2022 Acer Aspire 5 15.6″ FHD IPS Slim Laptop,Computers and Laptops

i can’t play some games on steam like i used to

Worked fine right out of the box. Performs basic functions well: Internet, streaming, running Microsoft Office, HDMI/VPN setup (for streaming foreign television stations). It’s a very basic laptop, but that’s all I needed, so I’m quite pleased with it. The keyboard and trackpad work fine. It has the ports I needed (USB standard and USB C, HDMI, ethernet, sound jack). It’s light. It boots up quickly. Decent battery life. There’s not much onboard storage, but if you store most of your material on a USB stick or on Google Drive, who cares? If I want to watch DVDs on it, I can plug in and use an external drive. Sound isn’t very loud, but that’s what external speakers are for. It came with some apps I didn’t need, but it was easy to uninstall them. For four hundred bucks, it’s a great deal IMO. I’ve had it a month and a half and have no complaints. Oh, and I like Windows 11. It’s simple, intuitive and unintrusive. Better than 10, and of course so much better than Microsoft’s awul OS’s (Vista and the 8’s).

Given its price point it has performed very well. I have a couple concerns though. The mouse pad area is a bit tackier than I wanted so the finger doesn’t slide easily. It makes cut/paste difficult. The screen/case side flexes more than I expected and concerns me that it might not be very resilient. As others have said the battery life isn’t the best in the world but that was expected.

I’ve loved this lap top for the most part. Only a couple issues after a little over a year of online school use. The screen has started to separate from the outer layer where the screen folds down. Also, the volume doesn’t go very high but that hasn’t burdened me much.

After learning yo manuver (different from microsoft i had before) battery life terrible otherwise i like it

This is a good light weight fairly durable computer. Battery life is fairly good. I would buy it again. it comes with windows 11 which is much better then windows 10 in my opinion.
