The CPU is soldered on this, along with all of the Chromebooks. In addition to that, you need a Xeon ready mobile chipset which is typically only found in the likes of the HP Zbook/Dell Precision/ThinkPad P Series ISV certified mobile workstations (Hint: ALL of these are considered “high end”, although workstation is often interchanged with the term “workstation” for standard PCs), and it’s still considered an option with all 3 vendors. In addition to being an add-on upgrade, the cost to get a Mobile Xeon is not cheap due to the cost of the CPU+chipset pairing required, often needing a entirely different motherboard. Your parents aren’t going to buy you a Xeon laptop for school.

You only see a subset of the used population with Xeon parts due to the cost for a reason - most people get Xeon sticker shock, and because of the amount of Xeon vs Core i models Xeon machines fetch a premium :-(. Believe it or not, I’d love to own a Xeon Zbook 17 (Dreamcolor LCD), but they’re already expensive with the i7 used - add on a Xeon motherboard… OUCH! The option already hikes a NEW Zbook 17 into hollywood/bulk college fund prices due to the low upgrade rate when the machine was new, regardless of OEM.

You can also load the Xeon machines with a ton of RAM - some max at 128GB, with others going to 256GB with 4 DIMM slots. As tempting as it sounds, you don't need it as a student - it’s only sensible for a small percentage of people. An example of when it helps is say I ran 4K XVAC video or processing RAW images off of a high end mirrorless camera through the laptop (AND I am running it through Adobe Premier or Photoshop CC) - this is where Mobile Xeon shines, not Google Docs school work. The Celeron is plenty for an average student with a Chromebook! I wouldn’t need 128GB, but I’d probably spring for 2x32GB on a 4 DIMM machine so I can bring it up from 64>128GB easily.

Google Meet is a major CPU hog.

@The Mariocrafter Still doesn't require a Xeon. Maybe an i5 but that's it.

You might be able to Ball Grid Array solder a compatible Intel System on Chip of the same generation (look into the Bay Trail Celeron/Pentium N series) with more cache or cores, or upgrade RAM if it isn’t soldered down. (NOTE: HP and probably other manufacturers have been utilizing early boot security to lock people to their parts only) Also note that the power delivery might only be able to handle your system on chip’s power usage, others may draw more power.

Xeons and most of the Core series use different sockets.

Not only different boards with Xeon, but different boards. How do you think they get 128/256GB Xeon systems and 64GB non-Xeon setups? They also need a lot more cooling so it will overheat in a 11" Chromebook.

Chipset is also completely different, even on mobile. The laptops also tend to come with other expensive options like HP DreamColor (10/12-bit factory calibrated IPS). If you do not know what makes 10-bit IPS special, it's not an option you need.
