Acer Chromebook C720

got a acer chromebook ok when I first got it but after a year things stared to go wrong black little marks on the screen then screen went black but did go then went to update it never came back on contacted acer not interested if you look at reviews on chromebooks there all have the same thing going wrong with them RUBBISH ACER

The Acer C720 is a slim light 'laptop'. It runs on the Chorme os. Its very portable but does require wifi but thats no problem when you can create a hot spot from my phone. For browsing the web its blisteringly fast. I have an ageing laptop that i can work from when i need to, but for web browsing and catchup TV its not so good. So I decided not to go down the road of a new laptop running windows or the too expensive Apple products, I did some 'homework' and decided on the Acer chromebook C720. For the price of £200 I think its amazing. It's very light has great battery life. It boots up in just a few seconds and scans as it starts for any changes to its os for malware/virus.

I'm real pleased with my purchase, it does all I wanted and some.

Then to my surprise I found out about Chromecast so i now have a great 'Smart TV' for £230, so catchup TV and films are just a few clicks away. There are apps to download and i guess there will be more coming along, so for browsing, checking e-mail and working in google docs I'm very happy to have spent so little and got a lot for my money.

It's not a replacement for a laptop/desktop but in addition to those and my android phone its fits well in my life and has made me smile.
