84% I played AAA games on a 'gaming Chromebook' with GeForce Now and Xbox Game Pass — which one is better?

Put one way, the Chromebook Plus 516 GE is an incredible value: You can play high-end PC games at their highest settings and highest frame rates for less than the cost of a PS5 Pro. As a nice bonus, it’s also a fully functional laptop. This $650 machine is expensive and beefy by Chromebook standards, but it’s still a better value than a gaming laptop as long as you don’t mind game streaming. Quality battery life, a great keyboard, and a solid gaming display seal the deal. I might never buy one of these for myself, but there’s definitely someone out there who would get the most out of the Chromebook Plus 516 GE.

Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE review: worth the upgrade? [VIDEO]
Källa: Chrome Unboxed EN→SV
If you can still find the original 516 GE, especially at a clearance price, it’s definitely the better buy. You’ll get the same great performance and features for less money. However, if you can only find the Plus version 516 GE, don’t worry. It’s still a fantastic Chromebook that you’ll enjoy using and the $649.99 MSRP has always been a very fair deal on both of these versions of this incredible Chromebook. At some point in the near future, only the new model will be available, so if you are seeing this when both are available, definitely choose the more affordable option at the time.

90% Can you play games on a Chromebook Plus? I tested one to find out
Källa: Android Authority EN→SV
If you are interested in a Chromebook that can handle your business and casual needs, the Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE is perfect as long as your apps and services of choice are either available directly through the web, as an Android app, or can be sideloaded through the Chromebook’s Linux compatibility layer. As a gaming device? Chromebooks aren’t still ready to take the gaming world by storm. Just like I said previously, this is more on Google than Acer. Steam support is still a beta feature that’s sort of “try at your own risk” as results can vary from game to game. Additionally, the death of Stadia makes the whole cloud gaming angle a little harder to sell, even if it plays nicely with all the major 3rd party cloud platforms.

90% Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE (2024) review: a great, if not mind-blowing, refresh
Källa: Techradar EN→SV
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. The new version is a fine upgrade as the specs have all been improved (and doubled in some cases), it sports an excellent display, and the keyboard and touchpad are still great. However, the sound quality is still awful and though affordable for a gaming machine it's on the pricey side for a Chromebook.

80% Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE review: A bit weird, but still great
Källa: PC World EN→SV
Acer’s Chromebook Plus 516 GE is a strong pick for shoppers who want a ChromeOS laptop with good performance, lots of storage, and a big screen. The $650 price tag is a bit high for a Chromebook, but the 516 GE offers a lot of value for the money, and it’s sure to appeal to ChromeOS loyalists. It’s also a solid platform for cloud gaming, as the 120Hz display offers good motion fluidity. However, the updated Core 5 120U processor puts the new 516 GE in an odd spot. It has two fewer cores than the Core i5-1240P in the outgoing model and, as a result, delivered slightly lower performance overall. I still recommend the 516 GE, but the new model feels more like a marketing maneuver than a useful update.

One of the best laptops you can buy for less than $700 is not what you'd expect
Källa: Zdnet.com EN→SV
If you're a gamer who primarily streams off the cloud and is looking for a portable, capable device, the Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE is a fantastic option, especially for the price. It doesn't have a high-end video card or tons of RAM, but the display's fast refresh rate and solid processor make it well-suited for streaming games and multimedia. Despite its niche near the top of the line of gaming Chromebooks, the Acer Chromebook Plus 516 GE would also make a solid device to take to work with its strong battery life and nice processor. To entice people to join the Chromebook Plus party, Google is offering the Google One AI Premium plan for free for a year to new users. This gives you not only upgraded storage but also enables you to use Gemini Advanced, including in Docs and Gmail.

Intel Iris Xe G7 80EUs:

Det här är mindre avancerade grafikkort för användare som ändå vill kunna spela spel. Nya spel bör vara spelbara, men ofta bara med låga detaljinställningar och låg upplösning. Eftersom moderna grafikkort i den här klassen har låg strömförbrukning kan även batteritiden vara bra.
