Our new Chromebooks provide advances in all the areas that have helped establish them as an essential tool for learning: student-focused durability features, reliable performance and advanced connectivity options to support school technology initiatives.”

    -James Lin, General Manager, Notebooks, IT Products Business, Acer Inc.

    Impactful Learning and Teaching with Chrome Education Upgrade, Zero-Touch Enrollment

    The all-new Acer Chromebooks are available with Chrome Education Upgrade which enables staff and administrators to manage, deploy, and plan for student learning. IT departments can easily conduct admin support, manage devices and have the new Acer Chromebook automatically enrolled to their school sites as soon sd the end user connects to the internet through Zero-touch enrollment.

    Durability Features Designed Especially for Students

    All of the new Acer Chromebooks for education have impact-resistant exteriors that meet MIL-STD 810H testing standards to withstand the daily trials of a busy school environment. They feature a reinforced corner design with a shock-absorbent bumper so they are protected from drops as high as 122 cm (48 inches) and can withstand up to 60 kg (132.3 lbs) of pressure. These new durable Chromebooks also feature elongated and widened internal brackets that protect the display, even when they are being mishandled. Plus, the ports have been reinforced with metallic plating to protect them from the wear and tear of frequent student use.

    The four new Chromebooks each have a keyboard designed to protect the device from common student accidents. The keyboard is spill-resistant and features a unique drainage system that helps protect the internal components from up to 330 ml (11 oz) of water spills. All four Acer Chromebooks feature a moisture-resistant OceanGlass touchpad, made from ocean-bound plastics, reducing waste while providing a sleek, glass-like texture and responsive tactile feeling.

    They also have mechanically anchored keys that are difficult for inquisitive students to remove, but at the same time, simple for IT personnel to repair or replace. The Acer Chromebook 511, Acer Chromebook Spin 511 and Acer Chromebook Spin 512 also feature a new serviceable keyboard that can be completely removed and replaced with the removal of just two screws. Finally, all four new Acer Chromebooks have been certified to meet two leading toy safety standards, the ASTM F963-16 and UL/IEC 60950-1, meaning they’re also safe to share with younger children.
