For the starting version. Each part is measured the same way for every laptop (processor and graphics from benchmark results) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Clearly faster than the Celeron N4500 model in everyday browsing
  • Two USB-C ports plus USB-A and HDMI
  • Light, sturdy and fingerprint-resistant
  • Wide viewing angles
  • Much faster than older Celeron Chromebooks
  • Light and compact
  • Fanless and silent

Cons

  • Dim, slightly washed-out screen
  • All ports on the left side
  • Slows with video calls, heavy sheets or several Android apps
  • About 5-6 hours of real use, half the claim
  • 4 GB RAM limits multitasking
  • eMMC storage slows with lots of data
  • Screen colours are unremarkable
  • HelenTechNov 2025

    A clear step up among entry-level Chromebooks for browsing and web apps, but weak at multitasking and video calls; the 4 GB version is the better buy (tested: CX1405CTA-S60592, Intel N50, 8 GB, 64 GB - Japan model, same chip as India).

  • PC-WELTJan 2026

    A solid budget 14-inch Chromebook for web work, school and streaming, limited by its 4 GB RAM and eMMC storage (tested: CX1405CTA-NK0438, Intel N150, 4 GB, 128 GB, TN screen).

  • PCWorldJan 2026

    A fast, practical 14-inch Chromebook that beats typical entry models while staying cheap (tested: Chromebook Plus CX14 CX1405CTA with Core 3 N355, 8 GB, 128 GB, IPS - a faster version than India's N50).

  • NotebookcheckSep 2025

    Silent and well built with long battery life, but slow and with a dim TN screen with poor viewing angles: only for basic typing (tested: older CX1405CKA, Celeron N4500, 4 GB, 128 GB - same body, slower chip than the N50).
