Acer - Chromebook Plus Spin 714 Intel Evo Laptop - 14" WUXGA Touch - Intel Core i5 - 8GB RAM - 256GB SSD - Steel Gray

I've been using the Acer Chromebook Spin 714 since November 27, 2023, and it's become an essential tool for both my personal and professional life. The performance is outstanding - it's fast, quiet, and handles multitasking with ease. The standout feature for me has to be the screen; it's stunningly bright and offers spectacular luminance, making every task more enjoyable. As for the design, it's sleek and modern. Transitioning to ChromeOS was a breeze, and I've grown to love its simplicity and efficiency. Battery life is another high point, easily lasting over two days on standby, and it's yet to die on me during use, which is impressive. The touchscreen adds a layer of convenience and responsiveness that I didn't realize I needed, but now can't do without. Overall, I think it's perfect as is, a testament to Acer's commitment to quality and user experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and beautifully designed Chromebook!

The best chromebook i have used. Im able to edit and make videos on it. Which for its price and being a chromebook is amazing. Something that i have wanted to be able to do for a while. And I am able to do that on this chromebook. It is the absolute bes chromebook I have ever used. The keyboard has decent travel for being so thin. Port selection is nice. But you take up one of the 2 usb c ports when you plug it in to charge. The only 2 major issues I have with it is 1. the lack of an sd card slot. Not being able to expand the storage is a little bit of a killer. But the amout of processing power and the capabilities of this chromebook outway that, at least for me. 2. The battery life is a little lack luster. Somedays it is almost 8 hours. Some days its 2hours. And that is not doing heavy task. But I am able to over look those 2 things because of performance and capabilities of this chromebook. Especially for the price. I'm able to do the same stuff on this as what a $1000+ laptop cost. Now im not lugging a 8lb msi around to do video/picture editing and writing. Even gaming using emulator and android apps run great. Ps2 emulation is even great. Beyond happy with this purchase. I would highly recommend this to anyone want a fully capable chromebook to conquer just about every task. I say just about because I have yet to find something it can't do. But im sure someone will at some point if they push it hard enough.

I ordered to use for school. The order arrived within the quoted time. I compared this laptop with many others and I found that this was by far the one with quality features for a fraction of the cost. I found that the processing speed was more than efficient to handle multiple open tasks with no lagging. I have even had movies playing while maneuvering through different tasks and still no lagging. In my opinion, the big difference between this laptop and others was the feature to flip the keyboard back and use the laptop as a large tablet and using the touchscreen feature. The flip feature has come in handy when drawing being that it is easier to precisely draw with the laptop folded. A touchscreen was a must for me because it was easier to download assignments and write on the laptop using a stylus. It has saved me printer ink and paper because I can complete the assignment online using my own handwriting. The privacy shutter is one of my favorite things because I can log into a class or zoom and have the privacy shutter closed and easily open when I’m ready to be seen. I know this isn’t necessary but I love the feature and knowing it is closed all the time unless I need to use it. The screen clarity will not disappoint! The clarity of this screen is crisp & clear & great quality. The backlit keyboard was useful when sitting in the bed or in a darker lit place but it wasn’t a big deal if I didn’t have it. I like the laptop protector which isn’t a selling point but more of a bonus. I like the soft cushion and protective feature & that it had an extra pocket on the outside. It was perfect for carrying my stylus and a couple other small items. I have not had any issues with my purchase nor any complaints about the quality of the product. Needless to say, I am more than pleased.

Have not yet attempted to put it under strain but overall good first impressions. Runs fast enough for me and colors are vivid enough. Touch screen works very well and there were no issues with the initial startup. Overall, I believe it will last me a long time without need for upgrade.

A good machine but with a few issues: 1. Even at top volume, the sound is too quiet. If there is a fan on in the room, I have trouble hearing a movie. 2. When the lid is open, the computer does not sit flat. Most of the weight is on the edge of the lid. This would not be a big deal, except that I rest the laptop on my legs when I use it, and the edge of the lid is quite sharp. I have to move the laptop every few minutes because of the painful red lines that it digs into my legs.

Love it! It’s so easy to use especially because of the touch screen. It’s fast and secure.

Great product and great sales on it as well. Very happy!

Chromebook arrived with bottom of case color fading. Otherwise, everything else is as expected. Due to that I would classify its condition as less than excellent.
