Ask HN: Good developer Chromebook?

3 pointsjason_slack3 comments

Recommendations on a Chromebook? I'd prefer to spend the money on a model with good RAM and includes cellular. There seem to be so many makes and models it is hard to make sense of.

Probably not the best, but I've stuck with the HP 14 with Wifi+SIMM card port for many years. T-Mobile 200 MB free 4 GB of RAM should allow you to do what you need to do. Unfortunately, they are now a rare find... as they discontinued them, so Ebay is the only place you can really find them now. Don't want to say I burn them out.. but my usage of doing things on them is pretty high. Lots of PHP programming.

Second the HP though I don't code. I ended up picking up a new HP Spectre x360 for all my laptop needs but keep the 14 around for use in a pinch. Incredibly useful little chromebook and I only paid 300 for it. Was worth twice that easily.

Do you have more info on which model?
