While the product may have worked properly, not knowing how to manufacture keys with the proper letter on it makes me doubt the rest of the product’s quality.

I have had this computer for less than 3 months and not even finish making payments on it and the screen went black and it already needs a new motherboard. my repair man pointed out how cheaply made the parts were and how the recycled material breaks down faster than normal computers. A black screen issue should happen at the end of a computer life cycle not in two months and Amazon wont replace it so buyer beware. This computer is not a stable machine. Pick something else.

Update: Opened it up, today 3/2/2023. Found out that it is pretty simple inside. A Kingston NVME which is good, though no dram cache, and I also found a very very beefy cooler though there is a caveat. Normally, a cooler contacts the onboard iGPU as well as the cpu, but there was no contact with the iGPU and the plate was cut to avoid it. I think the design, which has solder points for a embedded graphics card, with two ram chip spots, a gpu socket, and power delivery traces on the board, was meant to be routed over the embedded gpu. That would mean that the iGPU didnt need to be cooled. I was able to fix the lack of contact with a heat pad, I think a 0.5 thickness pad. It was not a high thermal transfer style, but anything thicker than 0.5 would cause a lack of contact with the CPU and thermal control would become a issue. The beefy cooler offers a dual fan setup, which is well made, and a lengthy fin array to dissipate heat delivered from two wide heat pipes that seem routed to perfectly go over where a embedded GPU would be. The whole thing is quite a stretch, but can easily keep the CPU cool, and that now include the iGPU which doesnt seem to be monitored by the motherboard.

I gave this laptop 4 stars because there are indeed a few things that I find lacking. But overall, its an excellent buy for the money. It was the best deal that I found at the time that had the major components I was looking for, which are, the most current i7 processor, adequate RAM, and solid state hard drive. The slight drawbacks are, the battery life. It doesnt last nearly as long as I would like it to when unplugged. Secondly the screen resolution, while not bad, is not as good as the portable monitors that I own that are of the same resolution and type. Lastly, one of the major exhaust vents is located just below the monitor on top of the keyboard. When its on, you, and everyone around you can hear it. Quite honestly, its annoying, but its not a deal breaker for me. Overall, this laptop is definitely a good buy for the money. I dont really care about all the environmentally friendly stuff. I honestly think thats more gimmick than it is anything else.

Everything looks good or at least so far looks good, but I have a question about the lettering on Keyboard.

I dont play games. This puppy is very good for office work, trading stocks and surfing. It is pretty darn fast and was a piece of cake to set up. YouTube videos look a lot better than a lot of peoples comments would have you believe. My wife wants one now. It was a fair price for a very good laptop

What impressed me the most Acer was one of the few to use an i7-1195G7 in a laptop within this price range and it remains cool & quiet. For work laptops I always avoided i7s due to the extra heat/fan noise, this is one area Acer pulled off with their very good cooling engineering. This is a nice balanced laptop which will fit the needs of a student & office work. The included travel sleeve provides basic protection.

Because of the Eco crap they reversed the letters on the e and r keys. That sometimes messes me up and I reverse the letters. The case looks like recycled crap plastic. It works fine but I wouldnt buy another one. I also dont like the layout of the number pad. The period and the zero are reversed and the slash is up too high.

The laptop is very fast with Core i7 CPU and 16 GB RAM and works great. One aspect that I do not like is that the ecological material is not what I expected. In the future I will see if the material is resistant.

This has worked out to be great productivity laptop for me. It performs pretty much as one would expect it to with the specs it has. It of course isnt a hardcore gaming machine, but it can play some games with reasonable settings. Its not loaded with bloatware other than what Microsoft has started including in windows. It does have some Acer specific update software, but I feel it is reasonable.
