I bought this two months ago $438. It was like new when I got it the stylist and everything included. I did not like the mouse so I gave it to my son-in-law but other than that it was great. I prefer a Bluetooth mouse and that used the single usb-a slot.
It is lightening fast everything pops up in seconds. It plays games better than my I3 1125g4 did which was fine. I typically have 50 tabs open on two screens no problem. I could add a third one but so far have not.
I have been using it for two months now and no problems at all. It does prefer Bluetooth 5. I had a problem with my old Bluetooth gen 3 the new one with gen 5 works better in many ways. It is the same company just newer with a backlit keyboard. Just got it. It could be all Chromebooks work better with Bluetooth 5.
I highly recommend this if you want a fantastic Chromebook. This is top of the line. It should last for many years. I loved having the stylist on vacation but mostly I use it with a 4K monitor/TV.
I use this instead of Windows. I no longer use Windows at all. This will play android apps I could not get Windows 11 to play. Perhaps it does not have not used Windows for over a year.
This is the best Acer made now. The previous version of it had a better screen but this one is just fine and I love the 16x10 1920 aspect ratio it makes it more compact with very little wasted bezel.

I bought this a few weeks ago for my daughter (refurbished from Acer eBay store) and it is a very solid Chromebook. I have no regrets at all and the unit looked practically brand new.
It did come with a stylus, mouse, and charger. The mouse is garbage but who cares?

It is important for the kids and elder people.
Does anyone know if the keyboard is detachable?

A key factor in buying any chromebook is how long you will receive OS updates for.
You can check how long OS updates will be available any chromebook model here:
https://support.google.
Choose the manufacturer from a list then search in page (ctrl-f) for the model name/number.
This model should receive updates through June 2030.
