Reviews for the Acer Chromebook Spin 314 CP314-2HN

60% Acer Chromebook Spin 314 (2024) review
Source: Tom's Guide
The Acer Chromebook Spin 314 gets some things right. It delivers all-day performance and charges quickly. With the ability to turn into a tablet, it’s also great for playing mobile games and watching streaming shows. It also offers a good port selection. Despite its virtues, this laptop costs too much for what it offers. The so-so processor and cheap display dampen the experience. For over $100 less, you can get the Acer Chromebook Spin 714. Or, if you don't care about the 2-in-1 feature, the Acer Chromebook 516 GE is a great option that costs roughly the same. Although Chromebooks have a reputation for being budget machines, the Spin 314 is, ultimately, a little too budget for my taste. I recommend buying another Chromebook; after all, other, much better Chromebooks offer 2-in-1 functionality.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

Acer: In 1976, the company was founded in Taiwan under the name Multitech and was renamed Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors, TVs and computer peripherals. Since 2007, the group has merged with Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell, which also market their own laptop product lines.

Acer computers are designed for a variety of purposes, including ultrabooks for mobile use, gaming laptops for gamers, affordable options for everyday tasks, and 2-in-1 convertible laptops for versatility. Acer's product portfolio also includes tablets that offer portable computing and multimedia capabilities.

60%: Such a poor rating is rare. There are only a few notebooks that were rated even worse. The rating websites do not give a purchase recommendation here.
