    Smaller screen than I am used to. Starts up quickly. Doesn't have a "delete" key. So you have to position your cursor and use the "backspace" key. I replaced a larger-screened Chromebook. I do like that I can install apps on the Chromebook.

    I do like this Acer Chromebook. It is really nice to work with. The one flaw I have found is the speakers are terrible. I have to pair a bluetooth speaker to hear anything and even with the volume all the way up it is still not very loud.

    When is works, it's a good basic Chromebook. But everytime I use it, it freezes for a minute. It's easier and faster to reboot multiple times per day than wait for it to stop freezing.

    hard getting used to the offset keyboard due to number pad on right side. No guest function that I can find. It's windows again, not a chromebook. And battery has very short run life, until needing to recharge.

    A fine machine - except the tint on the display

    works well, reasonably quick, excellent construction. Set up, updates, adding apps also went well. But all isn't perfect. Backlit keys are not very bright - even at maximum. And it suffers from the chronic chromebook flaw of a greenish / reddish tint to any white screen. This is due to a default toning down of the blue as it is supposed to affect users - especially at night. And, I have never been able to find any workaround. This may not bother most users, but will have an effect on photos, movies, etc. For me, white areas should be white - or at least, add controls to set color levels or ICC display profile.
