Chromebooks priced under £200 usually lack the power and features for even the most basic uses, but Asus’s Chromebook CX1505CKA is surprisingly competent. At 20mm thick and weighing 1.59kg, it’s neither as thin nor as light as it first appears, and its build quality would never be mistaken for a premium laptop. There’s too much flex in the mostly plastic chassis and the hinge is too loose to hold the screen at certain angles.
It will easily manage multiple browser tabs and online apps
All the same, it doesn’t look like a bargain- basement Chromebook either. In fact, the blue, green, pink or silver finishes give it a stylish feel.
