0:02
should I buy a Chromebook right now or
0:04
should I wait well we can't answer that
0:06
question for everybody in every specific
0:08
scenario but what we can do is offer
0:09
some guidance and maybe help you make a
0:11
decision on whether or not you should
0:13
pull the trigger and buy that device
0:14
you're looking at online or wait just a
0:17
little bit and it comes down to the type
0:19
of person you are it comes down to the
0:21
type of device you're looking at so we
0:23
want to break all this stuff down and
0:24
help you make a better purchasing

1:03

1:14
like to learn more about how to
1:15
supercharge your hosting experience and
1:17
in all likelihood save some money go to
1:19
hosting er com forward slash chromevox
1:21
to get started and use the promo code
1:23
chrome unbox to receive up to 91 percent
1:26
off yearly web hosting plans let's break
1:29
this down into three scenarios the first
1:32
scenario would be you're the person that
1:34
needs a device by specific time so
1:36
whether it's school or a gift for a
1:39
particular holiday you need a device by
1:42
such and such date that's that's
1:44
scenario one scenario two would be
1:46
you're the type of person that just
1:47
really gets excited by the best deal
1:49
getting the most bang for your buck
1:51
that's that's the second type of person
1:52
and then the third type of person you
1:54
might be is someone who is more
1:56
interested in specs and the latest and
1:59
greatest thing that you can get out of
2:01
your Chromebook and so we're going to
2:03
put that into the third scenario if
2:05
you're a person that is looking say
2:07
you're watching this video and we're two
2:09
months out from Christmas or you have a
2:11
birthday coming up or you have a kid
2:13
going to school or whatever if there's a
2:15
date that you have attached to your
2:17
purchasing decision this becomes pretty
2:19
simple go look online do some research
2:22
figure out what is the best deal
2:23
currently going on the best Chromebook
2:25
that's going to fit your needs so if you
2:27
need a stylus for instance make sure it
2:29
has a stylus obviously or backlit keys
2:31
are important or you need a convertible
2:33
whatever the case is find the device
2:35
that meets the specs you need at the
2:37
best price possible do your research and
2:39
go buy your Chromebook there's no need
2:42
about all the things that are coming
2:44
down the line there's no need to sit and
2:46
worry about what deals might come or
2:48
might not come if you need it by a
2:50
certain date this one's pretty easy go
2:53
buy your Chromebook go to Chrome and
2:54
voxcom look at our deal section see what
2:56
you should expect to pay for a
2:58
particular device and then go make your
3:00
purchase for our second category people
3:02
that are looking for a deal the advice
3:04
is kinda similar as well
3:06
now Chromebooks do go through some sort
3:08
of pattern from time to time as far as
3:10
deals go but what we're seeing across
3:12
the board at this point their deals
3:14
happening and popping up all the time so
3:17
you don't need to wait for Black Friday
3:19
or you don't wait till President's Day
3:20
or whatever day that deals happen in
3:23
general we see deals on Chromebooks
3:26
happen frequently all the time across
3:28
the board what you do need to do is do
3:31
some research so imagine you're looking
3:33
for the Asus Chromebook flip C 434 when
3:37
it came out it was $600 it started to go
3:39
on sale for like $500 but right now
3:41
we're seeing sales on it for 450 dollars
3:43
if I didn't do any research I wouldn't
3:45
know any of those things I wouldn't know
3:47
what to look for I might go to Best Buy
3:48
I see it for 600 bucks and go well this
3:51
one does all the things I want and it
3:52
kind of looks the way I want something
3:54
well not doing your research cost you
3:56
some money and you didn't get the best
3:58
deal but you also need to be realistic
4:00
look at the going prices for Chromebooks
4:02
go again to Chrome and box comm click on
4:05
the deal section and see what
4:07
Chromebooks have been going for once you
4:09
do some research and figure out which
4:11
device does the things that you want it
4:12
to do you don't have to worry about all
4:14
the devices that are coming and all the
4:16
baseboards that are being worked on
4:17
because ultimately if you're all about
4:20
getting a deal the new latest greatest
4:23
Chromebook that's coming out down the
4:24
look down the road isn't something
4:26
