ACER CHROMEBOOK SPIN 514
The benefits of Chromebooks are now well established: these lightweight laptops are essentially windows onto the web, so you never need to worry about keeping your stuff backed up. Sign in with a Google account, and you’re instantly up and running. With the Spin 514, Acer builds on that foundation rather well, with a 360-degree hinge on the screen that means you can fold it right over and use the device as a makeshift tablet.
Fold it half the way back and you can prop it up in tent mode – handy for watching videos or making video calls. It’s an eminently flexible and versatile piece of hardware, available at a very reasonable price.
