot Macbook Air with Monteray and ChromeOS? That would be sweet. Thanks.
Unfortunately i don’t have a MacBook Air to test on.
I am working on a video about installing ChromeOS Flex on an Apple device though
I’m not sure why anyone would want to do that though. I mean, a five or six year old version of macOS is FAR more capable than chrome OS. Even a striped down Linux distro would be better.
I'm naturally just a curious guy when it comes to operating systems and tech, since i first discovered chromebook i wanted to experience the OS my self but the hate and bad reviews was what made me reluctan
Well now im definitely getting one
Is it possible to install Android Auto? I am looking to use a detachable Chromebook as a Car screen with google maps.
Im getting Acer 314 spin 2/1 8gb ram 128gb storage 6000 intel celeron processor. Ordered the other day. Cant wait to get it. It has chrome os.
Thank you for this video. As someone who is trapped with Windows at work and uses MacOS and LInux at home I have always viewed ChromeOS as a kludgy built system of pieces cobbled together. That view makes me leary of even trying it. Is it possible to download an image to install in a virtual machine on a real computer?
If you haven't found out yet- Chrome OS Flex is available (for over 2 years now). And you can run it off of a USB drive booting via BIOS. I actually over wrote Windows 11 with OS Flex. I'm not sorry.
@@paulalsup8838 I think I am going to give ChromeOS a test drive.
I love that Xbox 360 controller T-shirt 🤙🏼
Can chromebooks run iTunes? Bc i still do my music from there
Haha.. thanks.
There is a way to get it installed but it's not straight forward and not "official".
You have to turn on the Linux support and then install WINE, and then install the Windows version of iTunes.
GeForce Now, Ultimate Tier (For Gaming). Chromebooks are amazing, once you learn the abilities, and what Apps, software give you the needs you want.
Great Video Sir Eev! (Dont know your real name yet, Sorry)
Thanks so much!
There is gaming Chromebook’s! And I had a user on a community server say the same thing chromebooks are slow when they are not anymore
5 is true,i can not run stuff well,my chromebook crashed on stream before)
I got a Chromebook a month ago, but I love you, not going back to windows, I like my dell cromebook
Excellent video 👍
I was considering a Chromebook for my office use like excel, presentation and internet and to experience the chrome OS also but lots of confusion and myths were there,
But you cleared it all thanks.
so what did you decide im kinda in same suitation. i want to swich my old laptop's win11 to chrome os but as im still confused that will lost ability to work on documents and ppts.
your answer will really helpful.pardon my english and thank you
greetings from Boise!
#5 is still true in SOME cases if your Chromebook is like 2 yr old it will start to be slow... I got mine 3 yrs ago and it is painfully slow i get longer battery out my 2009 mac book pro and resting don't help talked to the maker of the laptop they just said its a downside of chromeOS and what it is compatible with got a new Chromebook last week because i thought it was fixed and it was the same after like a day or two so i am not sure if i managed to get defective Chromebooks or thats just how they work Just take getting a Chromebook with a grain of salt
1:56 ChromeOS flex
I have a similar video on 10 thing you can do on a Chromebook you didn't know you can do. 👍
Chrome Os Flex looks interesting , have you had any experience turning a Mac into a Chromebook ?
It’s funny you ask because I’m doing a video on exactly that.
The two things that do the best on my channel are Apple hardware and Chromebooks, so I thought I’d combine the two with a video. 😉
Chromebooks are amazing
wow.... chromebook fanboys do exist.....
Of course they do. If wasnt interested, why would you be here, and . . .Commenting?
Chrome books can run Windows 10 apps with Linux
Chromebooks are still very limited and every one I've seen even recent ones are still garbage build quality. For their intended use (as basically a cheap hub to access google services) they are good.
I understand that perspective from someone who hasn't used them much, but as you dig into them you'll find they're much more capable than many people give them credit for.
As far as the build quality, the cheapest ones use cheaper materials (to save on money) but like any other computer the build quality improves as the price goes up.
The Acer Spin 714 is extremely well built and is moderately priced.
if you buy a cheap device, don't expect out of this world built quality, the same holds true for Windows Laptops.
if you cash out more, you'll obviously find ones with phenomenal built quality.
but for a similar price point, you'll get a better built quality and better performance that you would with a similarly priced Windows Laptop.
@@dawoodwilliams3652 so I guess the question then would become: why would you shell out that kind of money for basically an Internet browser? It’s not like you are going to run any professional grade software on these machines. I understand the appeal, especially for the student who only needs them to access Google services. They are a very disposable commodity. That said, they should not be directly compared to a windows based PC or Mac.
