Answered by TeamAcerThere is no indication this is a refurbished product and also Best Buy shows the warranty as a standard one year manufacturer's warranty.
Does this have built-in satellite GPS? (capable without wifi)
Answered by TeamAcerNo.
Will this run Steam? I want to play games on this, not just use the Steam app.
Answered by TeamAcerThe Acer CP312-1HN-34Z7 cannot practically run native Steam games. This model typically features an ARM processor, limited storage (often 32GB to 64GB), and only 4GB of RAM. Steam gaming requires an Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB+ of RAM, and is entirely unsupported on ARM hardware.
Which processor is used in the Chromebook?
The Chromebook uses the Intel Core i3-N305 Processor.
