If I had to replace my old Chromebook, I'd probably go with this:

Decent CPU, 16gb RAM, 256gb SSD, quality screen with a thin bezel.

I like the extra memory because I sometimes run multiple Linux containers at the same time.

If you only want a dumb terminal for web and SSH you could easily get by with half that without sacrificing performance.

no touchscreen, not fanless, not much storage, not high dpi, and bad battery I've heard... it's also just a rather large laptop as well. :(

i did look at this when i was trying to decide on an alternative before i just bought another barley used pixelbook with only 50 battery cycles.

it's half the price so if it works for you, great! but it's no pixelbook replacement imo
