Extremely fast, Plenty of ports, Chrome OS is starting to mature
Derivative design, Limited ecosystem, Expensive compared to the competition
All in all, the Samsung Chromebox Series is a great computer for what it is. Google should be commended for developing an OS that can cater to most users' everyday needs quickly and gracefully – provided they're willing to truly invest in Google's ecosy...

Abstract: Would you believe that there's a Celeron-powered nettop that sells for $329, including all of the software you need? Samsung's Chromebox gives the small form factor market something to think about with its slim profile and pre-installed Google Chrome OS...

Speedy startup. Few Malware worries. Portable Chrome profile. Internal power supply.
Apps are Web-based, requiring constant Internet connection. DisplayPort, but no HDMI. Keyboard and mouse are optional
The Samsung Series 3 Chromebox is a nice alternative to a cheap nettop that you're buying just to get on the Web, especially for that relative of yours that "needs to get on the Facebook." If it came with HDMI in the box, it would be a home run hitter. A...
Quick boot time, Plethora of ports, Multi-monitor support
Expensive considering underlying hardware, Hit-or-miss support for apps and USB devices
Samsung's $329 Chromebox might look like a Mac Mini, but its Google Chrome OS, while improved over previous versions, still has major limitations. It's okay as a second or third computer, but budget PCs offer better hardware and a full-blown OS. Read Mor...
Smorgasbord of ports and connectivityExtremely hackable little boxChrome OS has improved since launch
Cheap materials and build qualityExpensive given what it can do right now
With the latest software update, Chrome OS is easier to use. Die-hard cloud aficionados might want to look at the new Chromebook, but the Chromebox is an extremely hackable little box....
The Samsung Chromebox offers an attractive, low-risk entry point to the experimental world of Google's Chrome OS.
Absent features and occasional software and hardware incompatibilities mar a supposedly simple user experience.
The attractive, fairly priced Samsung Chromebox desktop turns Google's Web-based Chrome OS into a not entirely unreasonable option for certain low-cost PC shoppers.
Easy to set up, Snappy web browsing, Chrome OS improvements, Small and attractive
No HDMI, Poor builtin speakers, Still underpowered, Limited file compatibility
There's no denying that the Samsung Chromebox XE300M22 is an innovative product. But just because something is innovative, it doesn't mean that it's necessary. Our houses are filling up with internet connected devices already, so the Samsung Chromebox Ser...

Decent budget introduction to Google's world of Chrome, compact, fast bootup,
Lowpowered, not much storage, OS still finding its feet
With the Chromebox you get a similar set of specs to the Chromebook laptop, but without the keyboard, mouse, display, battery or 3G. It's basic, yes, but capable, and is likely to improve quickly as Chrome develops. If you already have the accessories,...

No HDMI, Poor built, in speakers, Still underpowered, Limited file compatibility
Compared to the first generation of Chrome OS-powered devices, the Samsung Chromebox XE300M22 is a solid, yet unspectacular, desktop PC. There's an awful lot of potential here, especially as our broadband speeds increase and more services take to the clo...
