5.0 out of 5 stars NEEDED AN UPGRADE AND I LOVE IT!!
By trishateca
I got this one because the Dell Touchscreen that I've had for 5 years, the power plug became loose where you plug it into the laptop. It would not stay in the hole. Would come out. Anyhow, I also wanted a "power" button on top of my laptop where all the other keys are, instead of on the side (like my Dell has it). Upon days of research, I came across the Acer Aspire 5 and compared it to other laptops and decided to get it. It is the best decision I made for myself! The cost was great. Half the price of my Dell. And it's fast! My Dell was slow. Always buffered during movies and tv shows. I do not know the "computer lingo" or jargin to describe the specs on it, but as a lay person who has used computers since the '90's, it loads quickly. And the graphics are clear when you watch a video or a movie. I do a lot of streaming online and have no problems with it. The sound is okay. But I use headphones anyways and it is good. The battery life is fantastic! I can use this for 6 hours on the battery without stressing to plug it in. And someone asked if the keys are backlit, yes, when you tap a key all of them light up while you are typing. The light goes off a second after you finish typing. Which I like because it gets too warm when they stay on. So far so good. I've only had this Acer for a month and hope it lasts a few years!

How does the webcam perform in low-light conditions?
The 1080p FHD webcam uses Acer's Temporal Noise Reduction (TNR) technology to improve image quality in low-light environments, and it's enhanced by AI features like automatic framing and background blur through Acer PurifiedView software.
Is the 8GB of RAM soldered to the motherboard or is it upgradeable?

great laptop for the price. The 16GB RAM and 512GB ssd provide smooth performance and the 180° hinge is a nice touch. Windows 11 runs well, and the sleek Silver Gray design looks premium. Highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Rocky setup, but end result was worth it

The media could not be loaded. When I first booted this laptop up, it presented me with a "defaultuser0" account that I didn't know the password to. I completely wiped this laptop's SSD and reinstalled Windows to play it safe, and after that it worked like a charm with regular setup. I did have to find drivers online for the touchpad afterward though.Getting at the SSD to do all of this was thankfully pretty easy, since the bottom panel was removable with a few tiny screws. I noticed that there is only a single slot for RAM in there, but it isn't soldered on so I was able to upgrade it with a 16 gig stick at least. The N97 is no gaming powerhouse but it plays some older titles still, and the laptop works great for work like emails and browsing the internet.
