One thing you will notice as you look at the specifications is that this unit is about more weight than most Chromebooks. Weighing in at 4.38 lbs, this is nearly double that of most other units. This is because instead of a plastic chassis, Samsung used an aluminium chassis in the Chromebook 2, making it far more durable than most. If you are going to be using your Chromebook heavily, especially while traveling, the Samsung unit is going to be able to take a few more bumps in and out of your travel bag than most Chromebooks.
As with all Chromebooks, when you pick up the Chromebook 2, you will get 100GB of additional Google Drive storage for free for 2 years. If you are already a Google Drive user, you will be able to
