Acer Chromebook 15

FAVORING LONGEVITY OVER BEEFY SPECS.

WITH ITS PRISTINE build quality that rivals even a MacBook, it’s easy to look past the Acer Chromebook 15’s aversion to 2-in-1 form factors. However, given that most Chromebooks releasing this year are fully convertible, thanks to the wide adoption of Android app support, the Acer Chromebook 15 had to prove itself to us with more than just a nice aesthetic. So, beyond its ability to lay flat using a 180-degree hinge, this 15-inch beauty makes great strides with its battery life as well, lasting almost 17 hours in our own TechRadar battery life test.

Fantastic battery life, solid construction and a gorgeous exterior make up for a low performance ceiling in Acer’s 15-inch Chromebook for the masses. When compared to the best Chromebooks out there, this is an excellent value.
