    Lap top is different from others I have had. Didn't know that if left plugged in battery can get over charged. and shut down. My others were fine with being plugged in all the time. Now that I know that, all is good.

    great little machine for the price. the charging cord port and the cord itself are fragile-looking, I would take extra care not to break the pin. Definitely not a rugged field laptop, but it works great for what I need

    I needed a new laptop for school and a chromebook wouldn't cut it. I found this bad boy and made the purchase. It's great for everything i need for school and has great graphics to use for playing any game i want on my downtime.

    Overall good laptop, the screen brightness and dimness is seem to still be too bright and the volume is not very loud. Key board keys are larger than normal.

    I'm very pleased starting with talking with your representative who helped with me picking this laptop, as well as the young man who came to my house to set it up and the 2 calls i made to the geek squad. Everyone was extremely patient and helpful. And I'm very happy and enjoying my new laptop

    So Far So Good. We needed a mid-range laptop to study for exams. Floor staff listened to our needs and budget to help us find the best option. Walked our new laptop to the Geek Squad and were able to set everything up for us with no fuss!

    The computer is great but unfortunately I did get a lemon. But how the computer is working even though it’s a bad processor, is great! Best Buy was great and allowed me to exchange it for a new one. I can only imagine what it is like when it works properly!

    This is a great home computer for simple emailing and internet browsing. It is quick to start up. I don't know about the battery life as it sits in the kitchen plugged in. The display is very bright.

    I now use Apple products but need a Windows laptop for projects that I share with others. The Acer I purchased was a recommended by the Sales Staff at Best Buy and has proved to be worthy of the recommendation as well as an extremely good value for the price I paid.
