Score: 68/100
Lenovo 300e Chromebook
Score: 41/100Rankings
The ASUS VivoBook L203MA is an ultra-slim 11.6" netbook with solid build quality and a comfortable keyboard, but its limited RAM, small eMMC storage and lack of a backlit keyboard keep it in the basic-use segment.
The Lenovo 300e Chromebook is a rugged, education-focused 2-in-1 with long battery life and a versatile hinge, but its ARM processor and tiny storage make it best suited for light, cloud-centric tasks.
