A lot of newer TVs from other competitors offer some similar features, but the AndroidTV capabilities make it great. The remote control also is well designed to work with the interface. A key spec that I really appreciate is that the speakers on this TV (and Sony TVs) are good on their own (no soundbar required). Although LG TVs have good screens, they have absolutely awful speakers. This TV has really good speakers...no soundbar required.

I bought this product after having bought the original Chromebooks a few years back, but had not used one in almost 2 years since i spent more time on tablets and phablets. However, I recently decided to buy something that I could use around the living room and house. I debated between buying a new tablet for a lot of more money (which would have also required me to buy a keyboard for basic typing) and buying a Chromebook. I chose the Asus C100PA because it: 1) provided all of the benefits (low cost & security) of a Chromebook, 2) had a touchscreen...very big advantage, 3) complete convertible/flip-around capability...meaning it could go flat like a tablet should i just want to hold it and read or do some minor touch-screen activities, and 4) the attached keyboard meant i could go right back to the physical "computer mode" in seconds, 5) you can't beat the low cost of this device vs. the much higher price of a tablet...not saying that a tablet isn't rhe right purchase for some, but wasn't necessary for me this time around, 6) Battery life is pretty good.
No real negatives maybe because my expectations were right. You will need to wipe the screen clean often because of fingerprints due to the touchscreen.
