IFA 2025 kicks off this week, and Acer isn’t wasting any time. The PC maker has just announced a variety of new Chrome OS devices and PCs ahead of the annual tech expo.
Perhaps the most notable Chrome OS device is the aluminum-clad Chromebook Plus Spin 514, which features the MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910 chipset. This processor is basically the Dimensity 9400 flagship chip for smartphones, but with a slightly downgraded GPU. Otherwise, it still has one heavy-lifting Cortex-X925 CPU core, three Cortex-X4 cores, and four Cortex-A720 cores. In plain English, the Chromebook Plus Spin 514 is one of the most powerful Arm-based Chromebooks on the market.
