Support a range of student activities
with an Acer Chromebook 712
powered by Intel processors
By the time a student reaches high school, they may well be
involved with a range of pursuits, from the usual classroom fare
of literature, mathematics, science, and history, to extracurricular
ventures, club activities, and hobbies. No matter what a student’s
interests are, it pays to have a device that can keep up with their
passion and drive.
At Principled Technologies, we assessed the responsiveness of two
configurations of Acer Chromebook 712: one powered by an Intel®
Core™
i3-10110U processor, and the other powered by an Intel
Celeron®
5205U processor. Our hands-on tests measured the time
required for each Chromebook™
to complete sequences of tasks in
a variety of apps that students use in classrooms around the world.
We tested these tasks while each Chromebook was connected to a
Google Meet call.
Though both Chromebooks were responsive, we consistently found
that the Intel Core i3 processor-powered Chromebook was faster
to finish tasks. Even so, at the time of this writing, the Intel Celeron
configuration of the Acer Chromebook 712 costs $120 less than the
Intel Core i3 configuration. Depending on your needs, either device
may be right for your classrooms.1

A Principled Technologies report: Hands-on testing. Real-world results.
The Acer Chromebook 712 has a design that some product
reviewers are praising for being durable enough to survive
the less‑than‑delicate care that students sometimes employ.
Buzz Garwood of EdTech Magazine tested the rugged
capabilities of the Chromebook 712 by dropping it from
a table 48 inches off the ground. Garwood writes “the
[Chromebook] landed on its front right corner and bounced
a couple of times before resting on the floor…I was hard-
pressed to find even a scuff mark on it, thanks to the
rubberized shock‑absorbing bumper[.]”2
You can purchase
the Acer Chromebook 712 with either an Intel Celeron or
Intel Core i3 processor, but both configurations will get you
all the beneficial features outlined on this page.Δ

According to Intel, Wi-Fi 6
(802.11ax) can potentially provide
up to 2.8 times the theoretical
maximum data throughput
compared to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac)
when a WiFi 6-enabled device is connected to a
Wi-Fi 6-enabled router.3
Intel simulation data also suggests Wi-Fi
6 can result in up to 75% less latency than
Wi-Fi 5 when the router and device both
support ODFMA.4
With the greater throughput that Wi-Fi 6
can offer, users may see better upload and
download speeds.
The Intel Celeron configuration
can come with a touchscreen
for more direct and
tactile learning.

How we tested
We compared each Chromebook’s responsiveness by hand-timing three sequences of tasks that involve common
classroom apps. Before performing each sequence, we connected the Chromebooks to a two-way Google Meet
call and ran an assortment of apps in the background. In this way, we hoped to reflect a realistic remote-learning
scenario where students collaborate on classroom tasks while videoconferencing and having other apps open.
Collaborate on presentations in Google Slides in less time
The first task sequence we tested involved collaborating on Google Drive and Google Slides. Notably, the
Intel Core i3-10110U processor-powered Chromebook saved 63.9 percent of the time required to make an edit
to a Google Slides presentation, completing the task in 18.6 seconds compared to the Intel Celeron 5205U
processor-powered Chromebook’s time of 51.6 seconds.
In this report, text in the colored sections overlaying the photographs represents fictional scenarios based on the results of PT testing. Though the people
aren’t real, the scenarios present a lifelike picture of the benefits users may see in the real world.
Google Meet
Google has made their premium videoconferencing product
free and available to the general public. According to
Google, the app is used in schools, governments, and
companies worldwide.6
Google Workspace
Former G Suite app offerings are now branded as Google
Workspace—but you’ll still get the same productivity and
collaboration tools you’ve used in the past, including
Google Docs™
, Google Slides™
, Google Meet, Google
Drive, and more.7

Melissa is beyond excited to get back into the
classroom for her senior year of high school
next year. But right now, she’s helping to
put the cap on this as a photo-editor for her
school’s yearbook.
Normally she’d be taking pictures herself, but
seeing the photos her classmates have sent in,
the things that have mattered most to someone
through their own lense, offers its own kind of
excitement. Melissa’s Intel Core i3 processor-
powered Chromebook enables her to edit the
photos with ease, but she’s editing with a light
touch this time—it feels more authentic that way.
Edit photos in Adobe applications in less time
This task sequence focused on work in photo-manipulation applications Adobe®
Photoshop
Lightroom®
and Adobe Photoshop®
Express. When batch-processing a set of 140 photos in Adobe
Photoshop Lightroom, the Intel Core i3 processor-powered Chromebook took just 44 seconds
compared to 129 seconds for the Intel Celeron processor-powered Chromebook, a savings of
more than a minute.

East River High’s yearbook has won national awards for its
creative designs. But when she was a freshman, Zana was
more impressed that anyone managed to fit the school
lives of all 3,000+ of their classmates in a single book.
Now, as project manager, it’s her turn to try.
Right now, Zana is looking through the full content

Conclusion
Whether your school’s students will be returning to the classroom or learning from home next year, having a
fast Chromebook could enable them to quickly accomplish a variety of tasks. In our hands-on tests, we found
that an Intel Core i3-10110U processor-powered Acer Chromebook 712 performed tasks faster than the same
model Chromebook with an Intel Celeron 5205U. Despite the performance difference, both Chromebooks we
tested offered key features—such as Wi-Fi 6 and MIL-STD-810G-certified durability—that potential customers
may find useful. The Intel Celeron 5205U processor-powered Chromebook also carries a lower price tag than
the Intel Core i3-10110U processor-powered Chromebook at the time of this writing, and is available in a
touchscreen configuration.

