The editors liked
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
Convertible
Attractively minimalist
Good battery life
The laptop has excellent battery life lasting just over nine hours in our video playback tests
There is a HDMI port which means you can connect the laptop to your TV and show the laptop's screen at a bigger size
The laptop can be used in traditional mod
The editors didn't like
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
Terrible trackpad
HD
Only screen
There are only two USB ports and they're not USB 3.0
So file transfer is slower than we'd like
The laptop doesn't cope well with serious gaming or processor heavy tasks

There are only two USB ports and they're not USB 3.0, so file transfer is slower than we'd like, The laptop doesn't cope well with serious gaming or processor heavy tasks, The robust design won't be to everyone's tastes, While there are a couple of hundre
Great value for money, the Acer Chromebook R11 is simple to use and will last nearly a full day on one charge too. While it's not suitable for anything other than web surfing and basic word processing, it's a cost-effective solution for anyone on a limite...
The R11 is a decent, if unspectacular device. Having the option to position it in a variety of modes is fun, but the sometimes sluggish performance makes it hard to recommend to anyone who wants to do more than a couple of simultaneous tasks. If your need...

Acer's Chromebook R 11 has a neat hybrid design and the price is right, but simpler, non-touch devices offer better value...
All things told, though, I like the Acer Chromebook R11. I've always been a fan of the Chromebook way of doing things – like most people, my digital life is lived almost entirely in a browser these days – and Acer's decision to add in a welcome bit of fle...

Convertible, Attractively minimalist, Good battery life
Terrible trackpad, HD, only screen
The Acer Chromebook R11's minimalist design may not be the sexiest, but that exterior hides a deceptively capable machine that'll last all day. Oh, and it can flip 360-degrees into a tablet. No big deal...
SpecsThe Acer Chromebook R 11 is a 2-in-1 device that works as both a laptop and tablet, and it's actually pretty comfortable to use in both modes. It hits the right marks in terms of both design and performance, although it is a bit heavy to use exclusiv...
Decent performance, all day battery life, sturdy build quality,
Rather chunky build, Chrome OS has limitations, display could be sharper
A modestly priced, sturdy convertible with all-day battery life that is ideal for casual use though Chrome OS's limitations mean more demanding users have to look elsewhere...

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.Acer Chromebook R11$299.99MSRP(USD)4.6 Out of 5Nailed itSol...
All in all, the Chromebook R11 is a beautiful budget Chromebook with only a few shortcomings. If you can get over some of the stuttering and frame rate drops on web pages, the Chromebook R11 might just be the perfect compact and portable laptop for you to...
