Title: My son loves it!
Review: I waited to make a review about this product, because I wanted to see what my son thought. He uses it for daily activities in school and home. He stated it's very light weight and the screen size is perfect for him. Now, he has been having issues with it freezing up or connecting to the internet at a few place recently, but says still is good. He loves the design as well.

Title: Few i/o ports
Review: On first use the keys required a heavy push to work. I thought 'Oh, oh," but after a couple of key strokes each they became fine. The only i/o ports are one each USB-C, USB-A and a mic/headset one. All on the left side. So plan on getting a hub if you use a lot of peripherals. Over all this Chromebook is everything I need - sitting on my lap surfing the web.

Title: Product good, inner packaging bad . . .
Review: I knocked off one star because the inner box containing the Chromebook had large stains on it that appeared to be grease stains, as if the person who boxed it into the outer mailing box was eating a hamburger while doing the packaging. However, I have set up the Chromebook and don't see any problems, so I think the stains were unrelated to the actual product. I took a couple of photos of the inner Acer box in case problems arise in the next few weeks and I'm worried the product was affected. Thankfully, I did buy the protection plan.On to the Chromebook. I had one some years ago and decided to replace my old "won't update to Windows 11" laptop with another Chromebook since I'm not a gamer and my computer needs aren't that complex. It set up quickly and easily and although I haven't had time to work with it much yet I believe it will be exactly what I need. I'm very satisfied with the actual product I purchased.

Title: Love ACER Chromebooks
Review: I was searching for a new laptop many years ago. A smart young associate at a big box store asked me what I use my laptop for. After explaining he told me I should get a Chromebook. He also recommended ACER. I never heard of that brand but he insisted it was the best. I bought it and never looked back. No regrets and I've bought Acer Chromebooks since then. I recommend them to all family members even the Apple snobs. I have 2 now. I bought this as a backup and one I can take places. I like the touchscreen but don't use it much. I also love that it's straight out of the box. Good to go if you already have a Google account. Or you can set a new one up for this laptop if you want it completely separate and don't want all your docs and favorites carried over. Will stick with ACER for EVER!
