    Love the chromebook! Only issue I'm having with it is every so often the audio will completely go out and the only way to restore the audio is restarting the chromebook! Waiting to see if this is going to continue or not. Hope it stops!

    I been shopping around for awhile for a new Chromebook to replace my older one. I wanted certain specs that I found on this Acer. Im a casual gamer which is a bonus with this Chromebook. It's fast, great display and built solid. I highly recommend, you won't be sorry

    Love this laptop. It is exactly what I needed and likely much more. I am not a gamer, but the screen and speed of this makes everything else much easier.

    Solid laptop, very responsive and loads webpages and programs quickly. Especially for a Chromebook. Cloud gaming works well as long as they aren't games from 2023.

    It was good for the price but I ended up returning it because I am not used to the OS and it was not as gaming friendly as advertised. I ended up getting an MSI

    it works great, however at first I had audio issues where the sound would disappear, or just a lot of static. I actually returned it to get another one to see if it was just a bad laptop. Same issues but this time I factory restarted it and no issues since then.
