Three months with my chromebook

[royphotog]

Back in June, I got an Acer Chromebook Spin 713, my first Chromebook. I was all in on the Google ecosystem, having used the chrome browser for years, and have a Google Pixel phone.

I had done a lot of research and found that the 713 was one of the best at the time. I got a good deal at the time on eBay with a refurbished one from the Acer store. When it arrived it was like new, and so far I have had nothing but good luck with it. No issues at all. It's fast, the battery lasts a long time snd charges fast. It does everything I need a laptop to do. Most of what I do on a computer I do in the cloud, except some video editing and photoshop work, but I have a couple of desktops for that. The only time I would find myself using a laptop for photo editing would be when I was on vacation and I have found that I rarely do that anyway. I wait until I am back home. All in all this Chromebook has been the best laptop I have ever owned.

Nice! For a while, the Spin 713 was on sale for a great price (refurbished) on the Acer Recertified eBay store, and there was an additional 20% discount I could've used as well to bring the price down to around $320 -- almost pulled the trigger, but I would've felt silly since I already have a Pixelbook and Pixel Slate, both still awesome machines.
