Acer Chromebook 13
The Acer Chromebook 13 CB5-311 series was introduced in late 2014 and is Acer’s first 13 inch Chromebook.
It is also the first Acer Chromebook to use an ARM based processor, the Nvidia Tegra K1. The Tegra K1 is a 4-core processor that runs at 2.1 Ghz and features an advanced integrated graphics processor. While this processor may look better on paper than the Celeron processor in the Acer Chromebook 11, real-life performance is roughly the same.
This Chromebook series comes with both 1366x768 and 1920x1080 full-HD screen options as well as 2 GB and 4 GB models. The Chromebook’s basic LCD screen is quite nice, but lacks the brightness and viewing angles of modern IPS screens like those found in the Toshiba Chromebook 2. You will find all the standard ports on here, USB 2 and 3, HDMI, an audio/microphone jack and SD card reader.
The Acer Chromebook 13 CB5-311 is a good entry-level Chromebook for those looking for good performance and a bit larger screen than traditional 11 inch models. At 3.31 pounds, it’s still light enough to keep you mobile, and with a list price starting at $249, you really can’t go wrong.
