i mostly use it in bed without the keyboard, so as a tablet, so i wouldnt replace a traditional laptop with this, i hate these 2-in-1s for actual use on my lap.

Gotcha. That's basically how I use my galaxy chromebook but for whatever reason the colors look really bad at low brightness. I think it's because chrome is not really optimized for lower brightness and if that is the case, I'd have the same issues with this. When you are watching stuff late at night, do you use low brightness? If so, how do the colors look? For example, when something dark is happening on the screen and there are a lot of shadows, all of the detail is lost and it's just all black...

16:9 is pretty skinny for vertical use, but it should be nice for movie watching without letterbox and traditional laptop horizontal use. It's not going to perform like a 12.9" ipad Pro, but it's also about 1/4 the price (including keyboard).

One thing to note is no headphone jack. Lenovo recommended the Google Pixel brand USB-C to 3.5mm adapter for about $11. I guess everyone is following Apple down that path.

Picked one up as a Christmas gift for a teenager. Looks like a pretty nice media/homework device. Can pick up an optional USI pen for art if desired.

As I said, I have not used the one I bought yet, but the Galaxy is a high-end device with an AMOLED screen. I'd have a hard time believing this would really be an upgrade, unless you really wanted a tablet device.

The Galaxy Chromebook screen suffers from black crush when watching videos. It's not really calibrated correctly - although it does look good if you don't run into the black crush issue,.
