Acer Chromebook Spin 314 Convertible Laptop | Intel Pentium Silver N6000 | 14 HD Corning Gorilla Glass Touch Display | 4GB LPDDR4X | 128GB eMMC | Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 | Chrome OS | CP314-1H-P9G7

The first thing I will say is that I am unsure if the solid state drive is can be upgraded but for sure the ram cannot. You are stuck with 4 gb which is MORE than enough for the chromebook in my honest opinion. This Acer laptop overall is an average size laptop and the specification are not bad for chromebook standards. This laptop is relatively thin and not too heavy so it is something you can take on the go with you. It is a decent laptop for a college student for sure. It has (in my opinion) the same standard chromebook processor (pentium). The ram is 4 gb which is standard for a chromebook. It will definitely work for most daily usage. That being said, it is pretty good on battery life. It has been lasting me 8 hours every day (max 10 hours) even after the constant charging it still holds up pretty well. The cooling is good and the fan is not super loud or anything. It is a standard type c charger which can make it easier to replace in the future if needed. The power brick works well and charge pretty quickly. Upon boot up of the acer laptop, the laptop boots up fairly quick considering it is just a standard chromebook. The setup is pretty straight forward and does require a google account in order to complete the setup. The bloatware is not too terrible. The laptop also has only a 14 inch screen with the max resolution at 1366 x 768. The screen is not bad brightness but not the best quality. It still keep the traditional two USB port as well so you do not have to buy an adapter for this laptop while also having the type c (non thunderbolt) port. The laptop can be angled back for better viewing and can go all the way around considering you can use it like a tablet. Although I am not a fan of the keyboard always being in the back. I feel like it could get caught and it will get stuck which is annoying. The laptop surface where the wrist rest is where I do not like the material. It looks nice with the bright silver but with long term use it will fade over time. The keys are okay, but can feel a bit cheap. The external casing of this surface is very easy to scratch (seems to be an issue with all this material) so I would recommend that you get a laptop case for it. The trackpad runs pretty well, It is sensitive and feels smooth to move across. It does show some wear after a few months use if you use it a lot. It leaves that spot eventually. It also does not look like it will wear down easily which is good. There is a camera that will record at at least 720p. You could put a web cam cover on it. The dual microphone makes for a very clear voice and I have not had any issues with any sound issues. It usually does not pick up too much surrounding noise and focuses more on voice. On laptop, there is a 3.5 port to plug in headphones/microphone. It does have dual band wifi built in and no issues with speed/connection. Best thing to do is just balance the resource as best you can. The overall charge time depends but it can take up to three hours to charge the laptop to 100% from what I can tell. It is not too long and the charger does get hot so handle with care. It has a decent boot up being less than fifteen seconds to boot up but the bloatware has to go so I would recommend you uninstall that if possible. The speaker system is okay but honestly not top of the line. The processing speed is not and it works for what I need. There is an HDMI port so you are able to connect this to an external screen. I am unsure if there is a dock that is meant for this laptop. Overall this laptop is works for your basic every day use. I am unsure if you can install linux on it but chrome works just fine on this. You get a smaller screen but it is perfect for every day use. The acer laptop does not run too hot (slightly warm) and the battery life is not bad. The specification is not bad at 4 GB ram and 128 gb SSD drive. The space is decent for what I need it for. The hinge is not bad and the touch screen is good. I am just not a fan of the keyboard being on the back as it is a little cheap feeling and if gets caught on anything it might break off.

This Chromebook is loaded with good stuff, and beats the Google GO hands down. The I-5 processor and 8GB of memory and 128 GB of SSD put it up with the best Windows laptops. It has the lighted and very comfortable keyboard, touchscreen with stylus (built in), and great battery life. The added feature is the screen - it is an inch taller than the normal 13.5 screen which lets you get a more of what you are working on or watching up in view. And the screen resolution is beyond Full HD.

This 14 Acer Flip Chromebook is my second Acer of five laptops. And by far the best. However, I learned today that Chrome;s purported security is a sham. And it will cost about $150 to rid it of SPAM. I clicked on a legitimate repair site to get instructions on how to remove an undercabinet microwave, and the malware attacked, Now, not only am I out the cost to clean but also the cost of a security program I highly recommend this computer. I also highly recommend you purchase security.

Nice laptop but the screen glitches a lot when playing a game like Roblox. It seems like we got a defective unit as others dont seem to have this problem playing roblox on this.

I have been looking for a good chromebook for a few months. This one has everything and more. The stylus is an awesome an addition. It loads super fast and the battery life is fantastic! Flips easily into a tablet. Syncs easily with my Samsung S10. Amazing.

Everything runs smoothly

I wanted to get a feel for everything a Chromebook was capable of and how good an experience it could be, so I went looking for one with a broad feature set, generous configuration, and was of high quality.

Fairly light for its size, high-quality, great screen, touch-pad and keyboard.

Screen: Excellent: bright with vivid colors. The 3:2 aspect ratio gives you a lot more screen area than most 13 laptops.

Before I begin, you should be aware of what ChromeOS can and cannot do before buying any chromeOS device. This Acer computer definitely feels premium. The MicroSD card slot is certainly useful especially when switching user where you can still access files stored on the SD Card compare to the Pixelbook. If you do see a good sale on this laptop, its certainly worth it as the i5 has more than enough power for handling lots of tabs (at least 12 tabs or so with lots of multimedia on the website). Specs is confirmed as: i5 CPU, 128GB of storage and 8GB of ram.
