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

As a student on a tight budget, this laptop did more than enough in providing me with my basic needs, all at an extremely affordable price. The screen quality and chassis is great for the price point and the device did a good job for some light gaming. The weight of the laptop is decently light and it shouldnt be a problem for travel. Battery life also deserves a mention as it lasts for hours just like Acer has promised. Overall, this laptop does the job and is worth picking up if you dont want to spend over 1000$ on other alternatives

Had this laptop for about a month. It boots up very fast and runs my basic programs well. It only has 4GB RAM and I havent got around to upgrading it because I dont do gaming or watch videos. I have never used an AMD machine before, but the Ryzen 3 4300U is fast, quiet and efficient. Should have bought an AMD laptop or desktop much sooner.

Dont let other reviews lie. This is a great machine. It has a fantastic CPU and Video card.

me gusta el equipo para tareas basicas, lo que no tiene ningun sentido es que la caja traiga el adaptador para conectar un disco de 2.5 extra pero que la placa no traiga el conector respectivo para ser agregado, sinceramente no tiene sentido, nose si mi modelo será defectuoso o todas las placas vienen sin el conector para el flex del disco extra.

This laptop is now running perfectly and set up to exactly to my taste. But getting there was not so easy. I detest WIN 11 and will stay away from it as long as I can. So I was disappointed when this laptop came with Windows 11 installed despite the fact the description said Windows 10 Home. And the Windows 11 installation was almost useless because the start menu did not work nor did run. Researching this on the internet I found out this was a fault in a beta version of Windows 11 that should never have been installed. Fortunately my old laptop was still mostly functional so I made a USB Windows 10 installation thumb drive and did a clean Windows 10 installation. One way to get rid of any pre-installed Acer crapware or, I guess, anything useful that Acer loaded, but I am not sure what that would be. This laptop is running very well now. I am ready to use it 8 seconds after hitting the power button which is nice. Getting it to this point was a bit more than I had bargained for. The speaker volume was feeble, like my previous Acer but I knew how to be able to turn the volume up by installing an equalizer utility.

I Love my New Computer! Works fantastic! Very happy with my purchase!

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.

es una laptop para universitarios o de uso de hogar, tambien sirve para juegos casuales como league of leguends a buena resolucion y buenos fps, se siente muy premium y es muy bonita. la tengo desde hace dos dias, los 4gb de ram se quedan muy corto para el uso que le doy, ya ordene una ram de 8gb acer para hacer la ampliacion, actualizare mi review en unos dias luego de instalar la ram.

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.

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.
