Just got this Acer Aspire 3 laptop from Best Buy and thought I'd share my thoughts after using it for a bit! Overall, this is a pretty decent laptop that won't break the bank. The touchscreen is surprisingly nice - wasn't expecting that at this price point! The screen is bright and clear, and being able to tap and swipe makes scrolling through websites and docs way more intuitive than I expected. Performance-wise, it handles my daily stuff without breaking a sweat. I'm talking Chrome with multiple tabs, Word, Excel, streaming Netflix - all the usual stuff. The Ryzen 5 processor definitely pulls its weight. That 512GB SSD is plenty of space for most people, and it makes everything load super quick. The build is... well, it's plastic, but that keeps it lightweight which is great for carrying around. It's not going to turn heads like a MacBook, but it gets the job done. A few nitpicks though - 8GB RAM is fine for now, but if you're like me and keep 20+ browser tabs open while running other programs, you might notice some slowdown. Also, while the battery life isn't terrible, don't expect to go a full day without your charger. Bottom line: If you're looking for a reliable laptop for everyday stuff like browsing, office work, or Netflix, this is a solid choice. Just don't expect it to handle heavy gaming or video editing. For students or anyone needing a dependable work laptop that won't empty their wallet, this Acer definitely deserves a look. Just my two cents!

I wanted to wait to write this review until I had the laptop for awhile and I only have good things to say. For reference, I only use my laptop for normal web browsing, light word/excel work and casual gaming (have not tried any MMO or similar games). It is exactly everything I needed. The touch screen is a must have for me and works well. The keyboard is reactive and not as bad of a transition from a normal keyboard. It's plenty fast enough for my needs and has a decent battery life. It's easy to use and easy to set up. The screen quality is great and it's perfect size to stream a show or movie. Sound quality is good too. I'm obviously not someone who is super into computers, but I am a human being who uses the internet, likes entertainment, and has to check emails and edit excel sheets sometimes. I'm sure this thing does cool things I don't know about, but it was a value to me regardless. Also, it's blue and fits perfectly in my standard size backpack. Please enjoy the photo that the laptop took of my dog, Tilly. The TL:DR: Great laptop who the person who doesn't exactly know how much laptop they need, but knows they need a laptop.

Good evening, I am writing these lines to inform you that my laptop was working perfectly, it is light and fast, excellent for carrying out any work, but today I tried to do some work and when I opened the laptop some screws came loose and the screen turned off, I will take it to the technical service to see what happened, but if you ask me if I would buy it again, I would 100% say yes... excellent purchase, today, almost a year later, that problem occurred.

Got this computer for my girlfriend and she loves it. It’s a great computer for someone who is going to school or that likes to watch movies or shows. It’s touch screen. It’s really affordable and the quality is decent for the price

It is a very good fast lightweight laptop but it has a non-standard layout for the numeric keyboard which is annoying if you are accustomed to a normal layout.

So far so good. Very nice. Screen is very sharp and clean for videos. Pretty fast for what i use it for. Battery life is good and love the touch screen although i dont use it much. I like my screen to be clean.

Pretty good for a light gaming computer. Can’t run higher end games like COD, but still this is only a light gaming CPU. It’s good for KSP, Total War, and other light games. The battery life is poor, but again it’s a gaming CPU. Its speed is pretty decent, doesn’t really slow down much unless I try to run a too high demanding game. The display is large although still 1080p so not the best. Overall, I’d recommend it for beginners wanting to run light games.

My daily use includes using the Microsoft office and online streaming. This laptop handles that very well. It's also quite light for its size. I also love that it came with this neat sleeve. I've only had my Acer for 2 weeks but I'll give a 6 month review. Definitely worth the purchase so far though.

Excellent product overall. Purchased for college coursework so far so good. Apps download quickly and easily movies stream effortlessly. Not a gamer, so no feedback on that four out of five stars
