Chromebooks are often<\/span> sold on their tight integration with the cloud: They’re essentially windows to the web and not much else. That comes with a variety of benefits, like never having to worry about losing an unsaved document, but it also means Chromebooks are less useful than Windows or macOS laptops when you don’t have an internet connection.<\/p>\n

However, it’s not true that Chromebooks<\/a> are complete bricks while they’re offline. With advances in web app and browser technology, you can now get quite a lot done on a Chromebook without an internet connection, with all your work resyncing when Wi-Fi is available again.<\/p>\n
