Which should you buy, ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX34 or Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Go?

The ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX34 is the one to take for lowest-cost ChromeOS browsing, though it is the wrong buy for storage or RAM upgraders and heavy multitasking. The Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Go suits light web browsing on a budget, though it is not built for any local storage-heavy use.

At 1.4 kg with a 50Wh battery and WiFi 6, it is a straightforward ChromeOS laptop for browsing, streaming and schoolwork.
