Acer Chromebook 14, Aluminum, 14-inch Full HD, Intel Celeron N3160, 4GB LPDDR3, 32GB, Chrome, CB3-431-C5FM

The computer arrived and the screen blips in and out. This is very disappointing, as this was a Christmas present for my youngest son.

My wife wanted this because she wanted a larger screen. Personally I think a smaller screen and less metal around the keyboard would be better. The metal can be cold.

I gave it 3 out of 5 stars, because there is NO SD CARD SLOT! I would have never paid 400 dollars if I knew it didnt have one. Its pretty much useless to us right now without an SD card slot.. Sigh. Sometimes this is why I hate buying thibgs on Amazon theres just so,much you dont know about a product until you receive the item.

Needed for work...

***UPDATE*** (with a second unit, the replacement)

I read tons of reviews before deciding on a Chromebook and then specifically on the Acer and not the Toshiba. I was looking for a very lightweight laptop, with a 13-14 inch screen. I use this exclusively when I travel but I still sometimes need to use Word and Excel. I almost bought the Toshiba but a few comments about the terrible customer service made me decide ultimately on the Acer.

not to sure yet how i like it. it seems a little slow and pitchers are not real clear. the price was good and it works but if i had the money i would look for something better

Put crouton on this and its a great machine. Battery life is overstated, but still great out of the box. Its really difficult compared to other chromebooks to get into developer mode when you want to take it to the fullest potential. Screen brightness is awful, but for an ips display its not bad. Overall would recommend.

First off, I want to say I LOVE Chromebooks. They are super easy to figure out, fast, and there is so much less bs to figure out like windows. There isnt any constant updates or an over abundance of apps and tabs. Get one. You will be pleased.

I brought this Chromebook mostly to take my writing with me. It has a nicer screen than my older one and boy does it run worlds better. I havent had any issues with it (and Ive had it for a while) and its very easy to carry around from work back home to travel. It gets the job done for what I need on the go and the battery life is fantastic. It took me a while to decide *which* Chromebook I wanted, but I dont regret going with this one.
