Aw man! I put so much effort into researching this purchase. It gets here. I take it out of the box, plug in the power cord and what!? The thing didnt connect securely. What a disappointment. So I repackaged it and shipped it back. That was 5 days ago. Still awaiting my refund.

This is a great computer at this price point very fast I am impressed with the display sharp crisp clear set up easy a few minor bloatwear that needed to be removed otherwise its perfect running very smoothly quality product Recommend this seller

This was the best option for its money. Everything works as explained. Couldn’t find any defects for now. Strong and fast. Happy with the purchase.

Acer is #1 brand for everyday laptops in $500 price range. I bought this for my parents to replace their desktop. Always a good buy. Acers are easy to use (and update), dependable, & have sleek yet sturdy (but not too heavy) design for laptops @ 15”+ size .

I only have it for a day now but Im a heavy Laptop user and it has been a great experience so far. I would note that the touchpad is too far to the left and me being right handed it is a bit difficult

Personal information

I purchased this in May of 2021. It is now July 2022. Depite the low volume issue as others have stated it is fixable adding a speaker. The main reason for the 1 star is that no matter what fix is applied, this laptop constantly loses connectivity. It will usually reconnect on its own in a few seconds. But at times takes longer. It has gotten really annoying. I had an Acer 7R that was a bit slower but there were never connectivity issues.

I bought this laptop for my son, who is starting his college adventures.

When you buy a computer do you think about inspecting the keyboard? Arent all keyboards universal? Dont you have an expectation of what you will get when you order a full sized keyboard? Well, give that thought up. The keyboard is close and crowded. The number pad is 1/3 the size it should be. I mean tiny!! The decimal key has been replaced by and enter key and the decimal is now in the bottom center of the keypad. Ever seen that? Every number pad operator in the world knows the pinky pushes the decimal. Not on this one!! Also, they removed the home key which I use all the time in Excel. To get HOME you have to turn off the number lock, hit the 7 key then turn the number pad back on to continue entering #s. Yep, that is not a full size standard keyboard at all and they dont care. The response from the seller was look at the picture. I cant return it and I cant live with this for the next 3-4 years. This was my 3rd and my last acer.

Crashed multiple times trying to boot. Returned for refund
