Acer Chromebook 315

HP did it with the Chromebook 14 we reviewed in May 2019, and now Acer’s done it with its Chromebook 315 ($ 299.99 as tested): snub Intel silicon for the AMD A4-9120C, a dual-core, 1.6GHz processor with Radeon R4 integrated graphics.

Acer Chromebook 714

Can Chromebooks shed their low-cost, plastic-cased, K-12 classroom stigma and make it in the corporate world?

Acer Predator XB3 (XB273K)

The Acer Predator XB3 ($ 1,299.99) is an ultra-fast, high-refresh G-Sync HDR gaming monitor that attempts to split the difference between two of the company’s other 144Hz 4K models, the premium Predator X27 and the lower-end Nitro XV3. It’s a far better performer than the XV3, and almost matches the screen quality of the much-more-expensive […]
