Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE (2024) Full Review in Detail!
The Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE is a refresh of the first gaming Chromebook, a title I thought to be functionally useless until I tried out the laptop for myself.

In early 2023 I reviewed Google's first dedicated gaming Chromebook, the Acer Chromebook 516 GE, and it changed my mind about Chromebooks and gaming.
So I was excited to get my hands on the long-awaited refresh, the Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE (2024).
