Price/spec verdict

£299: what you get for the money

Strong Chromebook value at £299 if ChromeOS fits your work: Ryzen 5, 8GB RAM and 256GB storage from EE beats the usual cheap 4GB/64GB Chromebook compromises.

Why it works

Reasons it is worth a look

  • £299 is strong for a Chromebook Plus with Ryzen 5 7520C, 8GB RAM and 256GB storage from a mainstream UK retailer.
  • The Chromebook Plus baseline avoids the weakest cheap-Chromebook feel: enough RAM, more storage than 64GB/128GB models and a modern quad-core chip.
  • At 1.45kg with Wi‑Fi 6E, HDMI, USB-A and two USB-C ports, it is practical for school, study and light work without needing lots of dongles.

Check first

Before buying

  • ChromeOS is the main buying decision: do not choose this if you need Windows-only desktop apps.
  • EE’s page is inconsistent on the display resolution, listing WUXGA 1920x1200 in highlights but Full HD 1920x1080 in the specification table.
  • The 250-nit screen is a budget panel, so it is better for indoor use than bright outdoor work.

Best for

  • students comfortable with ChromeOS
  • Google Workspace
  • web apps
  • family browsing
  • light productivity
