The reviewer expresses their preference for using Chromebooks for online accounting, citing that the Google Workspace and online apps provide a seamless experience without the issues of Microsoft updates, missing functions, and other inconveniences. They mention a specific model of Acer Chromebook, the 715, which is no longer available and express some dissatisfaction with the search button on the keyboard, suggesting that it could be textured or the caps lock button could be restored. In terms of personal experience, another user received this Chromebook as a gift and has been satisfied overall. The computer performs exceptionally well for schoolwork, but when gaming, it tends to get hot quickly and the fans become noticeably louder. The reviewer also notes that there is an issue with the glue holding the screen, as it has started to come off, resulting in a bulge at the bottom of the screen measuring about an inch and a half. Despite these issues, the reviewer states that the computer is not that bad. Overall, customers have expressed positive feedback about the new Chromebook, highlighting its excellent performance, lightweight design, larger screen, and longer battery life. However, there are some minor drawbacks such as the heat and fan noise during gaming, as well as potential issues with the screen, specifically the glue holding it in place. Nonetheless, the majority of users are satisfied with their purchase and appreciate the benefits of using a Chromebook within the Google ecosystem.
