Review on Acer Chromebook CP713 1WN 53NF Convertible Touchscreen by Michael Cooper

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Happy with the purchase in general

Purchased on Cyber Monday. I used to have an HP Chromebook 14 and wanted a different Chromebook. The screen is really good but has fairly large bezels (that white space is also noticeable above the keyboard). Overall, it's slightly larger/heavier than you'd expect from a 13.5-inch laptop. The speakers sound pretty good, but they're on the underside so they get distorted at times. The battery is good so far. Performance is solid, but the fan on the bottom can make noise if you're doing anything other than normal browsing. I was playing the game (Helix Jump) and it froze intermittently, but performance was stable for the most part. The keyboard is good, but the odd bright spots when the keyboard backlight is on are definitely noticeable - although they don't really bother me. The stylus is pretty neat, but it can ONLY be removed at a certain angle (tablet mode), so be careful when trying to remove it. The bezel separating the screen from the keyboard is very narrow and sometimes difficult to open. Hopefully this leads to a more informed purchase.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Small things
