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

I bought this Acer Chromebook after considering what I wanted in a Chromebook and reading the reviews on Amazon. I was very pleased with my purchase except for the noise from the fan. It WAS SUPER LOUD! People in the next room would ask if I had a hair-dryer going. I decided I just couldnt live with it any longer and so I had Amazon create a return and I started to get ready to box it up.... thats when I figured out the problem with the fan noise!

I love this machine because its really powerful and usb C charging over night provides a full charge. I also charge my samsung gear watch and oneplus 7 pro via usb from the laptop with an awesome little usb to hdmi adapter that has a couple extra usb ports.

Complete garbage. Does not work after a month of use. Makes you create new password then locks you out asking for your old password. Manufacture troubleshoot is just to reset. Then you are in the same problem of logging in.

I have a workstation where I run real applications, so I was very interested in using crositini/linux and ssh -X with a chromebook to have a cheap mobile laptop. The touchscreen and tablet form factor seemed worth trying out as well. Im completely satisfied on both fronts. 80+% of what I do I can do natively on the Chromebook (email, office apps, etc), and indeed the linux VM does everything I hoped it would. I really like having a touch-screen and stylus for taking notes on. The battery life is excellent but its only a month old. Even if I forget to plug it in overnight, I can usually go the second day just fine if Im careful with it. But I easily get a full days work out of it on a full charge even heavy use with the screen full-bright.

Very much nice spec balance.

Great! Highly recommend it.

Love this

Way faster than a windows machine. Super fast start and browsing. Great machine. Love it.

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.
