July 23, 2025
When we ask our readers to vote on something, it’s usually a pretty tight race, with so many opinions and preferences at play. Not so when we asked you tovote for your favorite Chromebookrelease of the first half of the year. This is one of the most decisive victories we’ve seen, even though we did have a split in preferences between the site audience and our YouTube community…
So what was your pick for thebest Chromebookof early 2019?
Reader’s Choice: What’s the best Chromebook of early 2019?
Out of over 5,000 total votes, theASUS Chromebook Flip C434came out on top by a wide margin, securing almost two-thirds of the overall vote. Interestingly, the website audience voted our overall second-place winner, the HP Chromebook 15, in first place with 39% of the site-based vote. But there were just too many votes cast for the Chromebook Flipover on YouTubeto keep HP at the top overall.
We fully understand liking the Chromebook Flip C434 this much. In ourreview, Eric called it a “worthy successor” that “surpasses the original in nearly every capacity.” Eric ultimately thought the Flip C434 was “an attractive, sturdy workhorse that should appeal to budget-minded Chrome OS fans.” High praise indeed.
