Review from dpreview.com

Got lucky and was able to snatch one from another store - will say which one in a comment to this review - but, I feel like I must say this upfront, the Chromebit's official price is $85 and nobody should pay more. If or nobody else seems to be carrying it at this time, just wait for a few days, no big deal. But let me go on with my review.

WHAT IS THIS?

The Chromebit is the guts of a Chromebook crammed into a stick the size of a Chromecast, give and take an extra inch or 2. It comes with no battery, speakers, microphone, camera, touchpad, keyboard or display and the only physical ports are HDMI and USB but, other than that, it's what you would typically find and get out of a classical Chromebook

Now onto the actual Surface Pro 4 Review.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

It's as simple as plugging the Chromebit at the back of a TV or monitor that support HDMI and there is a short HDMI extension cable provided. There is a small power supply so you will need an standard AC outlet to plug it in. Then, you either connect a keyboard and mouse through a USB dongle or pair them through Bluetooth and there's your Chromebook up and running. If you need to plug in more than one dongle, you can use an inexpensive USB hub and, there you have it, more USB ports. Once it's up, it's very much a Chromebook so if you like Chromebooks, this is just another way of using one.

So what is this? It's a ChromeOS powered PC on a stick. It can plug into the back of a TV and then pair up with a wireless keyboard and mouse for what is a pretty decent PC-like experience. Just note that ChromeOS is a little different than Windows (it mostly boots up to just a Chrome web browser).
