Undoubtedly one of the hottest Chromebooks of the holiday shopping season, the Acer Chromebook R13 with 64GB of storage is finally beginning to see more availability at retailers around the globe.
If you happened to miss the Cyber Monday deals on the convertible, all-aluminum beauty you’re in luck. Adorama has a sweet deal on the Acer that includes a Brenthaven Elliot sleeve for only $419.
The deal isn’t new but the availability is. When Adorama originally posted the Acer the expected stock date was December 26th. A little disappointing if you wanted to surprise that special someone for Christmas.
Good news if you’ve been waiting to pull the trigger. Adorama now lists the 64GB model as in stock and available for shipping. The Acer R13 is one of the few models that has access to the Play Store in the Beta channel without the extra, intimidating developer steps.
