Acer’s Chromebook Spin 512 is a premium convertible Chromebook designed for use in education, with great performance and a durable body
Great Performance
The 12” 3:2 aspect ratio touchscreen of the Chromebook 512 provides 18% more vertical viewing space compared to a 16:9 screen, making it the perfect choice for word processing, web browsing and many other activities. The HD+ IPS panel further enhances the viewing experience with vivid colours and wide viewing angles.
The 360° hinge and full touchscreen allow students to use the laptop in 4 different positions, depending on the task at hand and what they find most convenient.
The Intel Celeron CPU and 4GB of RAM ensure that it’s powerful enough to handle a wide variety of workloads, while the 32GB of eMMC storage offers plenty of space for all your apps.
The Chromebook Spin 512 also has integrated Gigabit Wi-Fi to ensure that staying connected isn’t an issue.
Battery life is another major concern and the Chromebook Spin 512 makes the grade easily, lasting up to 11 hours on a single charge - enough to last through the school day with plenty of time left over for homework in the evening.
Durable Body
Accidents happen, especially in classrooms, which is why the Chromebook Spin 512 has been built to survive drops, knocks, spills and other day-to-day mishaps.
Thanks to the ultra-rugged design with integrated bumpers and special drainage points underneath the keyboard, the Chromebook Spin 512 is tested to survive drops of up to 122cm, spills of up to 330ml amongst other things.
All these features combined mean the Chromebook Spin 512 fully complies with MIL-STD 810G standards, which certifies that that it meets the requirements of the US Military in terms of durability.
Excellent Reliability
As well as featuring Acer’s standard 12-month warranty, this model of Chromebook Spin 512 is also covered by the Acer Reliability Promise, which means that if the monitor suffers a warranty fault within the first 12 months, not only will it be repaired for you, you’ll be refunded 100% of the price paid as well.
