The internal components of the the AG15-31P-3947 are below average, but the Google web apps aren’t demanding, so the laptop should handle them well. If you want to have the best performance for these apps in a normal everyday laptop, you can consider some model with the Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 7 processor and no less than 8GB RAM.

The i3-N305 is a 2023 processor, but it is based on the 2022 12th Generation Intel Core, with some specs being stripped down. It has somewhat slower processor and integrated graphics performance than the 2022 12th Gen Core i3 U-series chips.
