Acer Chromebook 14 CB3-431 - (Intel Celeron N3160, 4GB RAM, 32GB eMMC, 14 inch FHD Display, Google Chrome OS, Silver)

Product Information

But there is an Android app for it and I've heard that people have had great success running it on chromebooks. The silver model I received looks about as dull as a laptop can get; it’s got a plain, grey casing, and the interior colour and layout are boring. I have alternative Android and online Bible resources and I can use them in a pinch when I need to, but in no way would I want that to be my primary mode of operating. The chassis is constructed from an aluminium alloy, which feels nice and sturdy, but it weighs exactly the same as its predecessor, tipping the scales at 1.

One downside of the higher resolution display is a shorter battery life, but I’d argue that it’s an acceptable trade-off. Despite the word ‘stunning’ being used frequently in the product description, Acer’s Chromebook 14 is an ugly-looking thing, just like its predecessor.Before beginning, make sure your computer is completely turned off and disconnected from any external power sources. At one time, I was using Crossover (WINE for Android/Chrome) that allowed me to install the Windows version of e-Sword on my Pixelbook.

The Acer Chromebook 14 has a Celeron N3160 processor, 4GB RAM, 32GB storage, 1080p display, matte screen, and all aluminum body. I needed to install an audio driver, trackpad driver, and a keyboard remap, and all components works.

All hardware components are supported and the look and feel running Linux on this thing is extremely good. That isn’t a wide difference in practical terms, but I would have expected the newer Intel Celeron N3160 chip to just about nudge ahead. I just discovered that the chromebook modding community has gotten the Google Pixelbook fully supported under Windows 10. On this occasion, I opened up WebGL’s Aquarium benchmark to test the Chromebook 14’s graphics capabilities.
