Ronald	05/09/2024
[4 GB] I wanted a simple and fast system that used the latest technology. The Asus Chromebox 4 fit the bill. I have used computers for over 40 years and the Chromebox is by far the easiest to set up and use. 5

benjamin	01/09/2024
[5.0] All my peripherals work seamlessly without any hiccups what so ever. This is definitely an upgrade from my old chromebox 2 and 3. this number 4 is the cream of the crop and am looking forward to #5. 5

Mike	28/08/2024
[4 GB] Previously ran a ChromeBOX CSi3 - [INTEL Core i3 - 8130U, 8GB RAM] We run multiple tabs with [email (sometimes multiple email accounts), a Database / Scheduler; some photograph manuipulation (not editing) and printing to multiple printers]. I was concerned that the new Chromebox5A with the CELERON 7305 processor and 8GB RAM might not match the performance of the older Intel CORE processor. WRONG! The improvement in overall performance and in the graphic subsystem was surprising to me and immediatly noticiable to the end user. This unit performs very well and is more responsive than the previous Chromebox 3i. I highly recommend this device for similar work loads. 5

[Integrated] Powerful mini-PC with low noise. Noise under load is lower than similar mini-PC's and does not carry much high pitch to sound more agreeable. 5

Mordechai	23/08/2024
[2x HDMI 2.0] This device is fasts enough to handle heavy uses like databases etc. Chrome is an amazing operating system, much safer than any other out there. The vast majority of users, even in a business setting, will enjoy this much more than Windows. After all, most folks do everything online. Chrome OS is fast, secure, easy to use, less expensive AND no virus software/expense. Docs are saved automatically, searchable etc. Setting a new device literally takes a few minutes and everything is set up the same as it was on the old machine. Done. 5

Max	26/07/2024
