 There may be some applications where the AMD CPU will catch up with the Intel one, but I can't find it. The performance hit when running on battery is an even bigger issue.

Look for any of the newest models that use the 11th gen Intel chips if you want the best performance.

I was seriously disappointed in the performance of the CM5 and the Ryzen 5 processor. I even opened 4 windows with the Octane 2 benchmark running - the Intel was still faster.

<div class="md"><p>Been looking into buying a Chromebook for school and for when I&#39;m away from the computer. I&#39;ve been looking at the Asus CX5 and the Lenovo Thinkpad C13. I&#39;m not sure which processor is better suited for some intensive tasks like running Blender.</p>
</div>

Trying to decide on my first Chromebook.

It is 79,000 yen (around $850 U.S) and it will serve my purpose of having a reliable chromebook for a least 5 year or more. Plus the I could also play games on it as well as web browsing etc. 

Before I buy, Any advice ??

 on other Google products. Yes, this portion of the review is likely not going to be limited to the Flip CM5, and that's why the review is docked to only 3 stars and not 2. In addition, I'm still able to use browser-based Google Drive, but it still shouldn't be any kind of issue. But shouldn't the baseline be that Google apps run seamlessly on Google OSes (Android and Chrome)? Forgive me for expecting Google products to interact well with each other

 As such, when my old word processor laptop finally breathed its last symbolic breath, I opted for the switch. Unfortunately, however, my first impressions ~2 weeks in are not particularly high. Before making the purchase, I appropriately did my research. During that time, I was continually thrown back at how low basic performance specs, only to be assuaged by (sponsored, bought and likely fake) tech reviews of how Chrome OS doesn't need all the fancy schmancy high RAM and CPU processing power because

. it's Chrome OS! I knew better, but when budget constraints were accounted for, there were not any truly viable options of reliable brand + desired features + desired performance specs in my price range. Something had to give and it ended up being the performance specs. Out-of-the box, the device consistently hangs when loading basic, basic things

 Something had to give and it ended up being the performance specs. Out-of-the box, the device consistently hangs when loading basic, basic things. I'm not attempting to run anything remotely intensive and there is still that consistent pause that isn't there in similarly-priced (non-bloatware-filled) Windows devices -- let alone anything running Linux (MacOS excluded because of price-point). This is entirely because of the industry standard to short consumers on specs

Unnecessarily low performance specs and horrible selection of Play Store apps for Chromebooks

 It performs really well. Battery life is great. Display is very good. Everything you'd expect from a fairly high spec machine

Great looking machine but...

Asus Chromebook Flip CM5 review: A stealthy, sturdy AMD laptop with a big display

 A $500 configuration of the CM5 is available, but it drops to a slightly slower Ryzen 3 processor, 4GB of memory and 64GB of slower eMMC flash memory for storage. That configuration would still be fine for general use, but spending the extra $100 if you can gets you a much better Chromebook. The CM5 is big but still fairly slim.

11ax (Wi-Fi 6) wireless, you get a lag-free streaming experience. It's Asus' first Chromebook with an AMD processor and graphics with performance that falls between models we've tested with 10th-gen Intel Core i3 and Core i5 processors. The configuration I tested will first be available from Costco sometime in August for $600. That price converts to about £434 and AU$813

Consumer Reports

This Toshiba is a relative steal for $350, even though there are less expensive Chromebooks on the market.
It has 4GB of RAM (as much, we must note, as the $1,000 Surface Laptop coming this summer), and its performance was deemed excellent by our testers. It can simultaneously run several browser windows or streaming movies without a struggle.
This model doesn’t have a touch screen, so while you can use the Google Play Store to download apps, you’ll have to rely on the trackpad.

consumerreports.org

  -UPDATE (May 28, 2016): After ~5 months of heavy use (~8 hours daily) and I am pleased with the performance! I can now just barely hear the fan in a very quiet room where as before I was totally unaware it was even running. It is still very quiet though and nothing like my old lenovo. I have noticed some strange keyboard backlight issues though. I have seen it turn off and on while typing

 I have noticed some strange keyboard backlight issues though. I have seen it turn off and on while typing. Will update again if anything changes.

 -There are trackpad “dead zones.” On both sides, there are half-inch vertical strips where the trackpad does not work. Took me a few weeks to notice, definitely a bummer. -Opening this Chromebook is difficult

  Toshiba CB2 Cons: -The trackpad physical click isn't great. If you tap hard, it sounds unpleasantly like a click but you have to press much harder to get it to physically click which makes dragging difficult because the friction is so high. You can get around this by enabling tap to click and double tap to drag, but the physical click was hard to get used to. This is my first laptop with this click feature, so take this opinion with a grain of salt

Great laptop for the money!!! Some minor flaws.

 The Core i3 CPU helps the system boot up and load quickly. It's not a processing powerhouse, but for an affordable Chrome OS laptop that will mostly browse the Web, stream video, and run a few applications, it's plenty fast. I was able to multitask without lag or delay during testing.

