The Acer Chromebook Plus 514 is a solid all-round Chromebook with nippy performance, good looks and a marvellous port selection. Its display isn’t the best we’ve tested, yet this Chromebook remains a solid choice at a reasonable price.

As budget Chromebooks go, the Acer Chromebook Plus 514 is an appealing "Now with AI" contender, but its lagging performance and minimal feature set offset the low price.
Expert review by : Matthew S. Smith (pcworld.com)
Attractive design for the price ; Enjoyable keyboard ; Lots of connectivity, including USB-C ; 8GB of RAM and spacious 512GB hard drive
Mediocre processor performance ; Display is often too dim ; Weak speakers, webcam ; Small touchpad
