Our Verdict
Acer Chromebook Spin 714 (2022)
ASUS Chromebook Plus CX34 (2023)
The Acer Chromebook Spin 714 (2022) is much better than the ASUS Chromebook Plus CX34 (2023). The Acer is more versatile since it's a 2-in-1 convertible that you can use as a tablet. Additionally, it supports pen input and comes with a stylus. You can get the ASUS with a touch-sensitive display, but its limited hinge range makes it impossible to flip the screen into tablet mode. The Acer also has a brighter display, a better keyboard and webcam, and significantly longer battery life.
