SelmaTeacher7, Mr Berry here, today we're going to be looking at the Acer
Chromebook 315, which is a 15.6 inch Chromebook we're
going to be comparing that to the Acer Chromebook 511 which I had
done a quick review of a few weeks ago
and if you want to look at that review i'll
have a link up there at the top we can actually click and actually look
at that video but today we're going to be doing a quick unboxing of the
315 looking at the specifications and then comparing those specifications
to the 511 so let's get started with the video hey
so i found the acer chromebook 315 i found that one at
a series certified for 205 dollars but you find it brand new at acer.com for
only 219. so you can get it there brand new and as
a terrific price for a 15.6 inch chromebook now the actual
model number that you find on the bottom of the unit is right there
i'm going to be showing the specifications during the first part of
the unboxing so let's get this thing opened for
specifications we're looking at auto update expiration date
all the way to june 2026 so this machine will be receiving
updates from the chrome operating system until june 2026
for the CPU we're looking at Intel Celeron N4000
running at 1.1 gigahertz which is actually fast enough to be
doing things such as video editing and that's how I use mine
it comes with four gigs of ram and 32 gigs of storage
you can upgrade the storage by putting in a micro SD card
onto the side inside the box right away we find the ac/dc adapter
now this comes with a USB type-c plug so that's very convenient inside we find
some nice packaging and look at this this is a really nice
padded carrying case that this Chromebook comes in and it's
padded all the way around so it's really premium looking let me
zip it open here and see what's inside and there's our Chromebook
this is the Acer CB315 in the front there very nice move lines
on the left hand side we see it has the USB
type c USB type a SD micro card slot and audio port
on the right hand side we see USB type a USB
type c and a Kensington Security Slot. Now I'm opening it up for the very first
time right out of the box without even plugging it in
and it feels very sturdy and has wow look at that it already boots up
pretty much instantly that's what we always expect out of a chromebook
so the very first time that you do turn it on you want to have it plugged in
and as you see here it boot up to the chrome splash screen
after that you should see where it says let's go
unfortunately the this one does not have a touch screen so you have to use the
mouse or mouse pad there that's in front connect to your
network by clicking on yours and then you need to put in the
passcode or the password that you use for your wi-fi network
after that click on connect
and then it will be connecting to your network after that click on accept and
continue for the terms of service it will check
for any updates and then you can check in
and sign in to your chrome account you can do that by
using your email address and then after that you need to put in your password
for your google account and click on next
click on accept and continue after says you're signed in
and then you have the google play services go ahead and click on accept
next you'll be loading the assistant click on continue
now click on i agree
in this way you'll actually recognize your voice and you can do voice commands
with your Chromebook now click on done and then click on
accept and then click on get started
and there you go you're already at the desktop now
in the next few minutes it will be downloading installing all of your
applications and other things that you use on your other Chromebook
as you can see here as I click on the app launcher and the carrot
you can already see the apps being installed now
so it's that easy to get set up with your chromebook
now let's compare the 511 with the 315. here's the 511 it comes with 11 inch
touchscreen and a nice stylus now the stylus really
comes in handy at certain times when you're using it as
a tablet you can use the 511 as a nice low laptop
machine there and do your work there it does come with a nice touch screen so it
does work in either configuration and it has a
touchpad and the keyboard feels very good and responsive to the
touch the magical thing about the 511 is you can fold it
all the way back and use it as a tablet with the stylus and click
in there and print in whatever you want and it actually print in letters here so
I'll write in
space.com and it actually recognizes and it did
type in space.com so so if you're a person who likes to
print letters with a pen this is a stylus and it works
beautifully so i actually read all my letters and put it up there
so that's really handy this is beautiful because it works as a tablet
and as a chromebook laptop so we can close it up there when you do
that the screen rearranges itself into the laptop
setting there works great now let's look at the 315
so one big difference is of course is this
larger screen this is a 15.6 inch screen you open it up and right away you notice
that it's instead of being a glossy finish as you
saw in the 511 the 315 has a matte finish so this would
work well if you had bright lights behind you and you didn't have a glare
that's nice touchpad is very responsive and works very well
and the keyboard feels very good into the fingers and
actually comes with a 10 key keypad on the side which is kind of unique
for a Chromebook so if you're looking for a more traditional Chromebook
as a laptop the 315 has you covered if on the other hand
you're looking for one that can work as a tablet be very versatile to
handwriting and all that then the 511 is your Chromebook hey if you like these
