Customer Ratings & Reviews

Light and slim design, very easy to carry, Can run every day Chrome OS tasks fine, including video playing. Good for kids doing online education.

This little will work great when traveling it’s compact and very nice to view my trail camera cards with and for the price I got mine at 70% off I love it

Chromebook has a lot of features to ensure reduced access to underage kids using laptop. Set up was time-consuming but worth it. No issues with product.

Great laptop for most things I need. Easy to find replacement c-charger after my dog chewed mine.

The Acer Chromebook 311 Model CB311-11H-K04N Chromebook is a basic laptop. It comes with the MTK MT8183 with an Octa-core processor, 4GB of ram, 32GB storage, and a 36w Li-ion battery, and an 11.6 LCD screen. Setting up the Chromebook was simple. Enter my chosen Gmail account and tada, it’s ready to go. The first thing I did was look for an SD or MicroSD port for my eBooks to test. Unfortunately, there isn’t a port to be found. The only choice is a USBa 2.0 or a USBc that also doubles as a charging port. The small 32GB onboard storage and lack of an SD card port/reader limit my ability to use the laptop as I want to. Having a USB stick hanging out is a pain and typically gets broken or lost. The sound has two speakers and while the sound is okay and not tinny, it is a bit muddy. I was unable to turn up the volume as loud as I’d like, but if I could, I think it would just sound worse. I think Acer maxed out the 2 speakers the best they could without making it awful. The large bezel on the screen is also a negative on this unit. Usually, most screens nowadays have a thin bezel and are more pleasing to the eye. Speaking of the screen, it isn’t 1080p, rather it’s 1366x768, so buyer beware that it’s a low-res screen. Well enough of the cons, what does it do right? It has long battery life. The sticker on the keyboard states up to 15 hours of battery life. I’ve had it fully charged for close to a week and used it several times and it still has half a charge on the battery indicator. It has 802.11ac Wi-Fi connectivity. It’s light, I believe I read somewhere 2.2 lbs. It’s a thin design, so being light and thin makes it great for a child or someone that needs a mobile Chromebook. It is very snappy, and I haven’t noticed any lag or hesitation while using it. In my opinion, a tablet would work better for someone that just has internet access, but if you need a laptop and don’t want to lug around a heavy unit, this will do the trick. I prefer a real keyboard vs a tablet. It’s just easier for me to navigate. YMMV. Finally, for me, this Chromebook does exactly what I want and expect. It doesn’t do anything great, but it will let me watch videos, check email, listen to a song or two before I want to play music on another system. It will run Microsoft Word and Excel for quick tasks, such as writing this review. The large keyboard fits my hands and I only found myself feeling a little scrunched when using the middle keys and my index fingers. I like having a computer by the home entertainment center to do quick checks on subjects that come up when watching a show. The Chromebook is great for this as I can just open it up and it almost instantly is ready for my question. With this old brain, sometimes I get distracted while loading the OS and then forget what I want to research. With Chromebook that doesn’t happen, and I get my results fast. So, would I recommend this Chromebook? Well, I would if I had a child that required one in school. This one is nice and light and doesn’t break the bank if it should get damaged or lost. Also, if someone likes to have a computer close by to check stuff as it pops into their brain. Maybe in a kitchen for recipes, or like me, by the tv. If you’re looking for a laptop that will run current Windows or OsX applications, then buy one of those laptops, but if your needs fit within the Chromebook OS, why spend a ton of cash to do the simple things you need?

Got it for $80. Not a bad price for what it is. Nothing special but it does what it is supposed to.

I’m very pleased with this chrome book, for the Best Buy deal of the day price. This laptop computer is amazing in its functionality and convenience.

Very good quality Chromebook! Purchased for mom for a gift for Christmas and she loves it. It's just what she needed to keep busy during the pandemic.

Nice unit. Comfortable keyboard and reasonably responsive. It is different than my Apple products, so it takes some getting used to.

Good little off task device. Fast and reliable. Only issue is that the screen resolution is nor the best, but you get what you pay for.

I got this for my nephew he loves it. Its great for homework and all there school work. I got it amazingly at a very good price so im very satified.

Excellent product for the price. I purchased this for my son to do school work on and we’ve had absolutely zero problems.

I bought this for my grandson to use for school. I based my purchase on 1 positive review. Will update my review when I get feedback from my grandson.

I absolutely love my mini Acer Chromebook! It does everything my big Chromebook does. It's nice to carry to my different classes. I highly recommend it

I love my Acer Chromebook. It's small, lightweight, easy to use and suits my needs perfectly. This was actually my Christmas gift to myself.

Good small chromebook. Nothing fancy. I use it for travel. Drawback USB is not 3.0. Acer is pretty good

This is lightweight and tiny, but don’t let’s it’s size and great price fool you. It’s fast and great for the kids. Does just what they need.

It’s good for kids for their homework! It doesn’t have a hdmi port and it’s it not windows so not much you can do on it

I needed a laptop since my other one broke and will be sent for repair. Bought this one as a back up, seems to be working great.

Very good general use laptop. At this price gets work done. Pleased with it. Do not expect much!!
