Acer CB5-311 is a 13-inch laptop equipped with an ARM processor Tegra K1 4 (+1) x 2.1 GHz, 4 GB RAM, and acting under the control of the ChromeOS. This system is both the greatest advantage, as well as the biggest problem of this equipment. As a matter is extensive Chrome. System users have access to a web browser, media player and a truncated creating and editing documents, to some simple games and applications in a poor store.
Actually, I have mentioned acts constitute 99% of all computer activity generated by the “average Joe”, and therefore for the Chromebook is the idea that a matter of fact we do not need nothing more than a browser and Internet access. Exactly what offers us this equipment. Browser (and thus also all the services available on the Internet), and editor of documents based on Google Docs.
System solutions based on “cloud” and that’s where all the attention is directed users. Most operations are performed using a browser, and the files are stored in the Google cloud, in which each user automatically after purchase Chromebook gets 1 TB of memory (100 GB is not mentioned on the cover).
If you have “something” we can do for this item is the activities are carried out very smoothly and efficiently. However, this liquidity is based on partial pruning functionality. Acer CB5-311 has 32 GB SSD, but the user remains little more than 22 GB. If you do not have Internet access, you can use this space for documents, and multimedia. The system will start very soon, log on to it using our Google Account password. From raising the lid to a fully operational (and enter your password on the way) shall end no more than 5-6 seconds.
In Poland, the only version will be available in white, which looks extremely impressive. The casing is plastic, but somehow the material used is at least satisfactory. Housing does not creak, creaks and does not bend.
The device is very “neat”. Light weight (1.5 kg) and small size (1.7 cm thick) go hand in hand with a fairly solid-looking hinges. I was able to cover open for a little over 140 degrees.
Appearance laptop is very simple, you could even say that the minimalist, on top you will find only the Acer logo and Chrome. In the middle while they are only two / three stickers.
On the back we find a USB 3.0 port and HDMI on the left side and another USB SD card slot on the right side of the charging socket placed and headphone output.
The keyboard is standard practice, of course, we do not find the keys to operate Windows-based options, and at the top instead of the F … we find the function keys to adjust the volume or brightness of the screen. Key travel is small but perceptible, writing is as natural and comfortable.
Acer applied in this model display with a resolution of Full HD. Its quality is good, and the brightness is sufficient, although poor viewing angles leave a bad taste.
drivers are placed under the cover, and the quality is surprisingly good. Of course, good for the standards found in laptops. Same speakers are not very loud, but the quality of the sound is not played back pretty good.
The battery is not removable, and to get inside the equipment would spin it (standard screws in the number of pieces 13). On the bottom you will find also four rubber “feet”. Now that I mention it’s a shame that the battery was not proud of her Acer. Actually, I still could not unload your laptop, but I did not work on it without interruption. Administered by the manufacturer of the time of action of 11 hours is most likely. Foreign reviewers have also confirmed this information. Laptop with no problem should last from 10 to 14 hours depending on the intensity of the work.
To connect to the world in addition to Acer CB5-311 uses USB ports bluetooth version 4.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11ac standard. Mouse, or printer easily operate via USB, not only through bluetooth.
In summary, Acer CB5- 311 is a very interesting equipment, and in addition relatively cheap. For the price of the tablet with a mid-range laptop get more powerful than any tablet. The computer is at the light and looks very good. People who need a portable equipment, and mainly use the browser should seriously reconsider the decision to buy another laptop, because instead of spending 2.5-3 thousand for a decent hardware with Windows, for 1200 you can buy just such a Chromebook. Of course, it can not completely replace traditional computer, but it is a great addition to eg. PC …
