Asus Chromebit - Score: 25

OS: Chrome OS | MSRP: $85.00 | Product Class: Player (Stick)
Test resolution: HD | Browser: Chrome 60


Pros: The Asus Chromebit is a small micro-desktop that brings cloud-based tools and services to any display at a very low price.

Cons:It's limited to the same online tools as other Chrome OS devices. Minimal onboard storage. A single USB port makes expansion difficult.

Summary: Not a strong contender
