Acer Aspire 5 Slim Laptop, 15.6 Full HD IPS Display, AMD Ryzen 5 3500U, Vega 8 Graphics, 8GB DDR4, 256GB SSD, Backlit Keyboard, Windows 10 Home, A515-43-R5RE, Silver

I replaced an11 year laptop with this and I am impress with the difference.

This laptop is great. Just what we needed for a work at home job, and for general use through other day. Battery life seems impressive, no issues with it at all.

Super fast, my son plays all his games on this and there is no lag. Its fast and perfect for him to do all his school work and be able to play his games like Roblox and Steam. Everything loads super fast. This is a great laptop for the money !

At first I was hesitant buying a laptop off of amazon but I have been more than pleasantly surprised. This laptop is a beast for the money. So far no lag at all, great screen colors, camera is fine, mic is fine, not the loudest speakers in the world but unless you plan on using it outside it should never be a problem. I am super happy with this purchase because besides no touchscreen, this keeps up with my $1200 lenovo and the keyboard on this feels waaayyyy better!

The performance is good. Will upgrade RAM to 16GB. Display is very nice. Sound OK. Keypad could have been better. Battery backup is good.

Havent tried it for gaming but runs several tabs pretty easy. I bought a similar model before but needed a new one and right away went with the acer aspire. Its the best budget laptop out there to me.

I have had the laptop for just over 4 months, good thing I bought the 3 year warranty. Either hard drive failed or operating system, cant restore to factory. Only had installed Adobe Creative cloud on it and used Illustrator and photoshop many creations lost. Acer had me send it to a repair center in San Jose that doesnt exist any longer, just got the laptop back Friday to send to a different Acer repair shop. Have been without a working unit for over a month. Hopefully this time it gets repaired. Amazon has been very helpful in getting service.

PROS:

Very annoying... I think if I knew this I would not have choosen it. Unable to change the settings.

PC died in less than 2 years and is outside of warranty. I highly recommend you do not buy Acer as, apparently, their laptops are known for dying like this (getting stuck on loading screen).
