which was an excellent unit. Up front

I purchased this as a replacement for my aging Toshiba Chromebook, which was an excellent unit.Up front, I am sold on Chromebooks. Being 30 years in software, the Chromebooks make all kinds of sense and are a joy to use. The Acer for Work is pretty. More importantly, it is noticeably faster than the Toshiba was and it keeps that excellent performance as you open tabs and load up the machine. The bigger screen is a huge plus for me and that also translates into a better keyboard experience as well. A little more key spacing and larger trackpad area is a great addition. All in all a great purchase. While it was a bit more money than the Toshiba (about $250 a few years ago) the performance is really worth it.The USB3 charger is great and appears to be very sturdy. The glass top is handsome but was not a factor in my purchase decision. I wanted performance and scalability. The Acer is a home run in these areas.

Bought this for use of my main computer after I became tired of the constant slow updates and the maintenance of my windows laptop. With this I get what I want to do instantly. I did take a chance on this Chromebook. I bought an Acer about four years ago but the screen was too dim, maybe due to the matte screen. This one is plenty bright enough and looks nice. I found out the the screen is rated at 246 nits brightness compared to the 212 nits on the regular Acer Chromebook 14. The i3 processor is lightening fast. They actually sell higher priced versions of this computer with i5 and i7 processors. That would be major overkill. Love the backlit keyboard, but the keyboard itself is nothing special. I do wish they used capital letters on the keys.Upon initial startup this Chromebook will immediately update and install the Google Play store. Most apps work well on this computer.

This has worked great as a no-frills travel laptop. It took a minute to figure out VPN and Remote Desktop compatibility, but once I did it was perfect. Even my IT department still claims that ChromeBooks are incompatible with our software but I?ve had it working for months.The best part is that it?s shock & water resistant, so I don?t have to worry about my drooling baby messing around with it.
