    This computer was alright if you're not looking to do much. Basically the kiddos play games on it but I wouldn't recommend for schooling or work.

    I have 2 Dell Laptops, (1 recently bought from Best Buy) and a MacBook Air, but this is my first Chromebook. There are a few things about this Chromebook I don't like, the main issue is that many of my Google Play Store apps installed on my Android phone will not install on this Android Chromebook and I have no idea why. My VLC Media Player 'performs' so poorly that watching a movie on this Chromebook is impossible, I haven't even bothered to attempt to play music. I though about sending it back, but reluctantly I'll keep it. At this price I really wasn't expecting much, but I was expecting more. In my opinion this is not a laptop, it's a toy and my grandchildren can play with it when they come to visit, it'll help keep them away from my 2 Dells and MacBook Air, so it will serve some purpose. All said and done I would not recommend this Chromebook. I don't know if I bought a 'lemon' or just an inferior product, spend a few dollars more a buy a decent Chromebook, because this one ain't it.

      Dear Lamont,
      Chromebooks are different from Windows laptop products in that they are designed to be used primarily while connected to the Internet, with most applications and documents living in the cloud. Because of this they don’t have much for on-board storage but they also are not expensive either. Chromebooks run off apps like an Android phone or tablet so you cannot download and install applications or .exe files. If you need to use third party software applications that must be installed on the computer, a Chromebook is likely not for you, where a Windows laptop would suit you better. If you have any questions or need help with your Chromebook, please feel free to contact our support team at 866-695-2237; they are available to assist 24/7 for in-warranty products.

    Acer vs. HP ???

    By no means am I a computer expert so I only go by the ease and speed of how my Chromebook functions. In comparison to my HP Chromebook (used for over 8 1/2 years), this Acer boots up slower and I had to powerwash it after about a month because it would just not go to the next page or function. If I could do it over again, I would get another HP Chromebook.

    It's good enough to bring to class but I would never recommend this to someone who needs an actual, functioning laptop to get work done. Being forced to use the web version of Office is bad enough but it freezes, lags, and the battery is pretty quickly showing that it's not going to last.

    I bought this on sale for $129.00. I was charged $148.21 for this item. Orig price was $349. I bought a mouse that was $20.00 and got that for $9.99. Dont know where the extra $20 came from. Tried calling them and of course I spoke to someone in another country who I couldnt understand and she finally told me to call my bank and they will take care of it. Horrible customer service

    Please just invest in a laptop because the apps don't work properly. Too late to return so this will just collect dust because it's useless. Waste of money.... I now see why the price was so low.

    If I could go less than one star I would. Bought this as a gift and it does not work!! It freezes, goes black and has needed to be power washed twice. It was opened on Christmas. The moment we went to use it it started acting up. It sucks to have a disappointed family member…will return immediately!