that's going to be on sale or you know
4:29
be something that's going to be cheap
4:30
for you so ultimately look at what's
4:32
available now do some research and
4:34
figure out what device is best for you
4:35
and then figure out what kind of sales
4:38
we've seen on these devices in the past
4:40
few months don't go out and just pay
4:42
because it's on sale and get 50 bucks
4:44
off if in two weeks you might be able to
4:47
$200 off of it know your expectations
4:49
set your expectations and go find your
4:51
Chromebook our third group are the the
4:54
feature seekers the people that want the
4:56
greatest tech so as we make this video
4:59
right now for instance there are two
5:01
Chromebooks coming out in the next few
5:02
weeks in the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook
5:04
and the Asus Chromebook flipsie 436 that
5:07
are both kind of pushing the envelope of
5:09
what Chromebooks can do and so if you're
5:11
a feature seeking person and you're like
5:13
I'm ready to buy a Chromebook right now
5:15
I'm gonna tell you you probably need to
5:16
pump the brakes and just wait till these
5:18
devices come out because they bring new
5:20
stuff to the table like different usi
5:22
stylus support and better processors and
5:25
more internal storage and fingerprint
5:27
scanners and all this kind of stuff that
5:29
set them apart from what's available
5:30
right now if you're not worried about
5:32
getting the best deal and paying the
5:34
least amount of money for the most
5:35
Chromebook these are going to be the
5:37
type of devices you're after if you want
5:38
the latest greatest thing but you need
5:41
to wait and again this comes down to
5:42
doing your research knowing the product
5:44
cycles that we normally see they're not
5:46
as set in stone as phones are phones
5:48
kind of release you know the iPhone or
5:50
the pixel phones they release on these
5:51
very set schedules Chromebooks don't
5:54
exactly follow those tight of schedules
5:55
but again if you go to Chrome on box
5:57
comm go to the upcoming devices tab
5:59
you'll see what we're tracking and what
6:02
we know is coming and you can do a
6:04
little bit of research and know pretty
6:05
quickly when to expect the newest latest
6:08
greatest thing and then base your
6:10
purchasing decision on that info because
6:13
ultimately if you want the latest
6:15
greatest thing there's always going to
6:17
be something better down the road we're
6:18
tracking Chromebooks that are gonna have
6:20
features that the current generation of
6:22
upcoming Chromebooks don't even have yet
6:24
but is it really worth waiting a year or
6:26
a year and a half for those to come out
6:27
now no way if you're ready to buy a
6:29
Chromebook you need to buy one but once
6:31
you've done your research and figured
6:33
out hey in a couple months we're gonna
6:35
have all kinds of new Chromebooks with
6:36
all kinds of new gadgets and new
6:37
features you probably want to wait so
6:40
again do your research know what's
6:42
coming and make your purchase based on
6:45
that information so at the end of all
6:47
this you've got to decide what type of
6:48
person you are are you the person that
6:51
needs a Chromebook by X date cool go buy
6:54
a Chromebook are you the person that
6:55
really really gets excited about a deal
6:58
or saving money or bang for your buck
7:00
and all that kind of stuff well then go
7:02
search out a deal and go buy a
7:04
Chromebook based on what you find and if
7:07
you're the person that really loves tech
7:08
specs and all the latest
7:10
things in the latest technology that
7:11
couldn't be available well again you
7:13
need to do your research and figure out
7:15
what things are coming and know whether
7:17
or not you're cool with waiting a month
7:19
two months three months for that device
7:21
to come out because ultimately if you
7:23
buy something now and that device comes
7:25
out if you're the tech seeker you're
7:28
like me you're going to be let down with
7:29
your purchase and so you need to wait
7:31
and you need to pump the brakes and wait
7:33
for those new devices to come out what
7:34
it all comes down to in the end is
7:36
research know the market know what's
7:39
going on know what's available know how
7:41
much it costs and know what's coming
7:43
because once you're equipped with all of
7:45
this information and you can make a wise
7:47
purchasing decision on it you're gonna
7:49
buy something that you're going to enjoy
7:51
and use for months and months to come
7:53
