Samsung Chromebook Plus V2 After 10 Months: Is It Still Worth It?
Source: Chrome Unboxed Archive.org version
I wrote an article about three weeks ago talking about the Samsung Plus V2, a price drop, and how this Chromebook had finally become one worth your attention. We didn’t really want to re-hash that article, but we did want to give these thoughts some proper video attention over on YouTube because, at the end of the day, this Chromebook is finally an extremely compelling purchase thanks to some unique features and it finally having a price point that matches.

Samsung Chromebook Plus V2 Review

Right now, you can only order it through Samsung or Best Buy, so perhaps when sales expand a bit, the price will drop accordingly. The biggest problem for Samsung is the sheer volume of good/great Chromebooks on the horizon. I think with stiffer competition in this price segment over the next few months, they’ll have to drop the price to sell it against the coming competition.

Samsung's Chromebook Plus V2 might be pricier than your average Chromebook, but the design and improved performance over the last-gen model let you do more with Chrome OS and Android than lower-end options.

Samsung's Chromebook Plus V2 is a speedier premium pen-enabled 2-in-1 for $500

Chromebooks -- laptops running on Google's browser-based Chrome OS -- are generally designed for affordability, making the term "premium Chromebook" something of an oxymoron. In fact, market research firm NPD Group defines any Chromebook that's $400 or more as premium, which is a starting price considered "budget" for Windows laptops and, well, nonexistent for Macs.