Performance  The Chromebook 2 features a 2.1GHz Intel Core i3-5015U processor, 4GB of memory, and integrated Intel HD graphics. In comparison, the Asus Chromebook Flip has a 1.8GHz Rockchip RK3288C ARM CPU (a lower-price and less-powerful processor), and 4GB of memory

Toshiba Chromebook 2 (CB35-C3350) Review

 9/10. Processing Power : Having an updated intel processor the chromebook is seriously fast. It is more a test of the wifi in your house as the processor paired with the light and undemanding OS leaves the fan off for most of the time - and for the times it is on you can barely hear the hum it creates. It can handle online games such as agar

 The tracpad was also good, I don't understand the general dislike against it's texture - after about a minute of use I no-longer felt the fine grain on it. The removal of the function and delete key did not have a major impact on the 'functionality' of the device, and the chrome specific keys in place of them were helpful. 9/10. Processing Power : Having an updated intel processor the chromebook is seriously fast

 Battery : Possibly the most dissapointing part of the chromebook, I almost hope that I did not properly charge the battery as the on time I saw out of the laptop ( with medium brightness and backlighting ) was no where near the 11 hours promised. This was also paired with the extremely inacurate battery time predictions - 100% with 3 hours left was far from the norm, and the time actualy *increased* as the batterly went down - leaving me doughtfull of the software behind the predictions - toshiba, up your game. 3/10. Screen : Again a stunning desplay from toshiba

io with ease as well as streaming live video or music simultaniously - I've seen people juggling multiple video streams at once - but again this is very subjective to your internet speeds. 8/10.

TOSHIBA CHROMEBOOK IN-DEPTH REVIEW

  First two day's have each given me approximately six to seven hours of battery life, with about 20% or so remaining (according to the meter). Movies obviously take their toll.  Now onto CHROME: Super fast boot up.

 For comparison, our other laptop has only b/g/n. SpeedTest.net has our standard one at 52MBS, while the Toshiba clocks in a 155MBS! I've had a dozen tabs open, plus a movie on and this thing doesn't break a sweat. A big thumbs up!  Have had a couple of drops on day one, but it re-connected immediately

 The Toshiba identified both our 2.4 and 5ghz network connections and the 5 is smoking fast. For comparison, our other laptop has only b/g/n. SpeedTest

not up to standard IMO. Amazon, please take note! That said, all is working fine, so call this a pass on the initial durability test.  Like the three little bears, I wanted something just the right size.

Toshiba CB35-C3300.  First take AND Google Chrome-TAKE NOTE!

 Keyboard is reasonably comfortable. However, will take some getting used to because layout is slightly different than traditional keyboard layout found on laptop PCs. No ALL CAPS key, instead a "search" key in its place.  I would cautiously recommend this device to other people looking for a good Chromebook

BUYER BEWARE. Price fluctuates. Quality inconsistent.

 Where this device excels is in the screen quality, keyboard, trackpad, battery life and ease of use!  The display is top notch. Colors are bright and vivid and text is crystal clear. I do not use it outdoors, so I cannot comment on that, but all other usage has been great. The keyboard rivals and in some ways I'd say beats my Macbook Pro and the trackpad is very responsive and an absolute pleasure to use compared to most offerings on the many windows laptops I've used over the years

. though more on that later.  The device is light and very portable. The construction feels very good, with maybe a slight knock on the plastic used for the casing

  The device is light and very portable. The construction feels very good, with maybe a slight knock on the plastic used for the casing. However I have had NO problems with it and it has withstood being carried around and used daily for the last 2 months. It's even stood up to a 4yr old who has bumped into it without even the slightest scratch

Amazing device for those familiar with Google Chrome and other Google applications/services!

 The keyboard is decent--okay key travel, nothing expensive or premium. The sound into my headphones is pretty good. I'm no DJ or audio expert, but it's evidently tuned by skull-candy, which is pretty much a fledgling name brand suited for budget purchases in audio ("better than nothing" applies here). The track pad is the 1st thing I noticed which kind of turned me off

 It turns on with medium CPU power usage like 1080p youtube videos, and when it does it makes this nice and alarming MOTOR sound. The MOTOR sound sounds just like there is actually some hair stuck in it, which makes the fan work harder. With this fan discrepancy I'm afraid that something on the computer will give-out before its average life expectancy.  One more tidbit: Even though the screen is only 1080p, this thing motors through 1440p video like nothing, with multiple youtube tabs opened playing the same resolution; I tested it :)  I am returning it reluctantly and with one caveat: If the fan didn't make that noise and the track pad was as it should be, I would NEVER consider returning this pretty sweet machine

The Intel Core i3 coupled with the top-notch screen is perfect for my casual use of a laptop. It makes casual surfing nice and exciting IMO

 I'm no DJ or audio expert, but it's evidently tuned by skull-candy, which is pretty much a fledgling name brand suited for budget purchases in audio ("better than nothing" applies here). The track pad is the 1st thing I noticed which kind of turned me off. Here is why: The lower side which is square to the bottom of the laptop body actually stick up OVER the body. If you run your finger nail up from the bottom of the laptop towards the track pad, the track pad actually STOPS your finger from moving ONTO the track pad

Returning Reluctantly:Updated!!!!!!

 You cannot be dissapointed with a screen like this, especially for $300!  Con's (ALL MINOR) -You seriously cannot expect much more for a $300 system. But the trackpad is a little poor. Personally I think it works great, but is a tiny bit "cheap". The keyboard is great, and the trackpad I have never had a problem, but the actual clicking and quality could be improved
