Acer Aspire 5 Slim Laptop, 15.6 Full HD IPS Display, 8th Gen Intel Core i3-8145U, 4GB DDR4, 128GB PCIe Nvme SSD, Backlit Keyboard, Windows 10 in S Mode, A515-54-30BQ

Im an undergraduate student and I just use this laptop like any average college student would. Lots of word documents, power point presentations, Netflix and Youtube, online lab simulations, I use some science-y type programs (admittedly I dont really know anything about computer programs or computers so Im not sure how difficult these would be to run any laptop but this one works with them just fine). I really love this laptop. I honestly know jack-doodly about computers, which makes me really nervous to buy them, but this one does literally everything I need. Its very rarely slow, it has plenty of storage space for what I use it for, I like the matte screen, keyboard and mouse pad all work great. I do wish the screen got a little brighter but honestly its not that bad. I would highly recommend this laptop for anyone whos just looking for a solid laptop to do normal stuff with (I dont think this could handle serious gaming or big programs that require a lot of processing power but if you dont need those things its great. I do minimal gaming on it and it still works great for smaller games and Ive used ERDAS Imagine, ImageJ/FIJI, and a program to run simple R coding things for school which have all worked fine as well).

Ive been using the predecessor to this model, the Acer Aspire E5-575-33BM, for well over a year now and it has served me well. The 1 TB HDD that it came with was terrible, but after an easy upgrade that laptop has been quick and reliable.

Screen seems to have a loose connection and flickers until its in a favorable position

I love this laptop. Its sleek and lightweight. The backlit keyboard comes in handy when my kids are sleep and im doing homework. Its fast and perfect. I highly recommend this laptop

It was working fine and then a year later after I bought it, almost to the day, the mouse touchpad sensor stopped working. If I plug in an external mouse, that will work. But it is frustrating that the mouse touchpad no longer works. Its disappointing and I have already starter looking for a new laptop.

Great laptop for the money. Its just what I need.

I ordered this PC for my daughter and it was a major disappointment. Maybe I was expecting too much from a $400 PC? We sent it back.

Ok computer great for the price

This computer is perfect for basic needs, this wouldve been 5 stars, but mines came with a dead pixel so it gets pretty annoying, overall good product

Do not buy this. It is a waste of money. Have sent it in once already. Got it back. Lasted about 3 Hours worth of screen time. Display does not work. Again. Now they want me to send it in AGAIN. I understand once. After that it should be replaced and not required for me to send it in. I was told they would send a shipping label for my trouble. Really? How about a lap top that did leave me hanging. I bought is specifically to travel for work because the ap I need doesn’t run in a Mac — a real computer.
