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

Purchased this on Cyber Monday. I previously had an HP Chromebook 14 and wanted another Chromebook. The screen is really nice, but has pretty big bezels (this empty space is similarly noticeable above the keyboard). Overall, just a bit bigger/heavier than youd expect a 13.5in laptop to be. Speakers sound pretty good, but they are on the bottom so they get distorted sometimes. Battery is pretty good so far. Performance is quick, but the fan on the bottom can get kinda noisy sometimes when doing something that isnt just basic browsing. I was playing a game (Helix Jump) and it at times was laggy, but performance was largely solid. Keyboard is good, but the weird bright spots when the backlit keyboard lights are on are definitely noticeable---though I dont really mind them. Stylus is kinda neat, however can ONLY be removed from a specific angle (tablet mode-ish) so be careful when trying to remove it. The lip to actually lift the screen off of the keyboard is extremely small and definitely tricky at times to open. Hope this provides a more informed purchase.

Build quality is solid. Its not a Mac or a Dell XPS but it also doesnt feel cheap or flimsy. The ability to flip into a large tablet is a great feature. The screen is above average and is full HD. Streaming looks wonderful. The keyboard is nice though I do wish it was backlit. It has a perfect amount of ports (USB-A, USB-C, HDMI, 3.5mm, SD) and charges via USB-C. The trackpad is extra large and works wonderfully. If Chrome OS is sufficient for your needs, this is an excellent laptop and streaming device.

The Acer Chromebook Spin 13 has all of the features of the other premium Chromebooks on the market, but at a much cheaper price.

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.

We purchased the Acer Chromebook Spin 314 in Feb 2023 for $345.49 and less than 2 month later, it started to turn off erratically. Each time, a hard turn on (using the side button) was required to turn it back on. Now, 3 months later, it turns off more frequently, and it is harder to turn back on each time. It is insanely annoying, and most certainly not an expected behavior for a Chromebook. I tried to return it (not possible, since I had passed the return date), and tried to contact the reseller eTechtronics to, at the minimum, get the computer serviced, or replaced. After multiple inquiries, and now several weeks, I did not receive any response back. I am truly disappointed with my experience with Amazon and eTechtronics and will most certainly never order computers on Amazon anymore.

This machine is snappy. The display is great. I purchased it because of Crostini which works as it should at this early stage of development. It is way ahead of the Chromebooks I recommend for my school district. The only problem I have is that the display crashes. Large gray vertical stripes appear on the screen, then it turns black. The only way to recover from this is to fold the laptop and reopen it immediately. This happened a lot while using Crostini, so I first blamed this on the fact that the project was in Beta. But now, it also happens while running Chrome or android apps. I am now starting to wonder if this is not a hardware or implementation issue. I have had to return Acer laptops in the past. Is it a one-off issue? Should I exchange the machine? Acer, please help...

I bought this laptop because it was used at a previous place of employment and I loved it. It is easy to use and has everything I need. I have no complaints at all!

Our 17yo daughter, whos not super computer-centered, had no problem setting this up and getting going. Very nice format, compact and powerful.

Easy to set up and use. Its very fast but I ordered it with additional RAM. It is for personal use. Its very lightweight, has tough construction, and built like a tank. This was a gift for my hubby and his review.

This is beautiful specimen of a chormebook. One, Id love to recommend. Its fast, the touchscreen is precise, and bright enough to use outside. However, apparently you play Russian roulette when buying this on Prime Day from Amazon. Mine came damaged even though the box looked fine. Started using it noticing one of the hinges was crooked. Noticed the slight dent and separation later. Tried to exchange, but Amazon only accepts a return. Buyer beware.
