Reviews for the Acer Chromebook Plus 515 CB515-2H, i5-1335U

91% Acer Chromebook Plus 515: Is There Life on ChromeOS?
Source: Root Nation English
But let’s get back to the hero of my review – the Acer Chromebook Plus 515. I really liked it for its design, decent performance, and speed. As for the battery life, it’s top-notch. There can’t be any complaints about that. What was lacking? Perhaps, it was the absence of traditional USB ports. There are too few of them for such a device. Also, I wasn’t particularly impressed with the screen of the Acer Chromebook Plus 515. I wouldn’t say it’s outright bad, but it’s not very bright and lacks color saturation. Although at this price point, you can’t expect anything significantly better. The price is probably the main advantage of the Acer Chromebook Plus 515. Let’s be frank. For $720, Windows laptops don’t offer such technical and functional characteristics.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
