Introduction
The best-selling Chromebook gets even better!
The Acer Chromebook 11 is the best-selling Chromebook out there, and it has now been made even better. The new version (the C740 model) retains everything that made this such a popular device, but it adds a stronger, more attractive body design, a powerful new Intel CPU, longer battery life, super-fast wireless plus much more!
Engineered to be strong
The new Acer Chromebook 11 (C740 model) features four design improvements that make it much tougher than its predecessor. With reinforced corners, increased cover thickness, additional rib panels and longer hinge brackets, the new Chromebook 11 is capable of surviving much more mistreatment than ever before.
More power, for longer
This new Acer Chromebook 11 is the most powerful 11" Chromebook you can get, thanks to the latest Intel processor based on Broadwell micro-architecture. Boot up in 7 seconds, then power through your tasks and play games for longer, because the C740's battery provides up to 9 hours of on-the-road freedom.
"Wow" webcam
With its High Dynamic Range webcam, the new Chromebook 11 delivers clearer, more natural images, for great video chats and photos.
Faster airborne data
With cutting-edge 802.11ac wireless technology firing on dual channels, the new Chromebook 11 transmits and receives airborne data up to three times faster than the average laptop does.
Better visuals on HD screen
The C740 model of the Acer Chromebook 11 now gives you clearer viewing experiences, thanks to its 11.6" anti-glare HD display.
Designed to look great
The new Acer Chromebook 11 looks great because we added metallic-looking finishes to the top cover and hinge caps.
