Powered by the Intel Evo platform, the 2-in-1 high-performance Acer Chromebook Spin 714 empowers users to stay productive anywhere with its 16:10 14” WUXGA touch display, 13th Gen Intel Core i5 processor, QHD webcam and military-grade durability. At just over 3 lbs., this sleek machine is not only fast and efficient, but it features a bevy of features such as a quick-chargeable 10-hour battery and a 360 convertible hinge so you have the flexibility to work in any mode.
Q: Does this new (2023) model include the garaged stylus like the previous (2021) model?
A: According to ChromeUnboxed it doesn't have a garaged stylus but will work with a USI
A: The 5GB of RAM is "used" but it really isn't. Since Chromebooks are variants of Linux (no matter how slight) - that ram you think is used but isn't is being held back as idle ram waiting to be used. To get a better picture run "free -m' either under chrome's console/terminal. Or run it under the Linux Chrome environment. You have (almost) all 8gb at your disposal!
Q: What are the differences between this 2023 model and the 714 released in 2022?
A: Yes- you lose the garaged stylus. But you do get 13th gen Intel CPU; which buys you anywhere from 11% to 49% higher performance, at better power efficiency. Simply put, more power while keeping the long lasting battery life.
