#Pretty good solitaire chromebook windows 10#
It’s not quite as complete an experience as you’ll find with Windows 10 Ink, but it’s nevertheless a nice value-add. Next, there’s an included Wacom EMR stylus that allows for taking notes, creating sketches, and generally doing all of the inking that Chrome OS supports. General cursor control was just fine, with Chrome OS gesture support and good control over the platform’s most important environment, the Chrome browser. The touchpad is large relative to the available space on the small keyboard deck, and it provides a smooth and precise feel.
It’s typical for the class of machine, with the slightly more expensive Asus Chromebook Flip C302C offering a similar feel. The key mechanism offers plenty of travel with a soft bottoming action, but there’s less tactile feedback than we like resulting in a bit of a spongy feel. The Chromebook Spin 11 serves up the typical island keyboard with black keys and white lettering, and as mentioned earlier it’s spill-proof and so can withstand the occasional splash of water. There’s also a micro-SD card reader and 3.5mm combo audio jack to go with the 2X2 MU-MIMO 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2 radios. Two USB-C 3.1 ports supporting data, DisplayPort, and charging provide for some future-proofing, while two USB-A 3.0 ports provide for legacy support.
In terms of connectivity, there’s plenty to go around. The newest version has a silver cross-hairline pattern on the lid that gives it a slightly more premium texture and appearance, but otherwise, this is a simple silver-gray design that’s rather mundane. Regarding its aesthetics, the Chromebook Spin 11 isn’t going to win any awards, but neither is it an embarrassment.
Comparing the Spin 11’s performance to other Chromebooks left us decidedly unimpressed.
