Considering its performance, size, and cost, the Acer Chromebook 314 provides a lot of value as a laptop. Anyone in the market for a Chromebook that provides excellent battery life, a crisp screen, is reliable, and comes in the small but not-too small package – it has a 14-inch screen, after all – will appreciate this portable. The Acer Chromebook 314 is not a monster of a laptop and it knows this, working extremely within its limitations. As such, it manages to balance performance, battery life, features, usability, and design for a well-rounded computing experience.

Acer’s Chromebook 314 is one of the best budget laptops out there thanks to its attractive price, good build quality and port selection, and exemplary battery life. The biggest weak point here is undoubtedly the screen, with the low resolution and flat colours falling way short of laptops with Full HD IPS displays. And while performance is decent for the price, it does mean you’re restricted to basic tasks. But with all that being said, you’re unlikely to find a better laptop for the price. If you want a machine with a Full HD IPS panel, the functionality of Windows and more powerful hardware, you’ll be required to pay a significant premium over the 314’s price.

60% Acer Chromebook 314-H review: Big battery, budget screen
Source: Expert Reviews
On balance, this isn’t a bad Chromebook for the money. It’s usable and, while not exactly speedy, is fast enough for simple, everyday tasks. Yet we keep coming back to that underwhelming screen and the feeling that this would have been a much better option with a bit more oomph. If budgets are tight, you might consider it, but there’s not enough here for this Chromebook to stand out.

Acer Chromebook 314 (C933) review – what if your Android smartphone was a laptop
Source: Laptop Media
Actually, the Chromebook 314 (C933) was quite nice to use on a day-to-day basis. While it has all of the perks of a laptop, like a dedicated keyboard, large display, comfortable form factor and more, it is actually more like a big Android smartphone with enhanced multitasking abilities.

The Acer Chromebook 314 is a return to the principles that made Chromebooks so appealing to many people when they first arrived. You won’t find expensive displays, quad-core processors or touchscreens here, but what you have is a cheap device with excellent battery life that can help kids do their homework, families organise their lives, and pretty much all the basics that most people want most of the time. It’s also lightweight and acts like a proper laptop rather than some weird hybrid. Old-school, with modern aesthetics and performance.

14.00":

Above all, this display size is used for subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles. For all three types, this size is quite large. The biggest variety of subnotebooks is represented with this size.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.

1.7 kg:

This weight is typical for very big tablets, subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles with a 11-13 inch display-diagonal.

Acer: The company was founded under the name of Multitech in Taiwan in 1976 and renamed to Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors and televisions. Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell also belong to the Group and sell their own laptops.

While Acer still had the third largest global market share in the notebook segment in 2008, it ranked 6th in 2016 with a market share of 6% after they had continuously lost market shares.

There are dozens of Acer laptop reviews per month, the ratings are average (as of 2016). Gateway, which has an own laptop line-up, has also belonged to the Acer Group since 2007.

80%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.
