Acer Chromebook Plus Laptops Help Customers Do More

The new Acer Chromebook Plus 515 and Acer Chromebook Plus 514 empower users with
advanced capabilities to maximize their productivity and express their creativity with ease.
With Adobe Photoshop[3] and Adobe Express, editing photos and creating standout graphics was never easier on a Chromebook.

Acer Chromebook Plus users can also get Photoshop on the web and Adobe Express Premium plan for three months at no additional cost. With Firefly-powered generative AI features and the precision of Photoshop together with Adobe Express’s all-in-one app, users have everything they need to create images and designs to their heart’s content[4]
.
Built-in editing capabilities also enable quicker and easier photo and video enhancements. For example, the AI-powered Magic Eraser feature in the built-in Google Photos app easily removes unwanted distractions, while a few easy clicks of the movie creation tools provide advanced video edits.

When Acer Chromebook Plus users are away from an internet connection, they can now take advantage of File Sync, which ensures Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides are always
accessible via Chromebook Plus File Manager, whether online or offline[5]
