Two-in-one laptops are an adaptable tech essential for anyone who’s waffling between a laptop and a tablet—they’ve changed how people tackle workflows and consume entertainment, and are a more portable option for commuters or anyone who wants the perks of a touchscreen with their laptop. The 14-inch Asus Chromebook Flip CX1 is a sturdy, entry-level 2-in-1 for those on a budget, and according to price trackers, it’s at its lowest price ever—$279, down from $369.99.
This convertible laptop runs ChromeOS (which does security auto-updates) and features a touchscreen hinge that flips all the way back and an Intel Celeron N4500 processor with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB eMMC storage. It’s designed for casual, everyday use, like work, video streaming, and multitasking, rather than heavy multitasking or more demanding tasks like video editing, serious gaming, or 3D rendering. The CX1 has a 13-inch full HD touchscreen with sharp vision and lasts up to 11 hours on a single charge, based on usage.
What do you think so far?
Users get USB-C fast charging, fingerprint login, and a backlit keyboard. The laptop also features a 1080p webcam for calls and dual speakers, as it integrates well with Google services like Google Assistant voice control. It’s a no-frills, lightweight option (just over 3.5 lbs) that easily flips, and while it doesn’t have the fancy high-end specs and heavy performance capabilities of some Chromebooks, it’s a decent option that performs well and covers basics, which is more than generous for an under-$300 price tag.
