Acer announced a slew of new additions to its portfolio last night and well, the Acer Chromebook Spin 513 is one of the standout products. In a world of Intel-powered Chrome OS devices, this is the first one to be backed by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7c compute platform that was announced alongside the Snapdragon 865 and 765G 5G chipsets earlier last year.
This Chromebook includes an aluminum top cover and a 360-degree hinge that will enable you to use the device in four modes – clamshell, display, tablet, and tent. The Spin 513 is also quite lightweight and thin. It weighs just 1.2kgs and is 15.5mm thick respectively.
In terms of connectivity, Acer Chromebook Spin 513 supports Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11ac. You also have the option to configure 4G LTE connectivity to make it possible to use the device on the go. The device also includes two USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 1 and a single USB-A 3.2 port.
Acer Chromebook Spin 513 has been priced starting at $399 (~Rs. 29,399) in the US and will be available to buy in February 2021. There is currently no information about its India launch, so stay tuned for more updates.
