The Acer Chromebook 14 for Work brings enterprise hardware to the low-end Chromebook market. Acer carries a positive image among Chromebook fans thanks to the excellent Acer Chromebook C720 that remained our favorite small-sized Chromebook even a year or two after it came out. Can this larger Acer Chromebook 14 for Work match the success of earlier models? Some Chromebook buyers want a more powerful system, but they don’t want to pay the premium price for a Google Chromebook Pixel, which costs over $1,000. So, the other manufacturers started putting out more powerful systems in the $400-$700 price range with faster processors, more memory, higher resolution screens and better hardware design. The Acer Chromebook 14 for Work fits that sector of the Chromebook market. We’ll see if it can deliver. As the name implies, Acer designed the Acer Chromebook 14 for Work as an enterprise or institutional machine. However, anyone who needs more than a basic or budget Chromebook with a slightly larger screen should take a close look at the Acer Chromebook 14 for Work, even if you’re not a business user. The computer will fit well in a student’s dorm room as their primary laptop given some caveats. Students or home users who don’t mind using Google Docs or Office 365’s Mobile web apps for work and online games and entertainment can enjoy a Chromebook as their primary computer. Home users will enjoy it for streaming entertainment on the Internet and for doing some research for school. Users can open lots of tabs without fear of sluggishness, something not possible on a system with only 2GB of RAM. The Acer Chromebook 14 for Work costs a little more than the average 11-inch to 13-inch Chromebook coming in around $250-$350. Our review unit retails for $499. Buyers can pay as much as $750 or as little as $350. What do you get for those prices? Here’s a look at the four primary models Acer sells. CP5-471-581N – $749.99: Core i5 6200U processor, FHD (1920 x 1080) display, 8GB RAM, 32GB storage CP5-471-312N – $599.99: Core i3 6100U processor, FHD

Back when Chrome OS first started getting popular, the Acer C720 Chromebook quickly emerged as one of the best options. Last month, though, that popular Chromebook got its last update. Now that the Acer C720 Chromebook is dead, let’s take a quick look at what that means for those who still own it, and what the best models are for replacement.Acer C720 Chromebook isn’t getting updates — why?One thing that’s not often focused on with Chromebooks is that, eventually, Google will pull the plug on updates. However, that takes quite a while, and it’s detailed well in advance. Google provides automatic updates for 6.5 years after a hardware platform is released, and in June 2019, the Acer C720 Chromebook’s EOL date hit.If you’re an Acer C720 owner, you might have caught a notification recently that the most recent update was the last one the machine will get. It’s a shame, as for many users, the aging hardware has kept up quite well. It’s also a source of nostalgia for some. Here on the 9to5Google team, the C720 was my second Chromebook and a beloved memory, and it was Abner Li’s first Chromebook purchase as well.My trusty old Acer C720 in its Toast skinLuckily, this change doesn’t necessarily mean C720 owners have to stop using the machine.
