It's easily one of, if not the, most expensive Chromebook on the market today. The biggest problem with the HP Elite Dragonfly Chromebook is the price tag.
There are some pre-configured options available, but if you want the most powerful Chromebook, then you can configure it yourself with Intel's 12th Gen chips, all the way up to the Core i7-1265U and 32GB of RAM. Instead, it just uses ChromeOS to emulate a click, ensuring that no matter where you push down on the trackpad, it will register a response.īut what makes this one of the best gaming Chromebooks is the power that's under the hood. If you've ever used a MacBook then you'll know what we're talking about, as it doesn't actually move when you click it. There are a few things that help the Dragonfly separate itself from the pack, starting with the haptic trackpad. Plus, the Gorilla Glass trackpad offers an experience that is much different from Acer's norm. In our Chromebook Spin 714 review, we found that the 14-inch 2K display is absolutely gorgeous and is one of the best displays on any Chromebook. Thanks to the 12th-gen Intel chips, Acer was able to include Thunderbolt 4 compatibility, something that isn't readily available on many Chromebook models.
But considering this is one of the only Chromebooks that is compatible with Steam Beta, it's just one of those sacrifices that you'll have to make, for now at least.
And by limited, we mean that there is currently only one version that you can pick up today: the Core i5 version paired with 8GB RAM and a 256GB SSD. Unfortunately, if you do opt for the latest Spin 714, you are limited in the available configurations. In that case, you'll need to get the latest version available, which is powered by Intel's 12th-gen Core i5 chipset. There are multiple versions available, so you'll need to pay close attention to the specs provided if you want to enjoy Steam Beta on the go. As if it weren't obvious already by its inclusion on the list of best Chromebooks, we're big fans of the Acer Chromebook Spin 714.
