Presented as the best value 11.6 inch Chromebook on the market, Acer 11 CB3-111-C670 is indeed a great value budget laptop with everything you may need for daily tasks as the third generation Chromebook with a very long battery life and fanless design but a slightly slower processor than the previous C720 but you probably won't even notice this small difference, and is on the market with a very low price tag.

Acer Chromebook 11 comes with dual core Intel Celeron N2830 processor at 2.16 Ghz speed up to 2.41 GHz with Intel Burst Technology, 2 GB DDR3L SDRAM for sufficient multitasking- being able to open several pages simultaneously at this entry level, 16 GB flash memory that helps with quicker boot-ups and instant waking up from sleep mode plus 100GB of Cloud based Google Drive storage that gives you a great deal of flexibility for free for two years and Google Chrome operating system that upgrades itself in the background automatically.

11.6 inch high definition Active Matrix TFT Color LCD anti-glare matte display with 1366x768 maximum pixel resolution and Intel HD graphics. It is not an IPS display so you don't get large viewing angles but anti-glare means you can work, play games or watch movies outdoors comfortably in sunlight. HD webcam with crisp and sharp images to connect with friends and family through video chat. Moonstone white Chromebook has a stylish and smart design, weighs just 2.43 pounds and measures 11.77 x 7.95 x 0.73 inches- very compact (slim and light) so you can fit in your bag or backpack easily.

And Chromebooks are no longer just for being used online either, there are many offline Google applications you can use it with, such as Google Docs. Especially recommended if you are on a very low budget as you'll be hard pressed to find anything better value at this very low price level.
