Acer Chromebook Plus 515 Review

Acer Chromebook Plus 515 Review – By Eric Grevstad PCM
Can we just forget about $199 Chromebooks now? Yes, they had dim, dinky, fuzzy screens and barely enough memory and storage—even for ChromeOS’s modest needs—and sufficed only for school kids, but they’re so seven years ago. Google’s new Chromebook Plus campaign brings cutting-edge software features to laptops with five times better hardware starting at only twice the price—$399.99, which is the MSRP of the Acer Chromebook Plus 515 seen here.

For a Chromebook that refused to go on sale for a long time after it launched last fall, the Lenovo Slim 3i Chromebook Plus has now enjoyed one of the longest continued sale prices we’ve ever seen on any Chromebook at this point. Dating all the way back to February 19th, this excellent Chromebook has been discounted by at least $175 and has only become more affordable as the days go on.

You know, I beat around the bush a lot when talking about which of the current crop of Chromebooks is my favorite, but deep down I’ve known which one holds that title. The Acer Chromebook 516 GE has been a faithful companion at the office, on the road, and on vacations for well over a year for me at this point, and every time I return to it, I’m reminded of how great it is to use.

While it would be fun to one day write a post about all current-gen Chromebooks being on sale all at once, this isn’t quite that. Still, there are a wild number of devices being sold on a discount this week, and some of those deals are even hold-overs from last week. The Chromebook deals available to any potential buyers are vast and still all available as we march into the weekend.

We purchased this Asus chromebook for our middle schooler to start the 7th grade. From our perspective, we believe this chromebook was an excellent value based on its price and features. Best Buy had a Labor Day sale and we purchased this chromebook for under $300 (retail was $499). We researched other comparable chromebooks from HP, Dell, Lenovo and Acer. However, this Asus chromebook was the clear winner in terms of its feature.

Of all the Chromebook Plus models released in the fall of 2023, the Lenovo Slim 3i Chromebook Plus is my clear favorite.

As we enter President’s Day weekend, I figured we’d see a few early deals pop up this morning since this week has been relatively light on them. And with a quick search, I wasn’t disappointed. I love a great, affordable, sub-$300 Chromebook just like the next guy, but I also love seeing some of the greatest, most-powerful, best-built Chromebooks get massive price cuts, too. And that’s exactly what is going down right now.

Big Chromebook Plus, even bigger savings

The Chromebook Plus deals space is a shifty one these days. It almost has the feel of watching a basketball game where players are brought on and off of the bench as the game goes on. One week we’ll have one lineup, and the next we’ll see it all change. That has most definitely been the case this week as nearly all the Chromebook and Chromebook Plus models that were on sale a week ago have gone back to full price while multiple others have tumbled down once again.

When it comes to Chromebooks, the market has dictated our pricing categories a bit over the past few years to basically fall in a few ranges: affordable, mid-range, and “high end”. Things aren’t exactly the way they were before the pandemic, and I don’t know that we’ll go back. We now have sub-$300 affordable devices, $300-$700 mid-range devices, and high end that sit right around $700. But that ceiling – by popular demand – hasn’t gone far above the $699 mark in the past couple years apart from a couple specialized devices.
