After the original Galaxy Chromebook scored poorly due to middling battery life, Samsung made some dramatic changes for the follow-up model.

The 2021 version features a 1080p QLED panel that is one of the best displays you’ll find on a Chrome OS device.

The screen is vibrant and bright and features excellent viewing angles.

The switch to a Full HD resolution, where the previous model had a 4K display, means the Galaxy Chromebook 2 also offers significantly better battery life.

With 8GB of RAM, the Core i3-10110U model on sale should offer more than enough computing power for most Chrome OS users.
