97% Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 review: This 2-in-1 multitasks like a pro
Source: PC World
The Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 does a stellar job of mixing the practical stuff with a bit of polish. It feels sturdier than you’d expect, and both the screen and speakers punch way above what most midrange Chromebooks usually offer. The AI features? Cool but unnecessary. And when you put it up against Lenovo’s Chromebook Plus 14, both of which are running the same Kompanio Ultra 910 chip, the Acer simply feels like the snappier, more versatile option. Lenovo can do the basic stuff just fine, but Acer gives you more wiggle room if you’re more of a multitasker.

80% Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 review: This 2-in-1 nearly nails it

The Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 is a well-made convertible laptop–that much I cannot deny. The laptop folds easily (as it should!) and it’s fairly comfortable to use in either landscape or portrait orientations. It’s also a long-lasting laptop (as long as the brightness is turned down) and the display bezels are barely there, so you’re getting a lot of screen. That said, at full price ($549.99), it’s expensive, especially for an entry-level configuration with just 8GB of RAM and 128GB of flash storage. Personally? I’d wait for a drop in price.

70% Review: The Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 is a future-proofed laptop worthy of homework and beyond

The Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 is in an interesting position, price-wise. At over $500 (you can sometimes find it on sale for the mid-$400 range), it's not cheap. Luckily, the performance is worth the sale price tag. Build-quality-wise, you can spend a little more and get something that feels better with the Asus CX54 Chromebook Plus. You could also consider Samsung's Galaxy Chromebook, which recently earned our AP Editor's Choice award. Then, there are many options for Chromebooks in the $200 range on Amazon, specifically from HP and Lenovo, which might be ideal if it's only used for homework. However, if you're sharing the workstation, the extra power, RAM, and storage space is probably worth it here, despite the clunky plastic build quality — which isn't a deal-breaker.
