Acer Googlebook 14 Opens in a new window Credit: Acer Acer Googlebook 14 $899 at Best Buy Pre-order Here Why we like it Acer’s Googlebook 14 is the most affordable model of the bunch and the only true 2-in-1 convertible in the initial lineup.
At $899, you get 360-degree versatility to flip between laptop, tent, and tablet modes — making it ideal for taking notes or using Android apps on a desktop.
Despite the lower price tag, Acer didn't cheap out on specs: it packs a razor-sharp 2.8K OLED touch display, Intel's brand-new Core Ultra 3 Panther Lake processor, and a premium aluminum-and-magnesium chassis weighing just 2.7 pounds.
The one convertible of the bunch.
