I get asked quite often, “Which Chromebook should I buy?” In many ways, I’m humbled that people trust me to help them make this decision. In other ways, I’m at a loss to help. For many people, they’ve decided to get a Chromebook because of marketing or because their child wants one or because they’ve been told to by someone who is tired of providing family tech support.

After answering this single question so many times over the years, I’ve actually come up with a pretty simple line of comeback questions that help me assist people in making the right decision for themselves. After all, the landscape of Chromebooks is rapidly changing and evolving. Not only are there new devices, there are price fluctuations that are too big not to make a massive difference in someone’s purchase decision. In a market like that, there’s no single answer to the question, but there are better ways for potential buyers to better discern what is best for them at any given time.

So, let’s go through those questions I ask to every person who asks me about which Chromebook to buy. My hope is that after you’ve thought through these five questions, you’ll be fully equipped to walk into Best Buy or surf over to Amazon and sort out what devices work best for your needs.

1.) Is a Chromebook even a good fit for you?
2.) What sort of form factor fits your needs?
3.) How concerned are you with quality and feel?
4.) What are your expectations when you open the lid (screen/keyboard/trackpad)?
5.) Are you a power user or casual one?
