Acer Chromebook 514, CB514-1HT-C6EV, Intel Celeron N3450, 14" Full HD Touch Display, 4GB LPDDR4, 64GB eMMC, Backlit Keyboard, Google Chrome

Very happy with this seller. Stated like-new condition and it certainly was. Even packaged like new and couldn't tell the difference from new.

I have only had this Acer Chromebook for 2 days, (it's my first chromebook), but the set up took maybe 4 mins. So far I think it will fit my needs, checking emails and surfing the net, and of course ordering from Amazon. It is a more expensive Chromebook, but I wanted a lighted keyboard. I still have Windows 7 on my Dell Inspiron, support will expire Jan 2020. I am sick and tired of Windows, it's crummy updates , etc. Decided for the cost of a Chromebook being at least half the expense of a new laptop, would give it a try. Google Cloud Printing after research may be challenging to set up, but I really don't use the printer a lot, so I will see if I can do without one. Will give update after using Acer 514 Chromebook for several months.Update: One month into using Acer 514. I am very pleased with this chromebook. It is fast and battery life is 11.5 hrs up to 12 hrs. The Gorilla Glass Trackpad is responsive and smooth. I like the 'night light mode' that I have automatically set up, it really reduces glare and strain on the eyes at night. Took a little time to get used to Chrome OS system; but I will NEVER go back to Windows again. The Touch Screen is also smooth. Over all, for my first Chromebook , I am completely satisfied. Still have not invested in a Cloud Print compatible printer...but I really don't need to print very often.1/2021 Still loving my Chromebook. Have had absolutely no problems at all. Supports all of my needs1/2022 Became unpredictable, would just shut down, black screen, also, if I moved the Chromebook , the screen sometimes went black. I powerwashed it twice, and it still continued. So I ended up donating to a school, they still wanted it even with the unpredictability. I was hoping to get more than 3 yr out of it tho.

This work very well for what I needed it for. Well made and no problems with the software.

I went the Chromebook route on the advice of a friend who’s a software engineer. He uses Chromebooks for work all the time writing complex programs for businesses.I decided to begin migrating out of the Apple universe, and CB-514-C7 model was my first purchase. I couldn’t be happier. It performs fabulously for everyday web surfing, movies and TV, email, the usual stuff...The keyboard feels very good with just the right amount of key travel depth. A 14” touchscreen in what is essentially an 12”body is a real space- and weight-saver.I’m routinely getting in excess of 10-11 hours of battery life with the brightness at about 75%, 12+ hours at a dimmer setting (for the backlit keyboard as well; there are five levels for that) is a reasonable expectation.I’ve had this Chromebook for about a month, and have absolutely no complaints.

I've had the Acer Chromebook 514 for about two weeks now, and I am totally pleased with it! After reading about this model at the beginning of the year, I kept watching for it to become available. I was most interested in the backlit keyboard which is such a convenient feature, but I am also finding that I am using the touchscreen feature more than I thought I would. I have been a fan of Acer chromebooks for the past six years, partly because I love the non-glare screens that so many of the models offer. Also, the battery life is great and there is no heat factor that you encounter in so many laptops! Everything about the device works perfectly, and I am expecting many years of use from it based on my previous experiences with Acer chromebooks!

I don't think any Chromebook at this price point can beat this computer. I've used Chromebooks from HP, Lenovo, Asus and another Acer model. For me, I look for the following: lightweight, speedy response to my activity, long battery life, touch screen, bright screen and backlit keyboard. The Asus Flip c302 had all of these too. However, it cost much more! I also really like the size and ratio of this 14 inch screen. For $300, this does not have the build quality of my Surface Book but I did not expect it to. It is a fun computer to use and I will probably use it as much or more than my Surface Book.

I purchased 3 other chromebooks (around this price point and size) before I purchased this one and this is THE BEST by far! Quiet, easy to type keyboard, screen is bright and clear, trackpad is like a Mac's, sturdy construction. The sound is as good as it gets in a Chromebook released in 2019. (Without having a 15 inch or larger Chromebook with speakers on both sides of the keyboard.) There are dual speakers on the bottom and the sound is pretty good. I hope all manufacturers improve the speakers in future Chromebooks. (Take a queue from the 2015 Toshiba chromebook with Skullcandy speakers.)
