A:AnswerSince this is a Chromebook you will need to purchase a separate Microsoft 365 license if that’s what you want - at that point depends on the package you buy. With it being a Chromebook altho on this unit I just use Google Docs ( compatible with excel, PowerPoint and word) and use Gmail for mail
A:AnswerThe specifications are: 65W USB-C AC adapter. It has an input voltage range of 100-240V, 1.5A, 50-60Hz, and an output of 20V, 3.25A. For price and availability you can call Acer at 866-658-2237, between 8am-5pm Central, Mon-Fri.
A:AnswerYes, but only through the web based Microsoft 360 subscription only as this is a Chromebook. All subscription web based apps work perfectly on this laptop.
A:AnswerYes. Linux apps run in Crostini (the Linux container) pop up windows that "just work" on the desktop. The only real limitation I have found so far is that Crostini does not support angle and pressure on a drawing tablet, so if you want to use Linux drawing applications, that's a non-starter. Everything else works flawlessly.
A:AnswerNo, Microsoft Office apps such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook cannot be installed on a Chromebook for offline use. Microsoft has ended support for Office apps on Chrome OS, and they are no longer available for download from the Google Play Store. However, you can use Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides to create and edit Microsoft Office files on your Chromebook.
A:AnswerBattery life is up to 10 hours on this Chromebook. This is based on the Chromebook in an idle state. Actual battery life will depend on how it is used, ie: light internet browsing vs audio or video streaming.
