And the iPad’s 10.2-inch Retina display is far more than twice as good, with a much higher 2,160-by-1,620-pixel resolution and only slightly less surface area than the Chromebook 3’s screen. If all you need is a machine to browse the internet, which is what Chromebooks are intended to do, the screen is the most important part of the device.

The colorful Google Chrome logo is set into the upper right corner of the display lid, and a striped pattern fills the space below it and contrasts nicely with the solid Onyx Black color that makes up the rest of the lid.
