About the Acer Chromebook 311 11.6" HD Laptop Intel Celeron N4500

The Acer Chromebook 311 is an 11.6-inch Chrome OS laptop built around an Intel Celeron N4500, 4GB of LPDDR4X memory and 64GB of eMMC storage. It weighs 2.7 lb, has a fanless design, a matte 1366 x 768 screen and a rated 10 hours of battery life. Ports are unusually generous for the class: USB-C, USB-A, HDMI and a headphone jack. It suits students, browser-first users and a cheap second machine. Against pricier Chromebooks it gives up screen quality, memory and storage, but it matches them on boot speed and portability, and owners rate it well for everyday performance.

  • Battery lifePraisedReviewers report it lasting through a day of light use on the rated 10 hours.
  • MemoryCriticised4GB of RAM is called out as limiting when many browser tabs are open.
  • StorageCriticisedThe 64GB eMMC drive is described as filling up quickly, with no card reader to expand it.

Questions and answers

Is the Acer Chromebook 311 good for schoolwork?
Yes for Google Docs, Classroom, email and web research. It struggles with heavy multitasking or demanding web apps because of 4GB of RAM and a dual-core Celeron.
Can you upgrade the RAM or storage?
No. The 4GB of memory is soldered LPDDR4X and the 64GB eMMC is not user-replaceable. Plan on cloud storage and few open tabs.
Does it have HDMI and USB-C?
Yes. It has one USB-C port, one USB-A port, an HDMI output and a headphone jack, so it connects to a monitor or projector without an adapter.
How long does the battery last?
Acer rates it at 10 hours. Owners report close to a full day of browsing and documents, less with video streaming at high brightness.
Is the screen good for outdoor use?
The matte finish reduces glare, but the 1366 x 768 panel is not very bright. It is fine indoors and hard to read in direct sunlight.
Does it run Windows apps like Microsoft Office?
No. It runs Chrome OS, so you use web versions of Office and Android apps from Google Play. Desktop Windows software will not install.
