Review on Acer Chromebook CB514 1H C47X Celeron Keyboard by Daniel Drury

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simply stunning the best of traditional laptops

I've had mine for about two months now and it's been working fine for about a week. He gradually comes to utter uselessness. The audio just randomly stops working, I can pause the video and then hit the play button and the audio completely disappears, otherwise it'll do this crazy distorted creaking. I have to restart my computer to get the sound working again until it stops working again. The browser is too slow or doesn't work at all. I can click on the bookmarks tab and it just goes back and forth and won't connect. Checking my internet signal strength always shows excellent. I called Acer tech support twice yesterday and they got me to do a few troubleshooting steps to no avail and want me to send it back for repair. I use my computer every day and I don't want to send it in for repairs. I'm about to throw it in the trash and just buy a working Chromebook. I had an old Dell Chromebook that ran like a top for about 6 years, not a single minute of issues and very fast, and I also don't load or save any Chrome apps, just surf the web and watch videos.

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Annoying
