  • Great Laptop with virtually no negatives
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 4000-Series Style: Notebook only
Writing this review from this laptop, overall very satisfied, and this is coming from someone with a very powerful desktop computer (5800X3D, RTX 3080). CPU: The Ryzen mobile processors are absolutely insane, they outperform intel in raw performance and somehow also use less power. Ryzen also usually has significantly better integrated graphics. This processor will easily take anything the average person throws at it, including dozens of chrome tabs, email, music, movies, etc. SSD: This laptop is astonishingly fast to boot. It rivals my desktop which is an 8 core 16 thread beast with ram that is about 50% faster, and a boot SSD roughly twice as fast. Yet somehow boots as fast or faster. I don't have nearly the amount of random software on the laptop but still. You won't be disappointed in load times. RAM: Admittedly 8GB may be on the low side, but this is not aimed at gamers or productivity so I cant exactly count off for that. What I can say is that having upgradeable RAM is a huge plus, I added another 8GB stick for a total of 16GB. While I haven't tested personally, from what I've seen online in gaming is that making the RAM dual channel roughly doubles FPS. which is insane performance gain for about $40. One downside is the RAM is a bit slow at 2400mhz, and since the original 8GB is soldered on you will never get the ram any faster unfortunately. GPU: as for as integrated graphics go, this is pretty darn good, for anything other than gaming, it can handle with ease. for gaming, it can handle just about any 2D or indie game, things like binding of isaac, mario, minecraft, terraria, etc. For 3d stuff don't expect a miracle. Its capable, but this is a laptop with no discrete GPU were talking about. for what its worth I played a lot of 'Ty the Tasmanian Tiger' on it and it ran med settings 1080p locked at 60fps. War thunder gets 40fps at min 1080. Thermals: Holy moly, I always expected laptops to run hot, but this thing somehow manages to be insanely cool. Idle is usually under 50-60 and gaming is usually 60-70. the max is about 105, but will throttle around 80 I think. I even have it on top of blankets sometimes and if the load isn't too heavy its still fine. The fan is also nearly silent which is impressive given its a centrifugal fan which are typically loud. After first turning it on, its nearly ambient temperature for a few minutes which is amazing. Construction: The all metal chassis is awesome, Its not particularly light, the weight is listed so you can compare to similar laptops, but I don't think its unnecessarily heavy. I can lift it with one hand from the corner and not worry about it bending. I can also press really hard and not feel in bend in. It also of course is more resistant to scratches, spills, etc and feels nice than plastic. it will also help a bit with heat dissipation. Edit: I scratched the cover next to the touch pad rather easily. The costing is silver and the scratch is black so it's very noticeable. Doesn't bother but worth noting. I also broke the hinge. The left side hinge broke but it was very easy to take apart and I just threw in a butt load of glue lol Screen: Its ehh. there's nothing wrong with it, but its a generic 1080p IPS screen. Colors are average, black is average. though it does have a lot of that color shift when you press on the screen but that's pretty irrelevant. The bezels are pretty small too Keyboard: They are clearly membrane keys. They don't feel super satisfying, but its not bad. Its also backlit which is nice. and the key tops feel pretty good, just a good mixture of smoothness without being slippery. I also enjoy having an actual numpad along with a few extras like, delete, insert pg up/dn, etc. the Function keys also have all the standard laptop functions like disabling touchpad, brightness, keyboard backlight, etc. Webcam: its good, not amazing but the resolution is definitely good enough. Battery: unfortunately I cant give any accurate estimates for battery life. I ironically have it on the charger a lot. and I also do some gaming and stuff that isn't indicative of normal use. I can say these Ryzen APUs are pretty efficient though. Edit: the battery is pretty good. I don't usually use it for long periods. But I watch Netflix on it occasionally and it lasts probably several hours on a charge I/O: pretty darn good. 4 USB ports, with 2 being 3.0, 1 being 2.0, and 1 type C 3.1. they're also on both sides if you like having cables on certain sides. Also has ethernet, full size HDMI, 3.5mm aux, power in and Kensington lock. 1 Thing I wish it had was being able to be powered through the USB C port. Not a huge deal, some laptops accept it, but I understand its actually a complicated thing to implement, as the USB C port would need to both be a power in and out, depending on what's plugged in. no micro SD reader, minor inconvenience, USB adapters exist. Software: Acer has pretty minimal bloatware it seems. it has "Acer Care Center" which actually seems pretty useful. has a myriad of PC health and monitoring tools. Upgrades: As previously mentioned I added more RAM, helps a lot. and it was very very easy. Other than the annoying amount of screws on the back, the RAM is easy to upgrade. However the SSD was not! unfortunately the factory screws in all the internal screws insanely tight. To plug in a 2.5" SSD you have to remove the WIFI card to access the SSD port underneath. Trying to unscrew the WIFI card was a nightmare. no matter how hard I tried I could not unscrew it without it stripping. This was with atleast 50 pounds of weight on this screw. I tried various tricks like a rubber band pressed into the slot and super glue over night. nothing would work. I even bought a screw extractor and that didn't work. In the end I took a drill bit and drilled out the screw. which sadly destroys the screw and threads, I then Installed the SSD and used a rubber band to hold the wifi card in place :) Another small negative is that there isn't any physical notch between the screen and bottom piece so when its closed its not super easy to open, you kinda have to wedge a finger in it. After 2 years it's still great! ... show more

