Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is Ok item, the price is ok for use something simple

It works great for classes but not for social media.

there is no display port although the writeup says there is. The left side has a USB type Aand a USB C (used for power) and a standard 1/8" headphone jack. The right side is the same but without the headphone jack but does have the security jack.

This is the second Chromebook I have owned. My solid review point is that for anyone looking for an internet enable computing laptop that performs like a high end computer with a ton of features. This is the right device for you. Out of the box, the device runs Chrome OS and works like a trumped up Android phone or tablet. The Acer Chromebook 315 is geared out with entry level specifications but again performs exceedingly well. The unit has a wonderful 15.6 inch display with an Intel UHD Graphics 600 controller. With entry level specs, I am quite impressed with how beautiful the screen display is for a touch screen. Vibrant colors are magnificently illuminated, and darks are true. Because of the large screen display, the keyboard is a full keyboard with the inclusion of a ten-key. The model 315 I have has 64GB of flash memory. So far, during testing, this has been more than adequate to perform and operate at an optimal performance level. Please note that with 4GB internal and the 64GB, this unit was never meant to be a gaming unit. That said, I was able to download some, and they streamed or played excellently. The download capabilities are perfectly in line with current industry standards, running a Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) as well as Gigabit Wi-Fi (2x2 802.11ac 160 MHz). The Acer Chromebook 315 has two USB and two USB type-C ports. It does lack any HDMI ports but offers two solutions. You can Chromecast to almost any Chrome capable device or grab an adapter. We like to carry our Chromebook on trips and use it on our Hotel TVs. My overall impression is that this Acer Chromebook 315 (CB315-3HT) is a viable choice for any potential purchaser. The Acer performs smoothly on its Intel Celeron N4020 dual-core processor. The unit is lightweight at just over three and a half pounds and has amazing battery life.

Descent so far, screen can be a little glitchy but overall pretty good.

I don't think the Chromebook is suitable for the use I had in mind.

First my overall rating is weak 4 stars, but due to use of older cpu/graphics chip which is showing signs of being simply outdated for the new apps and software to function smoothly. Worst is the lack of inclusion of a dedicated micro SD slot. Not sure given the limited included standard memory why a dedicated micro SD slot is not included. The upside is you do have 3 solid usb slots, two are usb-c and can charge the laptop. The included usb c charger is 45 watts and does a quick job of recharging the laptop hd last a long cord so easy to plug in and still have flexible length to be plugged in and move around for comfort sitting distance from the outlet. Wifi 5 is rock solid and the Bluetooth is just as solid. The unit is fairly light less than 3.5lbs given the screen size. The keyboard is easy to use with nice tactile feedback, surprisingly. The screen is matte to reduce reflection but not as bright as you would like and colors are muted I think due to the matte screen but reflections are low so that is a plus. My main issue is the cou/graphics chip should be a more recent chip given the just under $300 price point. If you get this under $220 then yes grab it. I do like the included laptop sleep with storage pocket for your charger and smaller items. Great student laptop and the Google OS is buttery smooth.

These computers suck and are a waste of money. Can't upgrade, can't handle running Spotify and Excel at the same time (I use it for hosting trivia shows) lagging excessively. I'm not one to leave reviews at all honestly but I was shocked at how useless this was.

Battery life is average and no backlight keyboard. Chrome OS is so bad

Incredibly slow when compared to the former Acer Intel i3 processor/4 gb RAM/128 SSD. Start up is very sluggish. Web pages load much slower than the former Chromebook. Lesson learned on downgrading to a slower processor.

This is a poor excuse for a laptop. It quiet literally uses a phones OS stuffed in a cheap over priced shell. worst investment of the year so far. Also, DO NOT buy from best buy.

Had to return it because it doesnt have windows sadly

Work nice i do wish it was user friendly on the screen

I bought this Chromebook a month. Very poor battery compared to my previous Lenovo Chromebook. Battery not even lasting for 3 hours after a full charge. It was supposed to be good for 10+ hours after a full charge. My bad I missed the returnable window.

Chrome was not compatible with certain app I need for work

Nice laptop I wish I could use Microsoft office. A few downfalls but its ok for web browsing.

It’s okay. Gets slow even though was barely ever used

After just getting past the windows setup screen I could tell how terrible the light bleed and uniformity was on this Chromebook. It also feel really cheap. I cannot speak to the other specs and features since as son as I could tell I would not tolerate the display alone I restored it to factory settings and returned it.

Runs extremely slow. I feel like I wasted money because I don't even use it!

I had to return this item. My son was not a fan of a Chromebook.
