    Nice functional computer. Very light and it came with a laptop sleeve. I use it for school so it’s very nice. I like the number keyboard is but in. Although the zero is placed differently than I would like. Other than that very fast, good graphics and sound.

    This has been working well. Economical and good performance. Only reason for 4 stars is because it seems as though the fan runs quite often and is loud.

    I really like my new Acer computer. In fact I like it more now than I did when I purchased it. It is simple to use and very responsive. I'm not a technology geek. I just wanted a computer that does the basics well. I do not play computer games so my needs are pretty simple.

    Perfect for desk warriors who do not want a laptop. I would rate it a 4.5 if I could. It's missing a backlit keyboard and a higher resolution camera, but otherwise, it's a solid build, has aluminum casing that gives a higher quality feel/appearance, without making it look like a toy. Fast processor, Wifi 6, HDMI, USB+UBS-c, and a large SSD.

    I have always been a fan of Acer, this is far from being a disappointment. It is incredibly fast and fluid and does a great job of multitasking. Windows 11 was easy to get used to. Love having the numeric keyboard. The display is crisp and clear. I was surprised that it did come with a carrying case.

    Overall a really good laptop for the price, a bit slow out of the box but once it finished updating it’s very fast. I’m able to browse the web, download things and have even done some gaming as well with no problems. I don’t use the touch screen much but it’s helpful to have!

    Nice and light, runs simple applications well. If you only need a dedicated computer for presentations with basic multifunctioning (multiple non-web-connected Microsoft Office applications), this computer does the job well.

    I love my new laptop. I'm a graduate student and previously had a Chromebook. It worked for my undergrad, but I needed something that can download programs, not just apps. My only complaint is that the speakers are very quiet, even when turned up all the way on all options.
