You all must have heard about Chromebooks and must be wondering what exactly it is. So in the next 15 minutes, you will understand that from tip to toe.
Based on a real-time survey conducted, researchers came to know dell Chromebook 11 that people spend 90% of the time in a web browser to access the internet. Most of the things like surfing the internet, checking email, streaming videos and purchasing gizmos, etc. all are done mostly via a browser. If the internet access is closed, probably most of you will not even open your laptop or desktop as in the present time, most important to us is internet connectivity, which we mostly take advantage of from a web browser.

So as we know, our laptops are operated by windows, Linux, Mac OS; therefore, we have to wait for the system to load and boot all its functions to start our work from Browser.
What if I tell you a laptop that has nothing but a browser! Yes, just a browser so you don’t have to wait too long for your system to boot and load. These laptops go by the name Chromebook or Chrome O.S. Many companies are launching there Chromebook, but Dell is overtaking other companies in this segment. If I say precisely, it would be Dell Chromebook 11.
I would personally prefer Dell Chromebook 11 as it is available at a little cost. Since these, all Chromebooks lack operating systems like Windows, Linux, etc. therefore, the software is low and light that delivers an insane battery life. This Chromebook is missing moving parts in it. So they don’t vibrate, and you are comfortable with them at any angle without any worry of damaging any part. It also offers quick service, takes minimal time to load and open.
It is not just a web browser. You must have seen the chrome web store, which offers a variety of applications like Google docs, sheets they all can be used in Chromebooks.
Chromebooks don’t slow down as much overtime, so if you think about when you use a Mac or Windows computer whenever you are installing any application or uninstalling the application files are getting left behind, that will eventually slow down your system. Still, with the Chromebook, you are doing everything to Chrome web browser, so those files that are left behind really don’t exist. If you do install an app, it is merely an extension of the chrome web browsers, so if you clear your browsing history and cache in there, there is nothing to slow down your Chromebook, and it will continue to work super-fast as compared to Windows or Mac.
A big concern I have heard from a lot of people.
Who was thinking about moving to a Chromebook is that they’re going to have to leave their music collection behind, so if you have not already progressed, was steaming service likes Spotify or Pandora. You still have a massive selection of music that is a way bigger than the hard drives of the Chromebook you are looking at.
It would help if you looked into Google Play Music because it offers a free way to store up to 20000 of your songs in the cloud and then you can play them back anywhere.so you can have access, like I said a 20000 of your song on your Chromebook without taking off any storage on it.
Chromebook offers a lot of functionality beyond just web browsing.
Most of them include a built-in S.D. card reader, so if you are into photography and you want to manage those photos, the Chromebook provides a great way to view and even store them on their internal hard drive, which requires a large hard drive or desktop to store all of them.
Many Chromebooks have hard drive as much as 300 gigabytes of storage, which is enough to store more photos than most people will ever take and additionally, they have USB ports and HDMI ports so you can hook it up to a T.V. and there’s a lot more you can do than just using a web browser on the Chromebook.
One of the most convenient things about Dell Chromebook 11 is that as soon as you sign in with your Gmail account, it will automatically sync all of your Chrome themes, settings bookmarks, and all of that .so you never have to worry about going and finding all of your bookmarks it’s automatically all there as long as you have already done it in another Chrome web browser.
For those people who are not too tech-savvy and don’t know how to avoid websites that may contain viruses.
The Dell Chromebook 11 is great because it provides built-in virus protection that automatically updates and will automatically protect you from viruses from any website and during the time, I’ve not got 1 virus, and I have never heard of anybody getting any viruses, so if you traditionally get lots of viruses or spyware on your Windows computer or Mac then Dell Chromebook 11 will be much less stressful, and you don’t have to worry about that.
It is the best and an ideal alternative for those who have a bit tight budget and who do not have to work on Photoshop, C++, or do any programming, coding, etc. They use the laptop for normal browsing and bit of light work on excel, emails, or to watch movies.
