The sandblasted, anodized aluminum shell feels smooth and solid in the hand. The Spin 514 feels big to me after spending the last two months on an 11.6-inch Chromebook, but even at 4.25 pounds, it's not too heavy to carry from room to room or rest in my lap as I work. Acer delivered one of the Best Chromebooks of 2020 in the Acer Chromebook Spin 713 - a Project Athena Chromebook that was actually built to get work done instead of just look thin and pretty - and now it's back with the Acer Chromebook Spin 514 and the Acer Chromebook Enterprise Spin 514, and even after less than 24 hours, I think this Chromebook is going to make waves this year.ĪMD Ryzen 3000 C-Series Mobile Processors

The Acer Chromebook Enterprise Spin 514 will include an HDMI port, a protective sleeve and a mouse.ĬES 2021 is off to a good start for Chromebook fans, with Samsung showing off the Galaxy Chromebook 2 as a more affordable, more reasonable version of last year's $1000 4K beauty, but Samsung isn't the only manufacturer showing off the new hotness today.

There will be three colors available: Pure Sliver, Steel Gray and Mist Green.

In addition to up to 128GB eMMC internal storage, there's also a slot for an M.2 SSD, something seldom seen in Chromebooks.

The Acer Chromebook Spin 514 starts at $479 and the Enterprise Spin 14 starts at $749.

Acer is debuting a Ryzen-powered 14-inch 2-in-1 Chromebook at CES 2021.
