I’m a sysadmin and spend most of my time between browser-based tools and a command line. Crostini works great on this unit, so getting access to Linux apps (based on the Debian 9 armhf build) was easy, including X11-based apps. This unit does not support Android apps, but then comparatively few do, so no points lost there. The SoC is a touch on the slow side, but not too bad!
Edited to add: the unit now supports Android apps, thanks to ChromeOS updates released since my original review.

bueno que les puedo decir lo bueno: tenia mis dudas si era usada, pero no llego en su empaque nueva, sin nigun rayon, bien sellada, contiene cable cargador, el inicio y configuracion es relativamente rapido mas que con una windows, la relacion precio calidad es execelnte, se ve que es resistente el material, no se traba, ojo todo es online sobre el drive de google, pero bueno si ya guardabas todo en la nube no hay problema sincronizas tus archivos y los llevas a todos lados aun sin el equipo, el teclado no tiene la tecla para ñ, pero la tecla de : funciona como si lo fuera con naturalidad, tiene muchas funciones el display, lo siento muy limpio, justamente escribo la reseña desde la unidad, la recomiendo mucho. lo MALO pues hasta el momento nada. ACTUALIZACIÓN: se descompuso de la tecla de borrar, la G y la H, la G si la cuenta es de gmail. Y eso que le di un uso mÃnimo, máximo seis ocasiones desde que la compre, siempre guardada en su funda y todo ahora tendre que mandar a repararla, la queria exclusivamente para elaborar mi tesis ahora tengo otro pretexto para durar mas en hacerla.

Compre esta chromebook hace ya casi un año, estoy mas que satisfecho con el producto, tiene todo lo que buscaba, aclaro es mi primer chromebook, para mi trabajo uso exclusivamente el equipo que me proporciona mi trabajo, mi chromebook es exclusiva para mi tiempo libre, hablo de una ‘computadora’ que para iniciar o apagar no tarda mas de 5 seg, uso exclusivamente Chrome como explorador el cual se sincroniza con mis otros productos android, no guardo informacion en la chromebook mas que en drive, la bateria le puede durar hasta 10 hrs si usas el minimo de luz en la pantalla, no tiene ranuras de ventilador asi que no esperes que se caliente, si corre aplicaciones de celular e igual programas sobre linux, algo limitados por parte del procesador, pero si hablamos de libre office, gimp corre sin ningun problema. si buscas un equipo solo para usar el explorador, ver documentos, peliculas o hasta para escribir es lo mejor que puedes conseguir por el precio (cuando la compre se encontraba en menor precio).
UPDATE
es cierto hay forma que una actualizacion salga mal, provocando que no muestre imagen. pero parece mas culpa de uno como usuario por no reiniciarla seguido (tarda segundos el proceso).
se puede conectar un monitor hdmi para ver el escritorio, se soluciona usando el comando rollback en la terminal para revertir la ultima actualizacion.
ctrl+alt+t y escribir ‘rollback’ lo soluciona.
la sigo usando, es mala para discord video, pero no falla en zoom.

The FHD (1920x1080p) version of the Lenovo S330 definitely does NOT have an IPS display. The panel is reminiscent of what you’d see on a Windows XP era laptop. No matter what angle you choose, it looks washed out. Some colors are so undersaturated that it’s hard to see gradients.
Lenovo’s decision to put a non-IPS display on the S330 is baffling. It’s a real shame too, because otherwise, the S330 is a very nice Chromebook for the price. The keyboard feels great, the trackpad has an amazing texture, and overall the build quality is quite good. However, without an IPS display, it’s a new car with an engine from the 1970’s. It’ll work…but why?

This Chromebook is solidly in the lower middle of the pack, so don’t get it. Either go for the cheaper ASUS ruggadized models, or go more expensive for models with touchscreen and a real processor, but don’t get this one. Way too slow. You can’t watch any type of TV streaming on it, it’s so laggy it hurts.

… you receive a written promise from Lenovo quality control that they’ll pay YOU for the time you’ll need to spend doing their job for them. I’ve had this Lenovo Chromebook for just a few days, and already I’ve spent too much time restarting it. On the same day it arrived, it began to freeze and turn off. Repeatedly. I ran powerwash several times. Same issue.
The value proposition for this Chromebook is that you can simply open the box, and get started working, hassle-free. Value has not been delivered. If I wanted this much aggravation, I’d run one of my old Dell’s with Vista.
UPDATE: 4/23. Ran powerwash two more times. Spoke with Amazon. Spoke with Lenovo. Ran complete recovery of Chrome OS. Still freezes and crashes. Just ordered a second one for arrival 4/23, and am returning this one. Perhaps this one is just a lemon. If the second machine works as it should, I’ll update here. If it doesn’t, I’ll return it also and post a second review. Total time wasted so far: 12 hours and counting.

This is my first Chromebook and I love it. The simplicity of this thing is amazing, I have an expensive Windows 10 PC that drives me crazy, I find Windows has become a very intrusive and confusing computer, that bothers you with a load of notifications and pop ups. Trying to figure out how to disable all that stuff is a real pain, Windows seems to bury all those settings, making them hard to find. This Chromebook is none of that, the ease of this is like using a smartphone. I have absolutely no problem with the screen resolution , it looks fine to me. I can’t comment on the battery life because I’ve yet to unplug it, I use it strictly as a stay in one place computer (plugged in all the time). Google Docs and files take a little getting used to if you never used them, but once you get used to it you’ll have no problem. It was not a problem for me because I was already use them on my iPhone . You can’t download outside programs because its a closed system, to me , that’s a good thing because I only use it to surf the web, shop, emails and files. And because you can’t download programs your not gonna pick up any viruses. If you need to edit any photos you can always download a photo app from the Play store. I’ve found the storage and speed for this to be just fine, it doesn’t seem to slow down with numerous tabs open. You have a load of apps to download from the Google play store that should keep you happy. I don’t use it to stream movies or play games so I can’t comment on that, I’ll streams stuff from YouTube with no problems at all. If you want a laptop to do just the basics like I do, then you can’t go wrong with this for the price. To me it’s way better then one of those low cost Windows PC’s. I had a low end Windows PC that I bought as a extra computer for me to use when my wife is working on the expensive PC, I hated it so much I gave it away before it was a month old. Besides being intrusive and confusing, it was slow as crap. This Chromebook is like having a giant smartphone with a keyboard, (IT’S THAT EASY). The only reason I took away one star is because I think it could of used one more USB port, other then that I love it, and if you use a computer like I do, you will too.
PS. Keep in mind that this model S330 comes in different specs. My review is based on the model with the higher resolution screen (1920 x 1080) and more memory (64gb). They have a cheaper model called the S330 with less resolution and less memory.

I was nervous about ordering this Chromebook many months before arrival. It was a Christmas gift for my husband. However, it arrived as scheduled in great condition. We had been looking for an affordable Chromebook of good quality for watching videos, browsing the internet and using google documents. The battery life is awesome and the resolution is great. He’s been using it since December and is very happy with it. Would recommend!

So fast to start up, its amazing…turn it on and in a few seconds you are working. Simple to set up and simple to use. Probably not a lot of bells and whistles but for the price a great laptop!
UPDATE: Dec 24, 2020 5 months after the warranty was over the screen stopped working. It would light up but could not display the sign in page. Customer Service issue now…After two calls to the Lenovo Help line they would not help at all due to the warranty being over by 5 months, even after explaining that their products should last longer than 1 year and 5 months! They finally said a tech would call me, well it never happened. I called back and asked for supervisor to call they said she would call today, again never happened! I give up, no more Lenovo for me.
