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.

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

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.

this was a great laptop to game on it runs games like valorant and grand theft auto very well, and is very good for listening to music and just doing work on it

This is a great laptop for general computing (internet, word processing etc). It is lightweight, starts up quickly, and has a great screen. I highly recommend this model if you are on a budget and need a solid laptop at a great price.

This laptop has the perfect specs for school. I wanted a strong laptop processor from light programming that wouldnt break the bank. The screen is a beautiful IPS with minimal glare!

I was hoping to use the ram and hard drive from my laptop that just died, I was able to install a stick of ram giving me a total of 20 gigs. I was pleased to see that a hard drive caddy was included in the box, along with hardware and wire for installing a hard drive, but once I had everything in place, where the hard drive is plugged into the motherboard, theres no plug, just solder marks where it should be. The 4300 model doesnt have this aparently, but the higher end ones do. I am upset because the page says that a second hard drive can be attached, this is a problem with amazon listing 3 similar products on the same page and just trusting the seller, but Im also upset with Acer, why in the world is all this extra hardware included in the box if I cant use it?! Im past the return date, and to be honest there isnt another pc in this price range that performs as well, so Ill drag an external drive with me. Over all I am pleased with the pc, screen is kinda dim, when on battery its even dimmer even when pumped to max brightness. Plays a lot of games pretty well, older games she handles like a champ, modern games turned down to medium or low yields playable 30-40 fps. I just wish I could install my hard-drive internally.

Do not have touch screen otherwise it fits my needa

I purchased this laptop in Dec of 2020. It was kept in pristine temperature regulated conditions. By July 2021, the laptop would not turn on. This is way below acceptable life span. I also haven’t been able to get Acer to respond to the issue. I really regret this purchase and hope others are not victims of this poor product.
