Which is the best cheap Chromebook for personal use?

Chatting with the AC forums.

It comes in a 64 GB and 128 GB SSD version, with the bigger one retailing for $249 at Best Buy (although it sometimes goes on sale for around $230 or so). You might be able to find the 64 GB version for closer to $200, but since you can install Android apps, I'd...

Like to see the reviews on the Asus CM3 when it comes out. Single usbc port, but it also has a headphone jack. If the keyboard connection is better, it would definitely be on my list. Price depending, of course.
