    The Chromebook 512 is an updated version of my original Chromebook, on which tech support was soon to expire. It is sturdy, small and has the usual simplicity and cloud storage of Chromebooks. It is very effective for travelers, but does not have the many capabilities of Apple Ipads. An Ipad with an attached keyboard provides a broader range of options,

    Solid Chromebook

    The Acer - Chromebook 512 – 12” IPS Display - Intel Celeron N4020 - 4GB Memory - 32GB eMMC is a solid chromebook. The construction feels nice and all seams fit well. Setup is a breeze with the walk through wizard. You can have it up and running in under 5 minutes. It's quick to start up and will handle day to day surfing/streaming and online classes as needed. Has two USB ports for peripherals or data transfers. Plus two USB-C for charging and USB-C peripherals. The rugged construction comes with bumper guards, that are NOT obtrusive, they are integrated very well into the laptop. It's supposed to be able to survive 4ft drop and drain 11oz of water spilled over the keyboard, but I'm not going to intentionally test it :) I will just have to take Acer's word on it. Baltery life is astounding for the compact size, over 10 hrs with mixed use. It is light weight and portable, which kind of makes it the to go "laptop" for general use. Excellent choice for students for online classes. It does not have touch screen, but for the price point, you can't complain or expect it at the moment. I wish it had a home button, though since it doesn't have touch screen scrolling. But overall, the Acer - Chromebook 512 – 12” IPS Display - Intel Celeron N4020 - 4GB Memory - 32GB eMMC is a solid performer and would use it daily or have my kids use it and know that it will last, since it is ruggedized. Solid choice!
