Acer Chromebook Plus 515 Review

 

Low price ; Considerably improved ChromeOS ; Core i3 CPU and UFS storage perform like Core i5 and SSD ; Wide array of ports and 1080p webcam

Screen could be brighter ; Shallow, nonbacklit keyboard ; HDMI 1.4, not 2.0

Acer's Chromebook Plus 515 can't escape one or two compromises for its $399.99 price, but is genuinely impressive. Google's new Chromebook Plus platform stands head and shoulders above the previous generation.

Acer Chromebook Plus 515 review: A sturdy device that excels at productivity

 

Acer's Chromebook Plus 515 brings an impressive an amount of speed and performance for only $400

Temporal noise reduction was great ; Improved performance ; Speakers are upward-firing

No backlighting keyboard ; Only 250 nits of screen brightness ; Boring design

Acer Chromebook Plus 515 review: The Chromebook I'll recommend for most

 

If you want a Chromebook that has enough power for more demanding tasks, a big screen and doesn't break the bank, then the Chromebook Plus 515 from Acer is probably the one. The poster child for a new wave of Chromebooks.

Great build quality ; USB-C charging ; Stacked specs for the price

Sluggish trackpad ; 60Hz non-touch display

The Acer Chromebook Plus 515 fixes many of the issues of not only the Chromebook space but the budget laptop space as a whole. It succeeds in the brand’s mission of simplifying the buying process for a great productivity machine and takes steps to...

Acer Chromebook Plus 515 review: Simply put, it adds up

 

The suffix 'plus' has become ubiquitous in our era, but there is plenty that this $400 notebook adds to the ChromeOS realm.

Great performance-to-price ratio ; LPDDR5X and PCIe Gen4 memory ; Chromebook Plus features appreciated in a maturing ChromeOS ; Incredible value at the budget end of the spectrum

Could have come with a more modern power adapter ; 1080p webcam still just a webcam ; Okay spec lines stick with pricier configurations ; 6 hours of real-world use

Acer slides into the 15.6-inch space for an Intel-powered Chromebook Plus. Oddly enough, some SKUs of the Chromebook Plus 515 feature newer, faster PCIe storage than the AMD-toting Chromebook Plus 514.

Acer Chromebook Plus 515 review: a greater Google laptop

 

The Chromebook Plus initiative sets new standards for Google's laptop line. The Acer Chromebook Plus 515 doesn't skimp on power either

Powerful and long-lasting ; Sharp, colourful display ; Right amount of connections

Styling could be snappier ; No touchscreen

A welcome hardware step up for Chrome OS. If Chromebooks were a familiar sight at school, the Acer Chromebook Plus 515 will make the ideal everyday upgrade.
