Product details

Google Chrome OS puts an end to the unnecessarily complicated operation of PC systems. Even inexperienced users can quickly find their way around – just turn it on and get started. Multiple user accounts can also be created, so that each user has their own access when shared. This keeps everyone's data private and protected. The intuitive user interface allows access to tens of thousands of Chrome apps that can be downloaded from the Chrome Web Store. Thanks to the wide range of offline apps, you can edit documents, play games, and use other popular apps even without an internet connection.