Support a range of student activities  with an Acer Chromebook 712 powered by Intel processors

  • 1. Study commissioned by Acer Support a range of student activities with an Acer Chromebook 712 powered by Intel processors By the time a student reaches high school, they may well be involved with a range of pursuits, from the usual classroom fare of literature, mathematics, science, and history, to extracurricular ventures, club activities, and hobbies. No matter what a student’s interests are, it pays to have a device that can keep up with their passion and drive. At Principled Technologies, we assessed the responsiveness of two configurations of Acer Chromebook 712: one powered by an Intel® Core™ i3-10110U processor, and the other powered by an Intel Celeron® 5205U processor. Our hands-on tests measured the time required for each Chromebook™ to complete sequences of tasks in a variety of apps that students use in classrooms around the world. We tested these tasks while each Chromebook was connected to a Google Meet call. Though both Chromebooks were responsive, we consistently found that the Intel Core i3 processor-powered Chromebook was faster to finish tasks. Even so, at the time of this writing, the Intel Celeron configuration of the Acer Chromebook 712 costs $120 less than the Intel Core i3 configuration. Depending on your needs, either device may be right for your classrooms.1 † Acer Chromebook 712 C871-328J with 10th Gen Intel Core i3-10110U processor compared to an Acer Chromebook 712 C871T-C5YF with an Intel Celeron 5205U processor ∆ See the science behind this report for detailed system configurations and benchmark results.

  • 2. The Acer Chromebook 712 has a design that some product reviewers are praising for being durable enough to survive the less‑than‑delicate care that students sometimes employ. Buzz Garwood of EdTech Magazine tested the rugged capabilities of the Chromebook 712 by dropping it from a table 48 inches off the ground. Garwood writes “the [Chromebook] landed on its front right corner and bounced a couple of times before resting on the floor…I was hard- pressed to find even a scuff mark on it, thanks to the rubberized shock‑absorbing bumper[.]”2 You can purchase the Acer Chromebook 712 with either an Intel Celeron or Intel Core i3 processor, but both configurations will get you all the beneficial features outlined on this page.Δ LCD screen size: 12 inches Lithium-ion battery Bluetooth 5.0 Weight: 3.31 pounds Touchpad USB Type-C ports: 2 USB 3.0 ports: 1 Resolution: 1366 x 912 Durability: According to Acer, the Chromebook 712 is MIL-STD 810G certified for reliability in high and low temperatures, rain, humidity, vibration, and four-foot-high drops. It also has a spill‑resistant keyboard and a moisture-resistant touchpad.5 Get quality features no matter which Intel processor you choose According to Intel, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) can potentially provide up to 2.8 times the theoretical maximum data throughput compared to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) when a WiFi 6-enabled device is connected to a Wi-Fi 6-enabled router.3 Intel simulation data also suggests Wi-Fi 6 can result in up to 75% less latency than Wi-Fi 5 when the router and device both support ODFMA.4 With the greater throughput that Wi-Fi 6 can offer, users may see better upload and download speeds. The Intel Celeron configuration can come with a touchscreen for more direct and tactile learning. Δ See the science behind this report for detailed system configurations and benchmark results.

  • 3. How we tested We compared each Chromebook’s responsiveness by hand-timing three sequences of tasks that involve common classroom apps. Before performing each sequence, we connected the Chromebooks to a two-way Google Meet call and ran an assortment of apps in the background. In this way, we hoped to reflect a realistic remote-learning scenario where students collaborate on classroom tasks while videoconferencing and having other apps open. Collaborate on presentations in Google Slides in less time The first task sequence we tested involved collaborating on Google Drive and Google Slides. Notably, the Intel Core i3-10110U processor-powered Chromebook saved 63.9 percent of the time required to make an edit to a Google Slides presentation, completing the task in 18.6 seconds compared to the Intel Celeron 5205U processor-powered Chromebook’s time of 51.6 seconds. In this report, text in the colored sections overlaying the photographs represents fictional scenarios based on the results of PT testing. Though the people aren’t real, the scenarios present a lifelike picture of the benefits users may see in the real world. Google Meet Google has made their premium videoconferencing product free and available to the general public. According to Google, the app is used in schools, governments, and companies worldwide.6 Google Workspace Former G Suite app offerings are now branded as Google Workspace—but you’ll still get the same productivity and collaboration tools you’ve used in the past, including Google Docs™ , Google Slides™ , Google Meet, Google Drive, and more.7 Δ See the science behind this report for detailed system configurations and benchmark results.

  • 4. Melissa is beyond excited to get back into the classroom for her senior year of high school next year. But right now, she’s helping to put the cap on this as a photo-editor for her school’s yearbook. Normally she’d be taking pictures herself, but seeing the photos her classmates have sent in, the things that have mattered most to someone through their own lense, offers its own kind of excitement. Melissa’s Intel Core i3 processor- powered Chromebook enables her to edit the photos with ease, but she’s editing with a light touch this time—it feels more authentic that way. Edit photos in Adobe applications in less time This task sequence focused on work in photo-manipulation applications Adobe® Photoshop Lightroom® and Adobe Photoshop® Express. When batch-processing a set of 140 photos in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, the Intel Core i3 processor-powered Chromebook took just 44 seconds compared to 129 seconds for the Intel Celeron processor-powered Chromebook, a savings of more than a minute.
