    Got a great deal on this computer, and I am mostly satisfied. The only downside this far is the touchpad. It has plenty of sensitivity and works well but the clicking of a mouse aspect of the touchpad is wonky. It's taking some getting used to.

    Bought this about a year or two ago and it worked great in the beginning but about 6 months after owning it, it became so slow I had to refresh to factory settings. Even then it still runs slow and just doesn't work that great. Even though its a touch screen, it doesn't work with most writing tools (although haven't tried any new ones lately) which is also a bummer.

    The Acer Aspire R 15 is by far the best laptop I have ever purchased. I have owned 2 hp laptops prior to buying an Acer

    It is a powerful laptop with enough ram, 1 Tara bit of storage and it folds into a tablet or tent. Has replaced a few of my electronic devices and has made my web searching, computer needs and movie watching so much easier.

    Replaced dead HP laptop with this beauty from Acer. It's fast and has the capacity for all my files and pictures. Keystroke was easy to get used to and the lighted keyboard is excellent. Beautiful screen too.

    Not sure how this will hold up to the test of time in regards the keyboard keys. Flipping it around to use the touch-screen and as a tablet I notice the keys pushing. Not sure how much pressure they can take. Speed is good but I haven't transferred my music and pictures on it yet.

    Worked great for the past 20 months, now it won't charge or turn on. I think it's either the power cord or the power cord input on the laptop. I never realized that the battery does not come out without taking the whole thing apart. NEVER would have bought it if I knew. AM going to Best Buy today but I still wouldn't recommend ANY laptop where you cannot take battery out easily. I stop using iPhone because of that and got a Samsung. I have a protection plan but I don't know if it's for the laptop or not. When I bought it guy told me it was covered under current protection plan of TV I bought so I wouldn't have to get another one. Somehow I doubt it, but will see. Wish they would pay more attention to power cords when they make these things. Garmin has the same problem, their cords suck or maybe they're designed to fail after a while.

    So far my only comment is I would prefer an SSD drive over the 5400 RPM drive. BUT That can change. Great Computer. Great Price.
