Bought on Prime for my adult son. He’s absolutely thrilled with it. However, he is only using it for browsing and music. It’s compact, lightweight and the speed is excellent. He feels it is a good buy!
Easy to use first crome one we tried others been widows or mac but annoying cannot update them anymore so thought we try crome. Only strange thing is in crome you cannot have icons on home screen but ok once you get use to
Amazing chromebook, converts to a tablet when needed. Nice feeling keyboard, trackpad is very precise. Screen is clear and touch function is excellent. I think this is brilliant value as well. It is also very light, under a kilo I think. Feels sturdy and the hinge is first class, very happy.
I needed a very light and versatile laptop that I could carry in my backpack and work while on the train or in the evenings when I travel. I only use it for emails and little else but so far I’m happy with my purchase. It weighs just 1 kilo and starts up very quickly, so it’s ideal for what I wanted. The build quality is not a 10, as it’s super lightweight and small, but it’s good. I got it for just under 180 so super value for money. I always connect it to wifi and so far so good, good connectivity.
So this is my first new laptop in a while.. was used to the heavier Samsung 14″ from years ago. The keyboard-touchscreen option is so useful. Lovely and light but doesn’t feel feeble or fragile. The display is clear and sharp enough, the keypad nice to use and mousepad responsive, though obviously I don’t have much experience of laptops this modern. I’d say it runs a little slower than I expected, tho I have been transferring a large volume of files. I’m massively struggling with the split screen, cannot get it to work despite using it easily on other computers. Maybe that’s just me. The only think I’m mad about is that I cannot pin pictures/documents to the desktop. I am used to having a cluttered screen when on turning on my laptop.. with important files sitting readily available. I’ve done some googling for workarounds, but there arent any. The fact you can have apps but not individual files and folders on your main screen is infuriating. Apart from that I do love this laptop and it’s genuinely great value for money.
Having had an Apple iPad for a while, I decided to change to a Chromebook instead. I had done some extensive research into which was the best one out there for the budget I had at the time. This one came in just under 200 which was ideal.
The Acer Chromebook is very easy to set up, the instructions were clear and concise as soon as your turned it on. The screen is sharp and videos watched on YouTube look good. The sound is probably the only let down because it sounds very tinny. But, if you put a good set of headphones in then that should sort that issue out.
It is incredibly lightweight as well. Laptops of old used to leave your legs feeling dead after using them they were that heavy. The battery life is amazing! I only use it in the evenings and It still has plenty of battery charge left after 3 or 4 days. Charging doesn’t take long either, roughly 90 minutes until it’s at 100%. Less if you’re charging with higher battery life left.
When doing your research look at when the automatic updates finish. Thankfully, I will continue to receive updates up until 2026. Which is more than enough for me.
I can highly recommend this Chromebook if you’re on a tight budget. If money is no object then are some really good ones out there to.
Since the demise of my last Windows laptop, I’ve done all my computer based tasks on my tablet. But, suddenly needing to write several months worth of documents, the virtual keyboard has shown it’s limitations. Using a Bluetooth keyboard also wasn’t ideal with the small screen, so I decided to jump ship and get my first Chromebook.
There are a few adjustments to make after so many years with Microsoft, but they are easily made and for such a comparatively low price I’m very impressed. Google Drive means my files are available on all my Android tablet, start up takes almost no time, it’s light weight, quiet, with a long battery life.
You’ll notice the screen could be better when streaming videos etc, with the contrast being a little low, but it’s perfectly watchable and sharp & clear when dealing with text.
A Chromebook might not fit all your needs (eg gaming, bespoke software etc) but as a workhorse, it’s ideal.
