Spin 514 is on the price of the Chromebook, but their design feels perfect for the premium, and I’m impressed with its quality quality. There is zero give its cover when I push down in the center. Its hinge falls slowly when I’m ready or pull its screen, but we hold too much and not decrease when i put the display around the tent mode. SPIN 514 cover can be around 360 full degrees to place down in tablet mode, too.

Spin 514 is a MIL-Grade-STD810h of STD810H, which means that it is tested for the extreme stability. The Acer says that it can survive four-foot drops and open / open cycles, what I say: let’s get YouTube technology – this time.
Aesthetically, spin 514 is an attractive laptop that has just been enough enough to taste. It has a light-colored aluminum fleeting in its hinges and external edges of its maximum cover, accompanied by the “Acer” logo into the cover. Platinum Silver completes fingerprints easily picked up fingers, however.
Spin 514 key coverage is made of Matte plastic, but they do not feel cheaper and comply with all chassis for sharp appearance. I had to hold it until my eyeballs even realized that it is different.

The upper 514 spin bezels are high and low is a little color, but the touch screen itself is good and responding. My review unit did not come with stylus, so I did all my investigations and with a finger. Great achieves the fact that it has 120hz renewal rate, making a Appal Match along with a few instant quick scenes on YouTube videos look smooth. .
The text and details of the blurry in my 514 spin, so without trying another $ 100 to expand the high-quality $ 100. Possibly Think of improvements if you need more for four gigs of RAM, but 12GB already has Chromebook (and as well as $ 700).
My spin 514 screen is measured with 300 nets light, so I used to use all the way to the max. Pricier model display provides 340 nits, which is neglected.

The Spin 514 keyboard is correct, a large part – the snappy, and properly postponed – but only a few posts space and reduces the domain and fingerprint. Also, both are found in Priser’s configuration.
Special note, there are dedicated launcher keys (first menu (install “quick” tool. This latest we shared local CAPS lock.
The keyboard was made with Acer’s “Oceglass”. The tied plastic plastic in the sea, but they feel like glass like glasses: soft and smooth as velvet. Acer says it is preventing the resistance of moisture, so leaners of danger coffee may not be a panic.

Spin 514 has increased rising speakers fall down both sides of its keyboard. They are small, but they are not the best laptop speakers I have ever tried (and there are some perfect stickiners out there). I was listening to Fleetwood Mac’s 1997 Live work “Silver springs” about every few hours ago for a few weeks while reading the piano; In Spin 514, the sound loses the bass and deep but clearly clearly. Speakers prevent them from being heard in attack.

Examining Wise Teams, I pulled five tabs on the same subject (horseback riding near me) and three tabs related to one Chrome window. When I press the F4 key, the bubble appears in the lower left corner, moves me to organize the title called “Chicago Horse Riding Information” on “Desk”. “Clicking this button dragged all the tabs related to horse-ridden tabs in a separate workplace while storing other tabs on my table.

Smart Grouding and the Gallery app setup of the Gallery app is still “testing” (Beta) and may improve on time.
Battery life
I have never launched the battery life test in spin 514 yet, but Acer is limited for 17 hours of web browsing per case. If it lives on that number, that will put it well over nine hours waiting to decrease in Chromabets.
Who should have Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514?

Credit: Haley Henenschel / Mashable
Based on my few hours with spin 514 so far, I think it’s the best pick of Ai Adometers, but anyone who wants a solid 2-in-1 laptop with the right price for the price. Its primary rival is clearly Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14, which provides a bright (non-affecting point), quad speakers with Dolby Atmos, along with a $ 649.99 cheap keyboard. However, it starts with a part of the storage and cannot double the tablet.
Spin 514 battery will be a big deal to decide on my last analysis, so stay to watch.
Update: Sep 4, 2025, 1:05 PM EDT Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 (CP514-5hhn) are now alive. Acer has improved model to $ 749.99, but it actually reduces $ 799.99 on its website. Revive the matter properly.
