Review: Acer Chromebook R11 – Convertible, affordable, portable

Chromebooks are relatively new in the world of computing offerings. Still just a few years old, they have been offered by Google as an alternative to Windows PCs as well[...]

The Acer Chromebook R11 is the best of Chrome OS on offer. It is cheap, portable, offers decent specs, and has a great battery life.

Acer Chromebook R11 review

This convertible Chromebook-tablet hybrid made us flip out

Lengthy battery life; Reasonably bright screen; Comfortable keyboard

Laggy touchscreen and touchpad; Buggy Chrome OS build

Cheap and cheerful cloud computing on the go, although the tablet mode and input devices on this Chromebook need work

Acer Chromebook R11 ( C738T-C5R6)

The Acer Chromebook R 11 makes the most of an unexciting situation. With a base price of $279 (that's about £195 or AU$395), it's a budget-priced lightweight device with a touchscreen display and 360-degree hinge that folds all the way back to form a...

Acer's Chromebook R 11 is an inexpensive tablet-laptop hybrid, coupling the simplicity of Google's Chrome OS with a 360-degree hinge and touchscreen.

Unfortunately, Chrome OS isn't optimized for touch, and navigating around the browser with your finger can be tricky. There aren't as many apps available for Google's Chrome OS as you'll find on Microsoft's Windows or Apple's OS X.

Acer's Chromebook R 11 has a neat hybrid design and the price is right, but simpler, non-touch devices offer better value.

Acer Chromebook R11 review: Extraordinary value and features

Chromebooks have come a long way and with the addition of Android apps, the Acer Chromebook R11 is very worth considering.

Solid build quality, nice and responsive screen, ChromeOS is maturing and can run Android apps.

The white color could get dirty easier.

If you’re looking for a Chromebook in this price range, or even one up to $400, the Acer Chromebook R11 is a solid choice and is one of the first to run Android apps in the stable channel as well.

Very Good value machine

"Excellent performance, versatile. My only gripe is the difficulty in setting up chrome for Children using the Google family app. Very fiddly and no ability to give Children controlled access to Google play apps"
