Perfect for our transition to homeschooling
This is similar to what my daughter was using in school, so it’s made the transition to online homeschooling very easy. It’s compact and easy to take anywhere. It doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles, which is what we wanted, and the battery lasts a LONG time once charged. It isn’t used for much else besides online school and additional web browsing for research or school related activities, but it works great so far. It is fast, responsive, and easy to set up. We have had no technical hiccups whatsoever and it has worked well every day so far without a hitch, so we are very pleased. I think it’s a perfect Chromebook for homeschooling.

Update in review…Just what I needed, easy to navigated!
Update: after using a few months, there is a common âglitchâ watching movies/shows. The Chromebook picture will start to jump/wiggle a bit and then get stuck. (Think old school like a record skipping)I have to hit the power and refresh button to unstick it to reboot. It does this almost daily. Kind of annoying.End of updateâ¢â¢â¢I am not a tech person, and I have never had a laptop before. I broke my leg and ankle and have been bed bound. Also friends want to do zoom and I only have my iPhone which isnât the best for zoom. I decided I needed a laptop to use as I heal and recover. Not having any experience I had no idea what to get, I knew I wanted something that was also a touchscreen. It had to be easy to use. I did some research and hadnât planned on getting a chromebook. But I read the reviews for this Acer chromebook and the price was good for my budget. When I got it, I was happy to find that it is easy for me to navigate. I quickly set it up with Netflix and Amazon Prime, the picture quality for watching shows and movies was great. Perfect size for me while Iâm stuck recovering in bed and canât watch tv in the living room. Zoom is so much easier now with this versus my phone screen. I like the game apps and itâs made being bedridden a lot more bearable. And once I am recovered, it will still be a nice addition for me with how easy it to use the keyboard or flip to use the touchscreen.As someone who doesnât do well with computers, I found this to be very easy to use with a nice picture.The sound seems to come from the bottom of the Chromebook, so it isnât super loud. Which is for me another plus. Iâm sound sensitive so I turn on the closed captions on my TV when I watch it, so I have done the same with the Chromebook. Very happy with my purchase.

Alright for the price, but has many issues with SD card
[Update 6/26/2022 to lower rating to 1 star]:I have been using this for 13 months now. The Chromebook still consistentlyrestarts by itself every few days after I close the lid to put it in sleep mode, thus wasting time booting up when I try to continue reading the next day. Chrome OS has forced automatic updates which I didn’t think too much of before, but the last 2 updates broke compatibility with the SD card in all apps. This includes Google’s official “Files” app from the Play store, published by Google themselves, the same company who makes the operating system. This has wasted 4 or 5 frusting hours at night when I want to kick back and relax by reading a bit since I have to debug why I can’t get any apps to read from my SD card even though it was working perfectly fine the previous day before the Chromebook restarted by itself and updated itself even though I don’t want it to. I am currently trying to debug the SD card not working for the second time this month now and I am just tired of this garbage. If you just want a Chromebook to browse the web, this is good. But try to use it for anything else or try to use an SD card with it, and I do not recommend trying this. Stick with an Android tablet from a good brand or an iPad. It is a shame because the hardware from Acer seems good, but the operating system is just garbage and there is no way I can give this anything higher than 1/5 when it can’t even do the most basic of tasks to just open image files from a SD card.[Original review for 3 stars]:I only bought this to mainly use as a tablet for reading. I download a lot of content for offline reading so I use a SD card, but the chromebook seems to have issues when leaving the SD card in it. When I wake it from sleep, it will show a warning saying I shouldn’t remove the SD card without safely ejecting it first, but the SD card is still inserted and was never removed (I live alone so noone else would have touched it). No data can be read from the SD card at this point and I have to take it out and put it back in. I thought it was a bad SD card at first and tried another SD card but it had the same issue. After some googling it turns out other people had the same issue. This makes using this chromebook a lot more annoying since I have to remove and reinsert the SD card every time I want to use it.The chromebook also randomly reboots when I open it up, although it happens pretty rarely (maybe once or twice a month). The battery percent is still always higher than 30% after booting up, so it didn’t run out of battery. I assume this might be related to leaving the SD card inserted, but I don’t want to take out the card since micro SD cards are very easy to lose.Overall using the chromebook is good – things load pretty fast and the touchscreen isn’t super responsive but is fine for the price point. However, I bought this purely for using with a SD card so these issues make it much more annoying for me to use.

I ordered the laptop for work and for practising digital art. i drew the picture with hand. And still could get the best of it. So far it is working wonderfully. Battery life is 10h even while working and painting. Touch activity is smooth and not lagging.
