Top-notch Chromebook!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Pros:
- Awesome screen resolution.
- Excellent hardware design and implementation. The aluminum body is beautifully designed and implemented.
- The i5 version runs smooth and is very responsive.
- The backlit keyboard is a plus but I'm sure it doesn't help with the batter life.
- The Spin 713 isn't much heavier than my original Acer R11.
- The USB-3 and USB-C port is a great bonus.
- The HDMI port is a god-send. There aren't many Chromebooks out there that give you this option. It's nice to just be able to bring an HDMI cable and plug in to any monitor that is HDMI-capable.

Con:
- Battery life. My first Chromebook, an Acer R11, is about 4 years old now but it still holds a 8-10 hour battery life.
- Footprint. The Spin 713 is a bit larger and takes up a bit of more room in my backpack than my R11.
- Price. It is a bit pricier than some of the budget Chromebooks currently being offered but none offer the design and functionality the Spin 713 does under $500.

Type with this multi-device Logitech wireless keyboard. The built-in rubber cradle supports devices vertically, making small screens easily viewable, and 128-bit AES encryption keeps information private. Compatible with Windows, Mac, Chrome and Android devices, this Logitech wireless keyboard uses USB and Bluetooth technology to connect to your smartphone and tablet.

Great keyboard!

Very convenient while switching between 2 computers. Now that I'm currently working from home it is much more convenient than the traditional KVM switch. This would be a 5-star review only if the keyboard was either backlit or the keys were illuminated. I prefer to work in semi-darkness and it is difficult to see the keys.
