It's nice to be able to draw on the screen in tablet mode and then switch back and type using the physical QWERTY keyboard. The Chromebook R11's software and hardware configuration are designed to work together, so it's difficult to gauge overall performance purely by the numbers since we are comparing different operating systems and hardware.Īdobe does off a light version of Illustrator and Google Draw is also included in the basic list of applications. That being said, there is one web-based benchmark I use, and I have run that to help reference the hardware.

The Chrome OS doesn't support Windows software, and most of the applications will come from the Google Play Store so I won't be able to run my normal benchmark suite on the Chromebook R11. System Performance and Experience System Performance

Most everything you need can be found in the advanced settings menu, including the ability to wipe the machine or reset settings to default. Managing keyboard shortcuts and mouse settings is also possible.

Since the Chromebook R11 has an HDMI port, you can also output video to an external monitor. You do have the ability to change the screen resolution, although I wouldn't recommend it. Clicking the settings option in the quick settings menu will take you to a menu similar in style to that of the settings menu in the Google Chrome browser.
