Chromebook

Hi all. I’m looking for advice on what Chromebook’s would be best value for money for my sons birthday. My budget is £200. He wants to use it for gaming but I’m a bit concerned that he will be disappointed with the type of performance he will get within that price range. Thanks in advance.

    Chromebook? Gaming?
    These don't tend to go hand in hand together. Unless you're talking absolute basic Android app games that don't need any powerful hardware to run, or will be subscribing to a game streaming service and playing over the internet from a data centre somewhere (you also need good, low latency broadband for this) then this hardware isn't going to be the answer.

    Is there an alternative type of laptop that you could recommend?

    Is there a reason why it needs to be a Chromebook?

    That’s just what he’s asked for
