The ASUS Chromebook CX15 is a 15.6-inch Chrome OS laptop suited to students, remote workers and everyday users who live inside a browser and need a full-day machine without paying a premium. It pairs an Intel Processor N50 with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of eMMC storage, giving enough headroom for cloud-based work, streaming and video calls when you are not relying on local apps.
Why this product
Full HD screen with narrow bezel
The 15.6-inch 1920 × 1080 anti-glare display reaches an 87% screen-to-body ratio, so you get a large working area without an oversized chassis.
Up to 12-hour battery life
A 42 Wh three-cell battery is rated for up to 12 hours, covering a full working or study day between charges.
PD fast charging via USB-C
It supports PD fast charging through either USB-C port; a charger rated between 35 W and 45 W is required.
Wi-Fi 6 for faster wireless
Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with a 2×2 antenna configuration keeps connections stable on busy networks.
Webcam shutter for privacy
The 720p HD webcam has a built-in physical shutter so you can block the lens entirely when it is not in use.
Spill-resistant keyboard
The chiclet keyboard is spill-resistant with 1.35 mm of key travel, reducing the risk of liquid damage during everyday use.

- Runs Chrome OS — works with all Google Workspace apps, Android apps from the Play Store, and web-based tools.
- Both USB-C ports support display output and power delivery, so you can connect a monitor or charge from either side.
- HDMI 1.4 output lets you connect to a monitor or TV directly without an adapter.
- PD fast charging requires a charger with an output of 35 W minimum and 45 W maximum — not all USB-C chargers will fast-charge this device.
- Does not run Windows or macOS software natively — applications must have a Chrome OS, Android or web-based version.
- RAM is soldered on-board with a maximum of 4 GB and cannot be upgraded after purchase.
Best for
- Cloud-first users who do most of their work inside a browser or Google Workspace and do not need locally installed desktop software.
- Students who need a light, portable machine — at 1.59 kg — with a full day's battery life for lectures and study.
- Video call users who value the built-in privacy shutter, HD webcam and microphone for regular remote meetings.
- Buyers on a budget who want a large 15.6-inch screen and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity without needing high local processing power.
Trade-offs
- Power users who run local video editing, 3D rendering or other CPU-intensive applications — the Intel N50 with 4 GB of RAM is designed for light workloads only.
- Windows or macOS users who depend on software that has no Chrome OS, Android or web equivalent.
- Large local storage needs — 64 GB of eMMC is limited if you store many large files locally rather than in the cloud.
- Touchscreen users — the display is non-touch, so interactions are limited to the keyboard and touchpad.
This product supports PD fast charging (harmonised fast charging). The required output of a suitable charging device is 35W minimum and 45W maximum.
If you're after a Chromebook that handles browsing, emails, streaming and light work without fuss, the ASUS CX15 is a solid choice. It has an Intel Processor N50 with 4GB RAM and 64GB eMMC storage, enough for basics when working in the cloud via Chrome OS.
The 15.6-inch Full HD screen offers a decent workspace with a narrow bezel pushing the screen-to-body ratio to 87%, giving more display in a compact frame. At 1.59kg, it's light to carry, and the battery lasts up to 12 hours, so you can go a full day without hunting for a plug.
Connectivity includes dual-band Wi-Fi 6 for fast, stable connections, 2 USB 3.2 Type-C ports, 1 USB Type-A, HDMI output for a monitor or TV, and a headphone jack. Ports are grouped on the upper left, leaving space for a mouse on the right. There's an HD webcam with a built-in shutter for privacy, a built-in microphone, and Bluetooth for wireless accessories.
Chrome OS offers instant setup, built-in virus protection, and seamless access to Google apps.
