Reviews for the Acer Chromebook Spin 514 CP514-2H-56QM

Acer Chromebook Spin 514 hands-on preview: Full of surprises
Source: Laptop Mag English
Acer's new Chromebook Spin 514 feels like a winner. It has a mostly aluminum design backed by a MIL-STD certification, a decent 14-inch display, a great keyboard and a 1080p webcam that takes shockingly good photos and videos. The laptop is thin enough to take on the road, and its 2-in-1 design gives the flexibility folks desire in a Chromebook. I do have a few worries as we near its official launch. Chief among those is pricing. At $699, the Chromebook Spin 514 isn't exactly a budget option in the realm of Chromebooks. And that model likely comes with a Core i3 CPU. It'll be interesting to see how much this particular unit costs because it's the config I'd personally choose. My only other worry is battery life, which is rated at 10 hours. If it hits that mark, then all is well. If it drops below 10 hours, then it opens the door to other competitors. Despite those potential downsides, the Acer Chromebook Spin 514 is shaping up to be a compelling mid-range Chromebook for those who need a 2-in-1 laptop.

90% Acer Chromebook Spin 514 (2H) review: Faster, better, and much pricier
Source: Android Central English
Despite my complaints about the pricing, the Acer Chromebook Spin 514 is a darn good laptop. It's got nice, smooth performance, even when I had two windows and about 20 tabs open at a time — plus an Android app, because Freecell helps my brain stretch after hours of writing. The up-facing speakers mean you can hear your music or Netflix episode even when curled up on the couch, and the display's good enough to binge on. This laptop would be the perfect couch companion — if it weren't $700. Once this laptop goes on sale in North America next year, give it a month or two for the sales to come in. Once this hits $550 or below, the price will match the value, and once it's in your hands, it should be a great Chromebook to last you for years to come. If you need one right now, though, you'll want to head over to our best Chromebooks for something you can buy right now.

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.


90%: There are not very many models that are rated better. Most of the assessments are in percentage ranges below that. The tested product is not considered perfect, but the sources give a clear purchase recommendation.