  • It's impressive!
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 4000-Series Style: Notebook only
I received mine just a couple of days ago but I love this little machine! I had been using an Acer Aspire with an Intel i3 processor previously, the same laptop that my son has. Unfortunately his took a bath in a large glass of Orange Juice and so we had an issue to deal with. So I bought this one and he is now using my old one. It's still a nice machine for him with the upgrades I had done. So the first thing I did after verifying that my new laptop did in fact work right out of the box was to turn it over and take the back off of it. I then added a stick of DDR4 RAM to up it to 16GB. I also installed a 2TB 2,5" SSD in the bay (nice of Acer to include the hardware). I do wish this machine had come with a larger M.2 SSD but I can live with the 256GB. These days adding external storage is relatively inexpensive and I own the Oyen Digital Mobius Pro External Drive Enclosure so storage isn't a problem. I also miss the optical drive but own several desktop burners and will just add one to an enclosure and connect via USB. I'm not a gamer so I can't comment on the display for gaming but I have found it to be plenty good for watching movies. I have watched a few and the display is an upgrade over my old laptop. The speakers on this suck as they all do but I connect to my desktop DAC/Tube Amp/Speakers/Headphones so no concern about the onboard sound. I haven't found any problems with the track pad but prefer to use a mouse. The keyboard is responsive and feels nice to the touch but I have ordered a silicone keyboard protector which I know I will love because my wife has one on hers and it's really nice. I also ordered a protector for the trackpad hoping to keep it from developing wear spots from my fingers as I will use it from time to time. The location of the various connections is ideal for me as the headphone jack is in a better location that previously and I run that out to my DAC at the desktop. The ethernet cable connects on the opposite side as well so I no longer have both ethernet and RCA to deal with on the right hand side where I need to route it around to the other side. And I had to make certain that any laptop I considered even HAD an ethernet cable jack because I saw several which didn't. You might want to be aware of that, too. All in all I am really digging on this machine. It offers me all that I could hope for in a lightweight, attractive, well built package. I think one could do far worse! ... show more

  • Amazing laptop
CPU: Ryzen 5 3500U Style: Laptop Only
I had an Acer laptop purchased in 2012, and it had intel dual-cores system. It was probably too old because my old Acer laptop took at least 3 minutes to start setting up desktop and to complete whole process. Anyway, let me share my thoughts about this one--Acer Aspire 5. It's a completely different and amazing laptop I've ever had! 1) Price. The new Acer Aspire 5 I purchased has an affordable price, compared to the other sellers on Amazon, who offer the Acer Aspire 3 that costs more than this one. I don't understand why. This Acer Aspire 5 only costs around 516 dollars before tax when I placed my order. Price is reasonable and affordable. 2) System. I love this laptop so much because it has AMD Ryzen 5 quad-cores processor. This is amazing and better than the old Acer I bought in 2012 (intel processor). First, the Aspire 5 completes opening process within 30 seconds. Second, I can have multiple tasks running at the same time. It processes my tasks very efficiently. However, there is one aspect I don't really like, which is function key F1-F12. This issue happens when you are playing games. However, this issue is not related to the laptop itself. I just google how to enter BIOS setting to change function key setting. REMEMBER: the new window 10 system doesn't allow you to enter BIOS setting by hitting F2 repeatedly. Just google how or go to Acer official website for further information. Also, one aspect that annoys me is related to window 10 system set-up. OMG! It takes forever to ask me personal information and to give Microsoft permission to track your computer, to help you get updated information, etc... Microsoft also needs you to purchase Office software, lol. Right now I don't have any issues so far; even if there might be some confusions, I have Acer backed up. This Acer Aspire 5 is absolutely amazing. Love it! ... show more

  • An easy upgrade makes it much better
CPU: Ryzen 5 3500U Style: Laptop Only
I bought this computer as a family computer to replace an aging desktop. The desktop had a Gen 4 Intel Core I7, and a non-SSD hard drive. This computer is sooo much faster! It boots up super fast and everything is super peppy and responsive. However with lots of people using it and leaving software and browser tabs open, it quickly runs out of RAM. 2 of the 8 gigs of RAM are reserved for the video card, this can't be changed. Once the RAM starts to get full, it gets very sluggish. Like it would take a half second from when I typed a character until it showed up on the screen. Sometimes I could type multiple words without any visual response and then they would all show up at once. It turns out this version of the computer comes with a single 8-gig stick of RAM. I opened up the back (there are tutorials on YouTube, it just takes a phillips screwdriver and a guitar pick or credit card) and took a picture of the RAM stick, and then bought an identical stick for $35. If you are the only user and you keep your tabs to a minimum you might not need to do it, but RAM actually works faster with 2 sticks than one, so it is a very nice optimization. For me I would consider this computer to cost $535, plus a tiny bit of elbow grease. At that price it is a very good value for a super slick new laptop. I should also point out that it was incredibly easy to install the RAM, and it looks like it would be very easy to replace the SSD. There is also a big space that I think is for a mobile hard drive (traditional form factor not M2), and the battery appears to be replaceable with just a few screws. ... show more

