    I've had it for about a month now. It's used almost exclusively as an e-reader and internet radio. Works perfectly. The only problem is the screen seems a bit flimsy. I got the machine with touch screen because of reading, but the image acts up as the screen bends when I use my finger. That should have been sturdier.

    I had a excellent experience dealing with Best Buy. Im not being bribed or paid. I ordered the Acer that was way underpriced(on sale)had it delivered,bought the club member(sale)Acer was herein2 days,worked perfectly,got everything for 350. Was happy as a tick on a dog's butt. Will buy here again wish I could give them more stars,was simple easy app.calso comes with free apps. I got the bigger screen n memory,and a free padded laptop case.

    There are several features I like about this laptop. For the size of this screen it's very light and that's huge when your office travels with you. And I love having the 10 key on the right. Its a win for me.

    This laptop is 10x faster than my old one, and much easier to use. The only problem I have encountered is the USB ports which don't accept my older USB devices.

    I was looking for a computer and was set on an Apple or Microsoft product but, after talking to my IT department, decided to give Acer a chance. I'm sure glad I did! The keyboard and speakers aren't top quality but everything else is exactly what I was looking for. My favorite feature is the touch screen and its very responsive. They say "you get what you pay for" but I think I got more than I paid for in this purchase. I've had my Acer for over a month and looks like I found a new favorite.

    It is great for daily use! It is cheap and useful, The touch screen works well also! The only thing is you only upgrade RAM up to 12 GB. But with 8 GB it works just fine!

    Love this laptop. It’s a very good product at an excellent price. I returned on without the touch screen and got this one. We’ll worth the extra effort to do the exchange.

    Good beginner laptop. Bought for homework assignments as a graphic design student but since it’s the lowest end of requirements to run Adobe I don’t use it for my graphic homework as much. Mostly work on that in class. I’m a little disappointed with how cheap the laptop feels to me. Very plastic-y and rather bulky. I definitely do not like the aesthetic of it as much as my boyfriend’s more expensive HP laptop, but it seems to run similarly. I haven’t tried editing on it or high graphic games/ videos. Overall I thought it would be a little bit nicer build for $400 but it runs fine.
