Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Go (11.6", Celeron, 4GB)
An 11.6-inch ChromeOS laptop weighing 1.06 kg, with a spill-resistant keyboard and a 40.2Wh battery rated for up to 11 hours of use.
The 11.6-inch Galaxy Chromebook Go is the smallest way into ChromeOS that Samsung makes here. It measures 287.9 x 202.3 x 15.9 mm and weighs 1.06 kg, which puts it closer to a hardback book than a laptop in a bag. Silver, spill-resistant and simple, it is aimed at younger students and second-machine duty.
Inside is an Intel Celeron N4500 running from 1.1GHz to 2.8GHz, with 4GB of LPDDR4x memory and 64GB of eMMC storage. That is a browser machine, and it is honest about it. The 40.2Wh battery is rated at up to 11 hours, and the 45W USB Type-C adapter charges through either of the two Type-C ports.
Ideal For
A 1.06 kg machine sized for smaller hands and smaller bags, with a spill-resistant keyboard and a nano security slot for classroom and locker use.
A light companion for the sofa, the kitchen or a hotel room, with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 so a wireless mouse and headphones connect without cables.
At 15.9 mm thick and just over a kilo, it fits a cabin bag easily, and a single 45W USB-C adapter is all the charging kit required.
Key Features
One of the lightest laptops in the range at 1.06 kg, measuring 287.9 x 202.3 x 15.9 mm, so it fits bags that a 15-inch machine will not.
The 40.2Wh lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 11 hours, which is a school day and the homework that follows it on a single charge.
Samsung specifies a spill-resistant keyboard, a sensible choice for a machine that will sit beside cereal bowls, mugs of tea and water bottles.
A 1366 x 768 LED-backlit display in a 16:9 shape, finished with an anti-glare coating that keeps reflections down in bright rooms.
Wireless runs on a 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 aerial with Bluetooth 5.1, so streaming, video calls and wireless accessories share the connection comfortably.
Two USB Type-C ports, a USB 3.2 Type-A port, a microSD reader and a headphone and microphone combo jack cover everyday accessories without adapters.
Sized for the youngest users
An 11.6-inch screen and a 1.06 kg chassis make a real difference to a child carrying a bag every day. The footprint of 287.9 x 202.3 mm fits a shared kitchen table alongside books, and the spill-resistant keyboard reflects where these machines actually live. Nothing here is fragile or fussy: it is a plain silver clamshell with a nano security slot, built to be picked up, used and put down again.
What 4GB and 64GB really mean
The 4GB of LPDDR4x memory sits on the board and cannot be upgraded, and the 64GB of eMMC storage is the same story. In practice that shapes how you use the machine. Keep documents and photos in the cloud, use the microSD reader for anything that needs to live locally, and treat browser tabs with a little restraint. Within those limits ChromeOS is comfortable; beyond them, a larger specification is the better answer.
Charging, ports and everyday connections
Power arrives over USB Type-C from a 45W adapter, and USB Power Delivery means either Type-C port can take it. That is genuinely convenient when the machine is charging on a kitchen worktop and the socket is on the wrong side. The remaining connections are a USB 3.2 Type-A port for older sticks and mice, a microSD reader for extra storage, and a combined headphone and microphone jack for wired earphones. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 handle everything wireless.
How It Compares
| What You Need | Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Primary school homework | 11.6-inch, 1.06 kg | Small enough for a child's bag and a shared table, with a spill-resistant keyboard for real family use. |
| A full school day | 40.2Wh battery, 11 hours | Rated for up to 11 hours, so a charger does not need to travel with the machine. |
| Browser-based coursework | ChromeOS with Celeron N4500 | Documents, research and video lessons run in the browser, with 2.8GHz on tap when a page gets busy. |
| Extra local storage | microSD card reader | The card slot adds space for downloads and photos beyond the 64GB of built-in eMMC storage. |
| Wireless headphones | Bluetooth 5.1 | Earphones, a mouse or a small speaker pair directly, leaving the combo jack free for wired listening. |
| Charging on the move | 45W USB-C, Power Delivery | One compact adapter, and either Type-C port accepts it, so the socket side of the desk stops mattering. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- Just 1.06 kg and 15.9 mm thick
- Rated for up to 11 hours on one charge
- Spill-resistant keyboard suited to family use
- Anti-glare 11.6-inch LED-backlit HD display
- Wi-Fi 6 on a 2x2 aerial with Bluetooth 5.1
- microSD reader adds storage beyond the built-in 64GB
- Charges over USB-C from a 45W adapter
Considerations
- The 4GB of LPDDR4x memory is fixed to the board, so it cannot be expanded at any stage.
- 64GB of eMMC storage and a 1366 x 768 screen make this a browser machine rather than a media workstation.
- There is no touchscreen and no discrete graphics, so demanding creative or gaming software is outside its remit.
What's in the Box
- Galaxy Chromebook Go x1
- 45W USB Type-C power adapter x1
