Please note that in order to take full advantage of Chrome OS, you will need to be connected to the Internet.

Chrome OS
Using Linux as a base, Google designed Chrome OS to work exclusively with web applications. The user interface takes a minimalist approach, which greatly resembles the Google Chrome web browser. Chrome OS was built for people who spend a majority, if not all, of their time on the computer connected to the Internet. The only application that comes installed on Chrome OS is a special Google Chrome web browser with an integrated media player and file manager. All other applications are accessed by adding apps from the Google Chrome Web Store. Since Chrome OS relies entirely on Google's web apps and access to Google's services, it is highly recommended that you connect to the Internet to optimize your Chrome OS experience.
Google Play
In addition to Chrome OS, this Chromebook supports Google Play apps, so you can access all your favorite Android work, play, or creative apps as needed.
180° Hinge
The 180° hinge on the Chromebook C523 lets you lay it completely flat for an easier time sharing onscreen content with others. It's also been tested with over 20,000 open-and-close cycles to ensure long-term reliability.
Sound
Built with dual stereo speakers, the Chromebook C523 can deliver surround-sound effects and crisp, powerful sound for an immersive listening experience.
Battery
To keep up with your busy day-to-day life, the Chromebook C523 is designed to last for up to 10 hours on a single charge. Please note that battery life will vary depending on use.
USB Type-C
The two USB Type-C ports on the Chromebook C523 adhere to USB 3.1 Gen 1 standards, capable of transferring data at up to 5 Gb/s, delivering power, and even connecting displays via DP Alt mode.
