That doesn’t mean it can’t take advantage of faster processors and more RAM. Performance and battery lifeĪs mentioned in the introduction, Chrome OS doesn’t require high-end specs to provide decent performance. Wireless connectivity includes Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth. Overall, I’d rate the Chromebook Spin 514 as a well-built Chrome OS 2-in-1.Ĭonnectivity is solid, with two USB-C ports, a USB-A port, an (optional) HDMI port, and a 3.5mm audio jack. It does manage to hold the display in place in all four modes - clamshell, tent, media, and tablet. The hinge allows opening the lid with one hand, but it’s a bit loose, with some wobble, while you’re typing. Acer subjects the Chromebook Spin 514 to MIL-STD-810H military-grade durability tests, something you don’t often see in Chromebooks. There’s a tiny bit of bending in the display and flexing in the keyboard deck, but it’s nothing you’ll notice in real-world use. The chassis is all aluminum, and it feels robust for a laptop that’s likely to run less than $1,000, even fully configured. The speaker grills alongside the keyboard give an upscale appearance, but otherwise, there are zero extra adornments. There’s an angle cut into the back of the chassis that adds some flair, the hinges have been redesigned with a notch down the center, and some new vents have appeared along the rear edge - possibly to accommodate the faster CPU.
