Acer comes with a new Chromebook model. We are talking about the new Acer Chromebook R13. This new model is available at the price of 400 dollars.
Probably that the 400 dollars price tag is a little bit too high, but we say that it is perfectly priced for all the features it offers.
Acer Chromebook R13 is a convertible laptop that features a touchscreen and a 360-degree hinge.
Moreover, this hinge will allow people to use the laptop as a tablet as well.
But, the main feature that makes this new laptop stand out is the long-lasting battery life. Other great things are the high number of ports for connecting peripherals and a stylish aluminum lid.
Acer Chromebook R13: 2-In-1 Device Features 13-Hour Killer Battery Life
However, depending on customers’ need, they might also find a more affordable alternative, but we say that the new Acer Chromebook R13 is a really great device.
Having a long lasting battery life on, a 2-in-1 Chromebook is the perfect approach. Customers should also know that Samsung has released a new Chromebook as well, called the Pro model, which costs 100 dollars more.
Samsung’s new model also comes with an included stylus, a high-res hybrid touch screen and runs Google Play Android apps.
Let’s move to the battery life chapter. If people will buy the new Acer Chromebook R13, they will receive a long lasting battery life, which is really useful for a 2-in-1 model.
The company claims that the 13-inch model will deliver approximately 13 hours of usage. This number is well beyond on what people are used to from the Chromebooks market.
As we know, these hybrids usually deliver 8 to 10 hours, which means that the new Acer Chromebook R13 is pretty great. But, there are people who are very happy with the 8 to 10 hours of use.
However, if users need something with a little more juice than that, they should know that the new Acer Chromebook R13 is a good option. This new model also comes with a smooth and stylish aluminum lit that gives it a touch of glass.
People should know that this model is not as lightweight and skinny as HP’s Chromebook newest model, but this doesn’t mean that it looks like a cheap model.
On the left side, people will also find plenty of ports for their connection needs. On the right side, users will see the headphone jack, volume rocker and power button.
The new Acer Chromebook R13 offers a full-size USB 3.0 port, an HDMI port, a USB Type-C port and a MicroSD card slot. Unfortunately, this model doesn’t offer a Thunderbolt 3 support. As for the keyboard, we must say that it is very spacious and the touchpad is very responsive.
A huge minus is that it isn’t a backlight keyboard. As we know, there are plenty of customers who are looking for backlit keys, especially those who are writers, which means that this lack is a deal breaker for them.
In the end we must say that the speakers are located on the left and right edges towards the front of the computer. These speakers are pretty weak, which means that people will have to opt for a good pair of headphones.
