Now I say I've been getting on well with it. And yes, on several occasions when I've been running around London, I've taken just the Chromebook and not been paranoid about leaving it in taxis because it's cheap and has no data on board. On foreign trips...

Acer's C720P (full name C720P-29554G01aww) is essentially the same Chrombook as the C720 that we reviewed back in November 2013, but it adds a touchscreen to the mix. It's claimed by Acer to the first Chromebook with a touchscreen, and, if nothing else, i...

Acer has been quick to add a touchscreen to its Chromebook line up, but there's not much you can do with the touch capability at the moment. If nothing else, it adds some much needed good looks to the Chromebook C720 series, and the C720P is still a solid...

Everything seems to need a touchscreen these days, and Acer’s getting in on that, adding a touch panel to its C720 Chromebook. Does it make the computer better? The fourth Chromebook for Acer, the C720P takes something familiar and gives it a fresh c...

The Acer Chromebook C720P is the first Chrome OS laptop to come with a touchscreen. That's what caught our interest straight away. It also happens to cost just £260 which is very hard to sniff at given that Windows-based, Ultrabook PCs start at around thr...
The price, the battery life and speed of operation are excellent. It's a very decent size too.
The touchscreen doesn't call for much use and the keyboard could be a little classier. Chrome OS is also far from perfect...
It's hard to argue with the value on offer here. It's a great laptop for students but probably best to go for the cheaper model without the touch-enabled display...

Say hello to the Acer Chromebook C720P, a touchscreen-infused revamp of last year’s budget-priced Acer C720, which comes packing Google's Chrome OS in some seriously slim and light hardware, but is this the right Chromebook for you, especially with Sam...
Chromebooks are known for being speedy little machines, as Google’s OS is lightweight and nimble, and the Acer C720P is no exception. Under the hood it’s powered by a snappy Intel Haswell 1.4GHz processor, which absolutely flies, plus it boots up and wakes from sleep in a snap. You’ll find a standard array of ports on offer here, with a HDMI output, USB 3.0 port and a headphone/mic combo jack on...
There’s not much to fault Acer on with its latest hardware, although the C720P does lack the Chromebook Pixel’s glorious 1080p full HD screen - but hey, it’s not trying to compete on equal footing and pricing anyway. Do be aware that you’ll only find 16GB of storage on the C720P, which seems meagre when compared with other Chromebooks that pack in huge hard drives, but the SSD disk is fast, and b...
The Acer C720P Chromebook is a solid choice if you’re in the market for a Chrome OS-powered machine, and until Samsung’s super quiet, mobile-powered Chromebook 2 hits, Acer’s effort is definitely our favourite low priced Chromebook - just remember, the...

What is the Acer C720P Chromebook? The Acer C720p Chromebook is the updated version of the 11.6-inch C720P announced in late 2013, giving it a white makeover that's almost certain to get dirty as quick as a box fresh pair of white trainers. Priced at arou...
Chromebooks on the whole have to make certain sacrifices to keep the price tag low and usually it's the screen quality and power that suffers the most. With the C720P, Acer manages to address these issues and while we probably can't expect a full HD displ...

Acer has been on a roll lately. They've announced their second Chromebook, the C720 back in 2013 . Since then, they've announced a few variants of that $250 Chromebook. There's the C720-2646 which has 2GB of RAM (instead of 4GB in the C720) and is selling...
I won't say this is the best Chromebook, under $500 yet, but I will say it's pretty close. However, I may be a bit biased, as I've only ever used Acer and Samsung Chromebooks, aside from the Pixel which isn't under $500. The Acer C720P is definitely a g...
