Chromebooks are typically inexpensive and plasticky devices, targeting those who want just a basic laptop experience at a low pricepoint. Dell's Chromebook 13 7310 bucks that trend rather emphatically, as pricing can go up to £913 for this particular model with a Core i5-5300U, 8GB RAM and a 13.3inch 1080p touch screen.

Clearly, Dell are targeting users who want the streamlined user experience that ChromeOS brings, but in a premium package. In this review today I take a look at the Chromebook 13 7310 and ask whether it is worth its £913 asking price.
