Acer Aspire 5 A515-45-R1YC Slim Laptop | 15.6 Full HD IPS | AMD Ryzen 5 5500U Hexa-Core Mobile Processor | 8GB DDR4 | 256GB NVMe SSD | WiFi 6 | Backlit KB | Windows 10 Home

I am very impressed with the quality of the screen. Skin tones are wonderful Color is clear and crisp. I am very happy with the light up keyboard. Speed is so much faster than my old computer. I upgraded to Windows 11 and like it so far. I do a lot of viewing video casts and it is very nice for that.

Its a good size, but still light. Nice metal feel to the surface. Fast enough for what I need.

I bought it thinking that I would have to buy an HDD enclosure because of the comments I had read, where it said it did not come with the connector on the motherboard. I opened it just to verify this and was very surprised to see that it did come with this connector, so I was able to increase the internal storage. I assumed that in the new equipment the lack of the connector is corrected. I highly recommend this computer, it has a good processor and this type of SSD gives it a lot of speed. Im just waiting for a Ram that I bought to improve it, and that is the only annoyance I have, the 4gb of base ram that it brings are soldered to the board, so there is only one slot available to increase it.

I originally found this when it was around $350, now its over $400. The model I received has 4GB RAM soldered on the motherboard with the ability to go to 32GB, but obviously with the soldered RAM, the highest I could get it to was 20GB, for an additional $60.

Could not log in after just a couple days. Returned for refund, bought an HP Envy at Costco.

I needed to replace my 5 year old laptop that eventually died on me and it took quite a while to find a replacement I would be comfortable with. This laptop met all my needs because of its decent size (but low weight), processing power (thats great for 90% of all needs beyond high-end gaming or CS projects), and still being a good price.

Its good price.

I bought this for my wife to use and she really loves it. The keyboard lighting up is great, it has incredible picture quality, and is very easy to use. It does not have a DVD player but that is an almost useless feature today. I would recommend this unit to anyone who is looking for a good all around laptop for home use.

I was looking for a laptop that could work with Windows 11. Price was in my range. So far Im very happy with my purchase. I definitely had a list of specs. I wanted and this laptop meant my needs.
