Question 1

Can this model run Android apps or is it limited to the Webstore?  I see that the XE500C13 can, but am not sure about this one.

Accepted Answer

The only thing this chromebook can do is run the apps from the browser.  Since its a old version you can't upgrade to the newest version of the OS.  I ended up giving the thing away.

B grade means that it have scuffs, some of the outer casing is faded or has nicks.  The one I received only had faded paint on the casing.

Question 3

What does "B Grade" refer to?

Accepted Answer

Refurbished items are items that were returned, tested and restored to manufacturer specifications. Here are some examples:

Items returned due to defect and restored to manufacturer specifications.

Items returned for reasons other than defect.

Items that were never used, but the factory seal was opened.

Items returned because their box was damaged in shipping.

Items used in field tests, sales displays or demonstrations.

You will sometimes see B Grade (or even C Grade) in the title of refurbished items, along with the item's condition (scratch and dent, etc.) provided by the refurbishing vendor. However, sometimes just the grade is listed, with no details about the condition.

B grade refers to units that may have dents, chips, or scuffs on the body. The keyboard may be shiny or worn down and hair line scratches or scuffs may be on the screen.

C grade refers to units that may have dents, cracks, chips, or scuffs on the body. The keyboard may be shiny or worn down and there may be scratches or dark sopts on the LCD screen.
