Acer Chromebook Spin 314 Convertible Laptop | Intel Pentium Silver N6000 | 14 HD Corning Gorilla Glass Touch Display | 4GB LPDDR4X | 128GB eMMC | Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 | Chrome OS | CP314-1H-P9G7

Overall not really happy with anything this chromebook has to offer.

This is our first tablet/laptop. Got this so my wife could start doing sketches and digital coloring as well as just being able to use it for web browsing. The set up was super easy and fast. We were able to sign into our wireless network and away we went. The touch screen is really responsive and the stylus isnt uncomfortable and feels nice in the hand. My kids love it for school work as well as just digital coloring. Its a good entry level tablet/laptop for sketching. I am not super techy so I cant speak to the hardware side of it, I just know its fast and we havent had any issues with space or speed. I will update if issues arise.

This is an excellent product and a great replacement for Windows. This has everything I wanted (touch screen, stylus, fold back design, and more). I only gave it four stars because of one small flaw. It seem that all Chromebooks put the cooling vent intake on the bottom and exhaust out the back, this one does. But they do not leave enough room for the fan (under the unit) to pull in air and it tends to get hot if you do not prop it up a little in the back or get a cooling pad.

The operating system crashed after 3 months. Acer wouldnt reinstall operating system because LCD screen had small crack. They wanted the cost of new computer to fix LCD first. I didnt expect them to fix the screen- just wanted something functional to get my son through the next 6 months of school.

I wanted to get a feel for everything a Chromebook was capable of and how good an experience it could be, so I went looking for one with a broad feature set, generous configuration, and was of high quality.

I recently bought a pretty expensive hp pavillion PC, the screen looked so horrible and pixels where visible, maybe because I was use to my old chromebook. I bought this new chromebook and love it, the screen could be brighter but its its vibrant and the resolution is great. Easy to use, not like windows this works just like my android phone. I wanted a PC but I hate windows and mac so I chose a chromebook.

Perfect for my school needs.

Everything is smooth so far. I purchased a used one and hoped for the best that it would come out great since thats what the ratings said. And I wasnt disappointed. Im very new to chromebooks, and this a great one to start with. I was researching pixelbooks, surface pros, iPad pros and everything in between; came to the conclusion that chromebooks are the best bang for your buck.

I would recommend this more for a student, not much of a work station, or a notebook, more like a college campus tool. At first I was impressed, I thought I could have used this to continue to learn coding Python, Java, C, etc... But after a while the limitations became very apparent, yes Linux is available, but limited, most of the things you can download are some what functional, but its definitely not a notebook compression. Before any one shuts this review for the fact that the purpose of this was for internet browsing capabilities, just keep this in mind, remember tablets, yeah, also why would Acer out in hardware comparable to their windows version of the spin 13 in the spin 15 charging a hundred dollar more, wtf? As I can see, Chromebooks are just another tablet in a market saturated with gadgets we dont even need when the phone market has eliminated the need for a internet only tablet aka Chromebooks. Get a real notebook dont make the mistake I did, I am now trying to save up for a real notebook. Google stop making more useless gadgets, all we ask is for a simple laptop that can be used for learning, working, coding at a reasonable price, mind you there are Linux laptops with the same hardware as this spin 13 yet they charge a thousand, why? Google has proven that the prices some of these notebook charge today may not be solely on the hardware but based on licensing, heck theres even a MacBook with the same specs as the spin 13 for thousands. Wished there was a reasonable laptop for people who dont wish to break the bank, and wish to use em for work purposes, if it could be a Linux too, that would be a plus, nothing against windows but window is far too restrictive on letting you mess with it, Chromebook is even worse then Windows not allowing you to do much unless approved by the higher up. FYI dont buy the Acer Spin 13, get the windows version instead, for a hundred dollar more, you can actually use it as a laptop, and with the same hardware too which shows you what a scan Chromebook and windows really are.

The good: This is my 2nd Chromebook and this one has a lot more features!. As long as you have a gmail account, setup takes just a couple minutes. This will automatically power on when opened, even when it is shut off from the last time. All programs are app based and so this requires WiFi. The screen can be flipped completely and used as a tablet. Hitting the keys, didnt seem to cause any issues in tablet mode. As a laptop, the touchscreen still functions. I hooked up an external mouse and it automatically recognized it, with no wait time! Google has tons of apps that can be added. Everything is stored via the cloud, which keeps this computer really fast as nothing needs to load. Google constantly is doing upgrades, so this will work at its total potential. The keyboard lights up and since there are no moving parts, battery life is quite good. This can be charged connecting to a USB C or via an outlet with the included cord.