  • Unexpectedly great.
CPU: Ryzen 5 3500U Style: Laptop Only
I bought this thing because I had gotten to the point where charging my old one was just becoming a hassle. I ... I'll spare you the details of the old one. I needed a new one, so I looked at what Google said the best computers under $600 were. I saw the rankings, looked around to see, decided on this one after comparing a few things, and I only have one gripe; I have to relearn the keyboard because there's an entire number pad to the right that wasn't on my old one, and it makes me have to relearn my station a little every time I go to place my fingers on the keyboard. Obviously this is nothing in the scheme of things, and doesn't even really count as a gripe. The computer itself... fast. SO fast, especially compared to my last one. I used to have this routine where I would turn the computer on in the morning so I could start the day (homework and all that), then go to the coffee maker, get that going, come back, hopefully it would be ready for me to log in, log in if it is, go back, get the laundry going, grab my cup of coffee and sit down and only have to wait another minute or two for the computer to finish starting up. With this one... I click the button and have no time to lift a cheek off the couch before it wants my password. I type it in, and it's booted and ready before I can take a sip of my coffee. I'm legitimately amazed at how good the picture quality is, how fast it is in general, and how very little time is spent waiting on it to process my typically-simple orders. Even the intense work is done in no time. I keep music playing, I do tons of graphic work, I have videos and classes and all kinds of stuff, and this thing handles it all like a champ. 10/10, would buy again in a heart beat. ... show more

  • Great zippy laptop that’s easy to upgrade
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 4000-Series Style: Notebook only
Great zippy laptop that’s easy to upgrade. Boots quickly, has a nice screen, and is very responsive. I was hesitant to buy this because of the difficulty in finding details about the RAM, but trusted the other reviews and was glad I did. I purchased the 4500U with integrated graphics A515-44-R41B. It has 8 GB of RAM (2400) on board with an open SoDIMM Slot. I added a 1TB ssd and it was very straightforward following the acer installation video online. The ssd support bracket is included with the laptop. I did have some instability issues while trying to update windows, blue screens with various error reports. Restores failed so I ended up reinstalling windows and updating the firmware before proceeding with the windows updates. It’s been fine for the past few days since doing that. ... show more

  • Great budget laptop that sacrifices build quality for performance.
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 4000-Series Style: Notebook only
For just under $600($560 for the laptop + $30 for an stick of ram), I have a ryzen 5 4500u with 16gb of ram(I put an extra 8 gb stick in mine). This machine is very capable and snappy. I don't care too much about build quality, so the high end cpu for a low price was a no brainer. It can run some games, but don't get your hopes up(platformers and esports titles should fare just fine). Battery life surprised me(5-7 hours of moderate work), and was able to handle 10+ tabs of chrome without breaking a sweat. For working/schooling from home, the 15.6 inch display is nice and crisp, but suffers from a not so bright max brightness(which is livable as long as you aren't outside). In addition, acer included the mounting bracket and sata cable so you can add a 2.5 inch ssd whenever you need more storage in your machine. I did have to remove quite a bit of bloat ware, but it didn't take too long. Overall, I am very happy, as the performance is well worth the price, just make sure to buy a second stick of ram for this laptop, as ryzen performs much better in dual channel. ... show more

  • Best Laptop for Under $1,000
CPU: Ryzen 5 3500U Style: Laptop Only
I have been doing IT work for almost 10 years and if anyone asks for a laptop recommendation I send them a link to this laptop. It is great for general laptop use, not tested for intensive gaming or computation, but based on the processor and graphics card, it would do basic gaming and small render type work just fine. Battery life is great, snappiness is impressive, and sleekness is inspirational. Only complaint is the speaker loudness and quality, but my $2,000 laptop also has this flaw. For anyone buying a laptop under $1,000, this is the best choice. Depending on the brand and specific laptop, you may be better off with this one than other $1,500 options, even. My grandpa uses it for general tasks, a friend’s kid uses it for school, my father in law uses these in his medical office, and other countless friends and acquaintances/customers have used it. All have been thoroughly impressed, especially for the price point. Anyone looking to spend only $400 or $500 should consider spending a tad extra to get this one, since it offers so much more and is much better prepared for future needs. This is all referring to the Ryzen 5 3500U, Vega 8, 8 GB RAM option. Only downside is speaker, and everything else is amazing. Buy it ;) ... show more
