Horrible laptop. I will never by acer again and Amazon is on probation because they should have better checks on what they promote. This lap has multiple issues volume, finger print reader, build. I live in the Caribbean and i bought this laptop for my daughter for online school. I had to get external speakers for her! Because of where I live it just so much of a hassle to ship this lap top back SO WILL HAVE TO ENDURE THIS THING. Some people say cheap thing not good and good thing not cheap.

I Love my New Computer! Works fantastic! Very happy with my purchase!

Had this laptop for about a month. It boots up very fast and runs my basic programs well. It only has 4GB RAM and I havent got around to upgrading it because I dont do gaming or watch videos. I have never used an AMD machine before, but the Ryzen 3 4300U is fast, quiet and efficient. Should have bought an AMD laptop or desktop much sooner.

mousepad randomly stopped working and not very happy

Excelente equipo lo recomiendo llego en el tiempo indicado todo correcto.

This laptop has the perfect specs for school. I wanted a strong laptop processor from light programming that wouldnt break the bank. The screen is a beautiful IPS with minimal glare!

I had been looking for a new laptop for a little while but couldnt decide what to get. Finally chose this one. Works great. Runs fast. Battery seems to last. Happy with my purchase.

This laptop is now running perfectly and set up to exactly to my taste. But getting there was not so easy. I detest WIN 11 and will stay away from it as long as I can. So I was disappointed when this laptop came with Windows 11 installed despite the fact the description said Windows 10 Home. And the Windows 11 installation was almost useless because the start menu did not work nor did run. Researching this on the internet I found out this was a fault in a beta version of Windows 11 that should never have been installed. Fortunately my old laptop was still mostly functional so I made a USB Windows 10 installation thumb drive and did a clean Windows 10 installation. One way to get rid of any pre-installed Acer crapware or, I guess, anything useful that Acer loaded, but I am not sure what that would be. This laptop is running very well now. I am ready to use it 8 seconds after hitting the power button which is nice. Getting it to this point was a bit more than I had bargained for. The speaker volume was feeble, like my previous Acer but I knew how to be able to turn the volume up by installing an equalizer utility.

When I read the specs for adding additional RAM, many sites, including the RAM manufacturer said this laptop has 2 banks and could hold 32G of RAM. That is not the case with this particular processor. It has only 1 bank to hold additional RAM. 4G is soldered on the board, so the maximum RAM you would have is 20G if you bought a 16G stick.

Fair price for the value of the laptop
