New Acer Chromebook 15 Boasts Larger Display and Longer Battery Life

Acer has updated its Chromebook line with the launch of its new aluminum Chromebook 15 at IFA 2017.

Unlike its previous models, it now flaunts a 15.6-inch full HD IPS display with wide-viewing angles, and now boasts a longer battery life of up to 12 hours. To complement its larger display, the device is equipped with two upward-facing speakers that deliver high-definition audio.

“Movies, apps, games and websites are immersive and the stunning display pairs beautifully with an aluminum design, quiet performance and up to 12 hours of battery life. The Chromebook 15 continues Acer’s legacy of delivering the most innovative Chromebooks in the industry and in the widest range of sizes,” said James Lin, General Manager, Commercial and Detachable Notebooks, IT Products Business, Acer Inc.

To offer great performance for apps and the web, processor options are either the latest dual-core Intel Celeron or quad-core Intel Pentium processors. The line will be available with 4GB or 8GB of RAM, and 32GB or 64GB of eMMC storage, too.
