I had Acer Spin 13 and Acer Spin 713. So I'll answer the first question. Was it worth it? Probably not for me as I live in Mexico and pay shipping and taxes but like most of us I spend a lot of time at home and I wanted to. I've read every Spin 713 review I could find and I've watched every YouTube video. None of the Spin 713's "weak points" are my concern. The speakers aren't concert quality, but I can hear them well enough that I'm still sending audio through my Google Home Mini at home. That and I'm legally deaf. One reviewer referred to "sagging" on the screen, which I think he meant when holding the laptop to the screen. I've never done this, still not, and the screen is fine. For me, the keyboard on the Spin 713 is noticeably better than the Spin 13, and I got along well with the Spin 13. 713 is better. I also like the large trackpad, although I'm not a trackpad fanatic. The Spin 713 fits my laptop stand better than the Spin 13. I can open and close it without moving it off the bumpers. I mentioned I'm deaf so I never heard the fans, but some reviewers who can hear said they didn't hear them either. The screen is the same as the Spin 13 as far as I can tell and I think it's great. I prefer the 3:2 configuration. I'll write more later when I've used it more. LATER I've been using the Spin 713 for almost two weeks now and I love it. I have no complaints and I like the keyboard and trackpad better than my Spin 13. I like the shape better because I can close it while it's on the laptop stand without lifting it, allowing the lid to hold the bracket in the lower part releases. Frame.
