Acer Chromebook 14 spotted on Amazon

Although Chromebooks were considered low-cost portables in their early period, now more and more premium ones show up. The new Acer Chromebook 14 is a big step ahead for Acer, as it delivers a lot for its price, being the first Chrome OS-powered Acer notebook with an all-aluminum chassis, two USB 3.1 ports, as well as an impressive autonomy of up to an amazing 14 hours.

The specs of the Chromebook 14 spotted on Amazon, where it has been listed for pre-order at $299.99 USD (with free shipping), include a dual-core Intel Celeron N3060 processor, a full HD IPS display, 4 GB RAM and 32 GB eMMC internal storage. The connectivity features include WiFi 802.11 a/c, Bluetooth 4.2, HDMI port with HDCP support, as well as an HDR, 88-degree angle 720p webcam.

Because it has a full HD display, the model mentioned above should offer only up to 12 hours of battery life - still more than enough to get one day's work done. Unfortunately, Amazon's product page does not reveal when will the Chromebook 14 become available.
