I must say that as a laptop for internet surfing, for using Office applications and for listening to music / streaming this is an amazing laptop. By no means is high power, but feels smooth enough for the operations mentioned earlier. It is very easy to setup, just turn it on and follow the prompts and your account will be created. It comes with the S version of Windows which doesn’t allow you to install apps outside of the Microsoft store but it can easily be disabled to use the regular Windows. It is very lightweight but yet it feels durable. The screen quality is not bad at all and is pleasant enough to look at videos or even do light image editing. Speakers are not that bad, you can definitely use them to play some music while you are working, they will provide a good enough quality. This laptop is intent ended to be used with Co-Pilot so you have a dedicated button for it. The only downside that can be easily fix is that it comes with a 128 GB NVMe that you could easily replace with a 512GB / 1 TB if you want extra storage. Apart from that the laptop feels very fluid, doesn’t lags, so far no overheating issues and I think that for the money is a good productivity laptop. Definitely recommended.

I wasn’t really expecting a whole lot from a $300 plus laptop running an older AMD Ryzen chip and limited memory, both RAM and storage. Have to say I was pleasantly surprised. We currently have 3 computers in our home, a gaming pc, older desktop ( which I have upgraded a couple of times) and a Lenovo Legion gaming laptop. I know that comparing it to those computers is not fair, but will use them as my base. The Acer is a thin, lightweight laptop. It is so light I questioned whether it had a battery in it, it does. It has a nice selection of USB ports, 2 USB A 3.2 and 2 USB C 3.2 as well as an HDMI port and headset jack. There is no LAN port, but I did use a cable that supplied power and an Ethernet connection to a USB C port and it worked just fine. The screen is 15″ and has a nice crisp 1080 display. It has dual band WiFi 6 capability and supports Bluetooth 5.1 and above. I am not going to go into CPU specs since they have listed those specs and other reviewers have touched on that. The RAM and storage could be better, but it is a bit of a budget laptop and increases there would increase the cost as well. It comes with Windows 11 running in S mode. I ran it for a couple of days in S mode and was okay. You are limited to using the Edge browser and Microsoft store however. I disabled S mode, which is a permanent change, since I use Google play store and other browsers. It ran well, it booted up quickly and was pretty snappy overall. Great for surfing, YouTube videos and other day to day uses. I installed Steam and ran Batman Arkham Origins to see how it would handle it. I realize it is an older game but didn’t want to install something that would take up all the available storage. It actually ran pretty well. Frame rate was decent and it didn’t lag or hang. I may try something else a little more demanding in the future. If I do I will post and update. All in all I found it to be a good value for the money, the graphics are nice and the battery performed well. Acer makes good quality products and even though this is a budget model it still has that Acer quality and feel to it. I was really pleased overall with it and think it is a good choice for those wanting a decent laptop at a reasonable price. I give it 4 1/2 stars.
