Verdict
A Chromebook can be a great option if you only need your laptop for basic tasks. The Asus Chromebook CX14 is a perfect example; it's completely silent thanks to its passive cooling system. Asus has also included a good keyboard and a long-lasting battery in its sturdy case. Based on the feel alone, you might assume you're looking at a much more expensive device.
However, this luxury of silence comes at the cost of some serious compromises elsewhere. Even for the lightweight ChromeOS, the performance of the Intel Celeron processor in the CX14 is at its lowest acceptable limit, making multitasking a test of patience. The biggest weakness, however, is the display: The pale, dark screen with poor viewing angles doesn't do justice to the otherwise solid build. In the end, this is a device for a very specific niche: if you're looking for an inexpensive and robust tool primarily for typing in quiet environments like a library or lecture hall and don't care much about image quality or speed, you might find a suitable companion here. For everyone else, the compromise between slow performance and a poor display might be too great.
Pros
Cons
Price and availability
In Europe, the Asus Chromebook CX1405CKA is a brand new device that was only officially launched at the end of May 2025. At the time of writing, the Chromebook is listed in our test configuration for €300 at Otto, among others.
A slightly more powerful version of the CX14 with Intel Core N150 is available on Amazon (DE) for €280 (about $326). There is also a Chromebook Plus version of the CX14 for €380 (about $442). In addition to a more powerful Intel Core 3 N355, the latter also features a better IPS display.
*Note from translator: As of May 2025, the Asus Chromebook CX14 series (including the CX1405CKA) was officially announced to be available in the United States, with a starting price of $279. It was also made available online at retailers like Best Buy and Costco. Users can also check common resellers such as Amazon and Best Buy for availability.
Specifications
Case & equipment
Normally, "plastic casing" doesn't suggest good quality. However, this Chromebook feels surprisingly solid and doesn't creak even when you grip it firmly. Asus gave the plastic a texture that coarse fabric, which is unique and provides a good grip. Our test device came in a simple light gray, but there are also a blue and a dark gray versions that have a carbon-fiber look. To summarize, it doesn't look or feel cheap at all.
The ports are basic. Asus made an interesting design choice by placing all of them on the left side. This could be convenient or annoying, depending on the desk setup. There is one USB-C port, which handles all the essential functions: transferring data at 5 Gbit/s, charging the battery, and connecting to an external display. The 720p webcam is sufficient for occasional video chats.
Sustainability
The packaging for this device includes cardboard and paper, but also some plastic film. Chromebooks are a special case when it comes to longevity. Updates are available for this device until at least June 2031, but there are no plans to upgrade the hardware. Surprisingly, however, the CX1405CKA is quite easy to open.
Input devices
The keyboard is surprisingly comfortable to type on. Although the pressure point is rather soft, the key travel is quite generous at well over one millimeter. This prevents the feeling of typing on a hard surface and makes longer typing sessions comfortable. At 10.5 × 7.5 cm, the touchpad is a sufficiently size for a 14-inch device. More importantly, its surface is slick, and it responds to finger movements without any noticeable delay.
Display
The Chromebook features a 1920 x 1080 pixel, 60 Hz resolution, which is the standard for Chromebooks. However, the display's underlying technology is the real deciding factor, and this is where the low price becomes apparent: Asus uses a TN panel. This design has one major drawback: poor viewing angle stability. If you don't look directly at the screen from the front, the colors quickly distort and the picture becomes pale.
This is also evident in the color reproduction. With a color gamut of less than 60% of the sRGB color space, the image visibly lacks vibrancy. It's sufficient for everyday use, but it's not a pleasure for the eyes. The brightness of 250 cd/m² is adequate for indoor use. The matte surface helps against annoying reflections, but the screen is simply too dim for working outdoors. On the positive side, the response times are acceptable, and there is no PWM flickering for brightness control, which is easy on the eyes.

Viewpoint analysis
Performance
To be clear: This Chromebook is not a racehorse. It's equipped with a dual-core Intel Celeron N4500, paired with 4 GB of RAM. This combination is sufficient for the most basics tasks, such as browsing with a few tabs open, writing emails and watching YouTube videos. However, when you try to multitask, the system quickly starts to stutter, which is unusual for a Chromebook. In a direct comparison with other inexpensive Chromebooks, which often use ARM processors such as the Mediatek Kompanio,the Intel chip clearly falls behind in terms of performance.
A 128 GB eMMC is used as memory. However, the read and write speeds are reasonably fast for everyday use.
Don't even bother trying to game on this device unless you're using cloud gaming services with a fast internet connection or playing simple games with basic 3D graphics.

Emissions and energy
Temperature and noise emissions
Thanks its completely passive cooling system, the Chromebook is silent. Due to the low TDP of the N4500, the surfaces hardly heat up noticeably even under constant load.
(+) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 38.1 °C / 101 F, compared to the average of 34.3 °C / 94 F, ranging from 21.2 to 62.5 °C for the class Office.
(+) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 37.9 °C / 100 F, compared to the average of 36.8 °C / 98 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 25.2 °C / 77 F, compared to the device average of 29.5 °C / 85 F.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 22.5 °C / 72.5 F and are therefore cool to the touch.

Power consumption
Asus includes a 45-watt power supply unit with the Chromebook. Our measurements show that even when we push the system to its performance limit with benchmarks, the device's total energy consumption barely climbs above the 15 watts mark. In normal everyday use, the consumption is even significantly lower.
