I bought this because my other needed to be updated and would not support Windows 10 or 11, which was required for my Cricut and the operating systems for a graduate school program. It has met every need and was priced so well that I could not pass up giving this brand a try. I have always been a Dell or HP user, but this has happily converted me to an Acer product user/ lover.Thanks, Acer, for such a great product at an easily affordable price.

The listing clearly states the finger print scanner is on the mouse pad and shows that in the photos. My laptop came in today and does not have the finger print scanner. I was really bummed about the because I thought that was cool. Still a great laptop and there's no way I'll go through the hassle of re-packaging and mailing it back. Still seems like a great laptop. So far still pretty happy with the purchase.

I bought to use for research seems to work well. no problems setting it up. I did notice the battery is short lived while working it could last longer . When I received the computer there was no charging cable I contacted Acer and they sent one which was here in 2 days. All in all not a bad laptop. I think my next laptop will be a different brand. For what I use it for it's ok.

3 months of light use and it's dead. Warranty is useless. Save your money and stay away

This laptop is nothing short of awesome. The picture is brilliant, the sound is crisp, it runs smoothly, and has a built in fully functional USB 3.2 port to attach a hub to for connecting any and all accessories you could possibly think of. Games run nicely on it and it has plenty of internal memory for downloads, just disable Windows S mode to take full advantage of what this system fully has to offer. No real complaints about it at all and definately worth the price if you are looking for a laptop for yourself or a loved one. 5 stars! If anything notable happens regarding this product during my time using it I'll update my review for you here. Hope it helps and thank you for taking the time to read it.

good product.

Bought for my dad to surf the net and he likes it

I got this to use as a windows laptop to try out windows 11. I wasn't sure what the S mode was about, but it was cheap and had decent specs.Windows S mode is basically windows with only MS App Store apps. this is great for security, but obviously limits your ability to use other apps that normally you'd download from the internet.however, you can unilaterally move out of Windows S mode.Screen is nice, its full HD so it's nice and sharp. the resolution is good, but the screen it self is adequate. its anti-glare, but the colors are a bit dull compared to my Samsung monitors. refresh rate is ok.Processor is a bit on the light side for heavy work, its a 4 core, 8 thread with up to 4ghz.it does have 8gb of ram, DDR5, but I couldn't find any option to upgrade that. looking at the motherboard I dont see any sockets, and being DDR5 I assume its soldered to the board.the only main thing I dont like, is that the power supply is very unique, however this model can charge with the USBC port.overall, its a very snappy computer. I used the laptop to do some camera testing and it held up without any issues, running a 20MP camera at 20fps, without any drops or skips, which is pretty impressive. CPU test with CineBench is pretty low. 4500 -which is 1/2 my MacBook Air M1.Overall a nice light laptop that has decent battery and nice large screen.

My daughter loves it. I bought it for her to play simms4 and she couldn't be happier

I like the feel of the laptop and the screen is decent quality. However, it re-boots at least once a day without warning, and I haven't been able to get a good response on how to fix whatever is causing it. Quite frustrating for what otherwise is a good product.

Highly recommend

Overall great laptop

This is a nice light laptop that has enough Windows apps and settings. Glad it was delivered in a timely manner. However, I wish I could install Chrome like my older laptop. Also, some of the MSN news or other pages appear to load a lot slower than my older laptop.

Beautiful laptop, looking to add more storage and a stick of 8 GB RAM again. It was bought as a backup to my other work laptop but I've been using this more (as I am on holidays at home). So far it's working smoothly (fingers crossed) and I do hope that it lasts. I've also bought a hub to connect so that I can access my phone's files/photos and integrate them into the learning process for my students.

Many nice features. Back Lighted keyboard, !080p Display, You can add DDR4 Ram (only one stick) there is an 8gb soldered on board). You can upgrade The onboard SSD M.2. You can also add a regular SSD in addition to the M.2 there is a holder kit included so you can do that. It's not too difficult to do that. The back is fairly accessible by removing the 11 screws that hold the back cover on.My only gripe I have is it is just about impossible to change the Operating System to something else (Linux). There is probably a work around for this but I haven't found one.

Fast and dependable computer. Excellent for home or student use at a reasonable cost.

The track pad is off centered and its kindof hard to use. The computer is pretty fast and gets the job done.

Screen size and picture quality are great. No problem with setup. I have exact year older model and very glad to see they redesigned the hinge on new model. For gaming could use more ram but that is more money. Individual choice. Very happy with this for my needs.

Bought this computer two and a half months ago the screen froze twice. Could not open the computer. Had local computer shop fix this brand-new computer to the cost of $90.00. They said it was something wrong in Windows 11. Wish I bought an Apple computer.I'm sorry about the above comment. I wrote it out of frustration of being new to using a Laptop. I've had a desktop for years and only recently switch to the laptop. I'm sure this Acer will perform very well once I get use to it. The fix for screen freeze is so simple just hold the on/off button down for ten seconds let up for ten seconds push it down or another ten seconds. I'm sure I will learn much more as time goes on. It really works well and was a great buy.

The volume/speakers on this are trash. Unless i put headphones in, it might as well not have speakers since volume at max is below my ability to hear. I wish I never bought this piece of trash. My 11 year old HP laptop sounds better.
