I feel that the EduGear chromebooks … are a poor quality product. I feel that the EduGear chromebooks that we purchased (over 1,000) are a terrible product. They are unreliable and have an extremely high failure rate.

THESE LAPTOPS ARE VERY SLOW AND THEY ARE JUNK I am currently an 8th grade student over at McDevitt Middle School in Waltham, Massachusetts. Very disappointed/ angry that the Waltham Public Schools switched to the edugear chromebooks, Shame on them. They were actually just trying to be cheap and give us junk laptops. These laptops are incredibly slow, the keyboard/ typing is very slow. the cameras are very dark and they take really bad photos. How am I going to submit an assignment or do a project that requires pictures/ videos. Some classes I need a different device to record video. Wouldn’t it be better to switch to an android tablet or keep the iPads because I can’t even use my phone. It can’t even take good photos of my assignments that I did. Plus, I can’t even take a good screenshot because the screen camera won’t let me, even though I’m using the right buttons to take a screenshot , Many students at McDevitt hate the chromebooks because of that reason. THEY ACT LIKE THEY ARE USED JUNK THAT CAME OFF OF EBAY!!! I’m not trying to be ungrateful. I just have a bad experience with chromebooks.

It worked really good for the first few… It worked really good for the first few weeks. Then it started smoking and caught on fire. I don't even know what happened it just glitched. Bad quality anyways. The flip mood didn't work very well it ended up coming off the hinges.

Quality of current EduGear chromebooks … Quality of current EduGear chromebooks is abysmal. Frequent returns, issues with battery life, keyboard quality. Even RMA's returns have to be returned at times.

We have an issue we are hoping doesn't … We have an issue we are hoping doesn't become wide spread with the right hinge. It seems to catch. So far 2 sent in were covered by warranty. We are hoping we don't see a rash of them. We like the cost and flip to tablet mode. They have held up well as a 1:1 device that students take home.
