Acer Aspire 5 Slim Laptop, 15.6 Inches FHD IPS Display, 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8265U, 8GB DDR4, 256GB SSD, Fingerprint Reader, Windows 10 Home, A515-54-51DJ

The only thing wrong with this computer is the heavy handed control from Microsoft .It constantly fights to keep you from using anything but Edge , Bing , and Norton . I had to have a computer expert help me get Google on and Norton off . Very frustrating . Otherwise love it !

This is my sons computer. He is a student and likes it well enough, but he bent the little prong on the charger that came with it and its been nearly impossible to find a decent replacement. Its turned into one of those quality of life issues that makes you want to cut your losses and buy a new computer. Acer does not sell one on their website. If you google the make/model, you find some kind of sketchy sellers you might not want to trust. There are some for sale on e Bay that fit, but not quite right, so that the battery warning (which you cant turn off) will beep constantly if you move it while its plugged up. Caveat Emptor!! PS if you have your heart set on this computer (September 2020), wait. I paid half of its current price ($695) last December. This is definitely not worth what theyre asking for it now.

This notebook works perfectly for my development needs. I really enjoy the fingerprint login function. I recommend this product.

I normaly dont write reviews but this problem was way too big to pass up.

I am not a computer guy, so you can take what I have to say with a grain of salt. Im an academic and Ive been using an 11 inch macbook for years for my classes and research. I like it because its light and easy to transport around. However, that means that its not a great device to watch streaming movies and TV on. I had an Acer Netbook in the past and really liked it, so I thought Id give this larger Acer a try. As mentioned above, I use this primarily for watching video. In fact, I left for a research trip shortly after it arrived and took it along for that purpose. Im glad I did. Streaming video looks great and the sound is pretty good, though perhaps not great. This is a great device for watching video on the go, and I would highly recommend it for that purpose. I only wish it had a DVD/Blu-Ray drive. Thats a minor complaint, however.

Big screen but bad lcd

Nice PC, volume is a bit low in my opinion

Been an Asus fan, couldnt resist the price on this at Black Friday, switched to buying this instead. Been four months, not regretting choice! Doesnt have bells and whistles, but it works smoothly. Battery lasts, Im charging just once a day. Lightweight because no dvd player, learning to live without it. Happy.

for the price , nothing to complain about.

good
