Reviews for the Acer Chromebook 315 CB315-4HT
Source: Mezha EN
The Acer Chromebook 315 (CB315-4HT) is an affordable laptop for basic work and study. It has a neutral design and a nice IPS touchscreen display with accurate colour reproduction but a rather narrow colour gamut. The laptop has a good set of connectors and a full-size keyboard with an additional number pad. Among the complaints about the hardware, given the laptop's class, we can note the mediocre battery life. This is surprising, given the energy-efficient processor and lightweight OS. And the lack of keyboard backlighting, which is available in more affordable models. If we look at the laptop from the point of view of the operating system, Chrome OS is suitable only for working with documents, video calls, and other simple tasks. More serious software is only available on Windows or macOS. And, given the price, there are competitors on Windows that have more memory, more powerful processors, fingerprint scanners, and a backlit keyboard.

The Acer Chromebook 315 is an affordable and competent machine, but it’s so readily beaten by competitors like the cheaper Lenovo 5i Chromebook, or discounted Windows machines, that we see little reason to recommend it over what's already in our buying guide to the best Chromebooks. While the Chromebook 315 isn't a complete letdown in everyday use, it will likely start to show its age much sooner than rivals. Instead, look to the Lenovo 5i Chromebook for a Chrome laptop that nails the basics and then some for less than $500—or even Acer's own 500 series of Chromebooks for a bit more cash.
