It feels firm and clicky, and is paired with an excellent trackpad. Despite fairly shallow key travel, the lack of any real flex in the base of the laptop means it’s really nice to type on. The keyboard is a standard Chromebook affair. Power is delivered over USB-C, so you do lose one if you’re charging, but equally, you can charge from both sides. You don’t get a lot, but there are two USB-C, one USB-A, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. This allows the sides to be thick enough at the back to accommodate ports. The sides of the laptop taper to their thinnest point at the front, thanks to a cleverly curved bottom panel. It looks like one of Acer’s mid-tier Ultrabooks, with a slim chassis mated to a convertible, 13-inch Full HD touch display with skinny side bezels.
It’s mostly plastic with a metallic lid, but it doesn’t look like plastic. The Chromebook Spin 513 is priced at just £399/$399/AU$560 and you get plenty for it.
The Acer Chromebook Spin 513 doesn’t do anything radical with its design, but for a sub-$500 laptop it’s very well done.
