    I bought this because I had to give back a school-issued chromebook. This one is even better. Be aware the chromebooks are really only good for using the internet e.g. you can't download many applications or anything.

    Not a bad little machine. Bought it for my mom who is technologically challenged, so ease of use was important. So far, no complaints. It does exactly what it needs to do and she’s been able to utilize it without complication this far.

    I love my new laptop! My old Chromebook was very old and slowing down. A Best Buy Representative suggested I get a new computer and I'm glad I did Now I'm applying for new jobs and I'm so happy my new Chromebook works so well.

    Such a great find! I will use this for school and personal use. The touch screen is very simple to use. The picture quality is very clear and vibrant! The keyboard could’ve benefited having a backlight.. other than that, this laptop is great for the price.

    This is my second Acer Chromebook and in both cases I have found them to be fast, durable, and efficient, especially for the price point. Also, since I love to use google workspace, it works perfectly for me.

    For the price point this Chromebook is meeting all my needs. I needed a simple device just to manage emails, basic Office suite, and storing information. I wanted something light weight so I can move it around the house comfortably but needed enough processing power to meet my work load (which is very minimal). The Acer Chromebook 314 met all my needs as this is a very basic Chromebook. I didn't want a traditional laptop as the cost was much higher than what I needed it for. My only con for this Chromebook is that there is a slight lag when opening apps. I don't watch any video on this so I can't speak on the video/sound quality. I would say this device is perfect for anyone looking for a low budget Chromebook as long as they are familiar with how Chromebooks work as this is not a laptop.

    Great device for the money. Nothing flashy, but my daughter needed this to continue doing some research and writing after turning in her school device when the school year ended. It gets a lot of use!
