    My Acer Chromebook 15 has always been very slow, so much I stopped using it. Like to return to it, but what is wrong? Slow doing everything; enail, Facebook & games. This is what I use it for.

    I guess you got what you pay for, that is why Chromebooks are cheaper. Whenever I see Pentium or Celeron as the CPU, I'll always associate that with a slow machine, even EMMC being used. For about USD $400 (including US state sales tax), you can get an Aspire 5 A515-46-R14K with rather advanced technologies ( M.2 NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, 1080p IPS display, finger print reader...etc.), though may need some upgrades for serious usages. The minimum, standard configuration is already good enough for movie streaming. 

    Just got one last month and love it

    Do you have enough memory with your Chromebook? I believe a Chromebook will still be good enough for E-mail and pay bills that kind of things. Using it for games is another matter.

    If the Chromebook hitting the memory limit, then everything is slow.
