Review on Renewed Acer R13 13.3in Convertible Chromebook with Touchscreen, Intel Quad-Core Processor, 4GB RAM, 32GB SSD, and Chrome OS by Frank Harwood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Like, except.

There are one or two things about this product that I don't like. The first is the space bar on the keyboard. It feels like there's just a spring-loaded kickstand underneath in the middle. So if I just touch the right edge, the edge falls without the stand falling and no space is added to the document. I get SO MANY typos that I have to go back and fix them. This is bad design. The other is just a little annoying; I bought this refurbished model for a price and the day after it arrived I received an email from Revain advertising what I believe to be the next generation model for less than what I just paid. Well, no one promised that. Also, this device is AMAZING. I run it on beta linux and can't believe I'm running some of my favorite applications on it like IntelliJ.

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
