The Acer Chromebook Spin 311 is another sub-$300 silver Chromebook in a market swimming with them. That makes it hard to justify, especially compared to something like the Lenovo Duet, which does what the Spin 311 does better in many areas, and is even cheaper. The saving grace is the Spin 311’s keyboard, which is truly excellent. It’s not as good as the best laptop keyboards, but the fact that an 11.6-inch Chromebook is even in the discussion should speak volumes. The battery life is solid, too, and although performance isn’t great, it’s enough to handle light, day-to-day tasks.

80% Acer Chromebook Spin 311 review: The little Chromebook that could
Source: Android Central
As a budget-minded Chromebook, the newest version of the Spin 311 may be light on ports, but the MediaTek processor gives it truly all-day battery life while still having just enough power for schoolwork, light work, and casual computing. Since it lacks a microSD slot, I highly recommend buying the 64GB model.

80% Acer Chromebook Spin 311 review: An easy choice for most people
Source: Android Authority
The Acer Chromebook Spin 311 is a fine little machine. It's not a top performer, but it's not setting out to be. It delivers on its promise of solid everyday performance and killer battery life. If you need something simple to use around the house or give the kids, the Spin 311 makes a lot of sense.

Acer Chromebook Spin 311 (CP311-3H) review – two days of battery life thanks to the ARM SoC
Source: Laptop Media
At the end of the day, we are a little disappointed with this notebook. Yep, you have everything you need from this tablet-replacement, but when compared to its predecessor – the Chromebook Spin 311 (CP311-2H), we got a lot lower performance – both in the CPU and the GPU department. Of course, if you mainly use Docs and Spreadsheets, this shouldn’t really bother you. But if you value speed and low latency, then you might want to divert from this unit.

11.60":

This screen diagoal is quite large for tablets but small for subnotebooks. Some convertibles are also represented with that 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.

1.05 kg:

In former time,s this weight was typical for big tablets, small subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles with a 10-11 inch display-diagonal. Nowadays, often 15 inch laptops weigh as much.

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.

77%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.
