    Great little machine at a ridiculously low price!
    I figured 4GB of RAM would be sufficient just for day to day use. I was a bit disappointed in 128GB of storage and decided that even though it was a really nice machine for the price, for another $80 and change I could really make it fly.. if you look at my photos you can see that there's built in space for a 2.5 in SATA drive. In addition there is room to add memory and I decided to add another 8GB of RAM along with the SATA drive and 480 GB of storage. Obviously it makes a huge difference. If you look at the pictures I posted you can see that the Acer storage is depleted by half as soon as you turn the machine on. The Steve drive is the one that I installed. Plenty of storage now. The circled in red photo shows the increase in RAM... WHEN LOOKING FOR INSTRUCTIONS be aware that this model came out back in May of this year. There are very few instructional videos or written pieces to explain where this memory goes. The SATA drive is pretty self-explanatory. The only video I could find with this particular machine is provided by a user whose name is.  @Silicon Edge  you have to go to YouTube and search that name. I don't believe Amazon would allow me to post a link. It's not in English but all you have to do is watch his hands. If you try other videos you might think it's the machine you've bought until you open the back of yours and you look at the back of theirs and realize that it's different. I highly recommend temporarily taking out the screw on your right side of the battery to secure the ribbon clip. Then just readjust the battery and put the screw back in. Watch the video you'll know exactly what I mean. I love this computer. For $460 including the new ram I upgraded this machine. It would have cost me way more than that to buy it with that memory and that storage from scratch. Quick PS. I bought an HP 27 inch monitor here on Amazon and created a nice little setup. $169. You'll love the machine Don't think twice just buy it. If you want some speed, I mean real speed just upgrade the RAM and the storage. I used crucial. That's the brand name for the SATA and the RAM..... READ ABOUT THE UPGRADES..... You don't want to perform Overkill. The processor wasn't made for it. I'm no techie so I did a lot of reading before I did this.

In addition there is room to add memory and I decided to add another 8GB of RAM along with the SATA drive and 480 GB of storage. Obviously it makes a huge difference. If you look at the pictures I posted you can see that the Acer storage is depleted by half as soon as you turn the machine on. The Steve drive is the one that I installed. Plenty of storage now. The circled in red photo shows the increase in RAM... WHEN LOOKING FOR INSTRUCTIONS be aware that this model came out back in May of this year. There are very few instructional videos or written pieces to explain where this memory goes. The SATA drive is pretty self-explanatory. The only video I could find with this particular machine is provided by a user whose name is.  @Silicon Edge  you have to go to YouTube and search that name. I don't believe Amazon would allow me to post a link. It's not in English but all you have to do is watch his hands. If you try other videos you might think it's the machine you've bought until you open the back of yours and you look at the back of theirs and realize that it's different. I highly recommend temporarily taking out the screw on your right side of the battery to secure the ribbon clip. Then just readjust the battery and put the screw back in. Watch the video you'll know exactly what I mean. I love this computer. For $460 including the new ram I upgraded this machine. It would have cost me way more than that to buy it with that memory and that storage from scratch. Quick PS. I bought an HP 27 inch monitor here on Amazon and created a nice little setup. $169. You'll love the machine Don't think twice just buy it. If you want some speed, I mean real speed just upgrade the RAM and the storage. I used crucial. That's the brand name for the SATA and the RAM..... READ ABOUT THE UPGRADES..... You don't want to perform Overkill. The processor wasn't made for it. I'm no techie so I did a lot of reading before I did this.

    I love what you get for the price! However when I plugged in my Logitech c920 webcam and installed the latest Windows updates the next time I rebooted I had no audio and no webcam video. Windows said there were no audio devices installed. Whether I plugged in my external USB speaker, USB headphones, or just used the laptop speaker it told me the same thing. I reinstalled and tried different drivers but nothing fixed it... until I installed Windows 10. Now everything works great. Hopefully the next Windows 11 update will fix the problem.
    UPDATE: I decided that being stuck on Windows 10 with no more updates wasn't a good idea. After contacting Acer tech support they had me send them the laptop for repairs. I just got it back and all they did was reinstall Windows 11. That worked until I ran Windows Update and downloaded the latest Windows updates. Now I'm back to the same problem!! Is the solution to not get updates? Doesn't sound right to me.

    This is my 3rd ACER.. It came in really good packaging..and way before I thought it would be delivered. the only issue I have with it, is Microsoft Edge which is not an ACER problem, it's a Microsoft issue.. but once you disable the S, you will be able to download any browser you prefer.

    I purchased this to replace my other Acer that I've been using for years (thought it would be crapping out on me so I wanted to be prepared). WARNING: This laptop does NOT have a camera, nor does it have the back light on the keyboard (the actual F8 key that was for backlight, is blank). Anyway my original did not crap out for another year and a half, so this one sat, only used occasionally for that time period. Now that my old Acer has died, I am using this one regularly. Well...I don't know if it has a virus, or just a piece of crap. I am constantly having to reboot!!! When I try to open an "app" it usually doesn't "respond". I wait, and wait, and wait. I want to throw this thing against the wall! I can't play my simple solitare or candy crush without being booted out of the games constantly. I can't get my work done, it takes me 5X as long to do the simplest of tasks. I considered taking it to be checked out for viruses or maybe there are some unknown "blocks" on things, but for the price, I don't think it will be worth it. I'm going to just get rid of it and buy a new one. I HATE THIS THING!!!!!

    Buy it! Perfect price and bang for the buck!

    My only suggestion, add more memory.

    So so easy to install and much cheaper to buy extra memory on here and add it yourself!

    Generalmente Acer no suele resaltar a la hora de nombrar las mejores marcas de Laptop del Mercado, pero con esta Laptop Aspire 5 hicieron un gran y excelente trabajo con este equipo que se ofrece a un precio muy accesible y se nota está diseñada para el futuro. Es perfecta para hacer trabajos ya sea de oficina, de diseño y para las clases en linea, si quieren una Laptop para jugar videojuegos esta no es ninguna opción para eso.

    Posee un buen tamaño y es bastante ligera, cuenta con teclado numérico pero lamentablemente se trata de un Teclado en Inglés, eso significa que la letra Ñ no está en el teclado y obliga a aprender un poco sobre donde está ubicado cada simbolo en el Teclado si lo usas en Español.

    Como mencioné la Laptop está pensada a futuro, esta se puede abrir para añadir mas memoria si consideras que los 4GB de RAM que posee no es suficiente y permite además insertar un segundo disco duro por si consideras que los 128 GB que posee por defecto no son suficientes, por cierto la unidad de almacenamiento principal es una unidad NVME lo que garantiza un arranque casi inmediato al encender el equipo. Por cierto dentro de la caja del equipo viene incluido unos tornillos para instalar la segunda unidad de almacenamiento, lamentablemente no vienen instrucciones para hacer la instalaciones y hay que buscarlas en Internet.

    Con tanto positiverío debería haber algo negativo, la pantalla fue lo que menos cuidaron a la hora de diseñar este equipo, la calidad y nitidez de la imagen no es tan buena y para los que trabajan en diseño se les dificultará un poco trabajar por el poco rango de color que posee la pantalla, no es mala pero si toma tiempo en adaptarse. Por otro lado el equipo dice tener Alexa integrado, pero no encuentro como usarlo y lo único que veo de la función de Alexa es que en la pantalla de bloqueo me avisa si algún paquete de Amazon va a llegar durante el dia.

    NOTA: Es una mentira que viene con Windows 10 instalado, cuando me llegó venía ya con Windows 11 instalado y nunca me dio la opción de regresar a W10, tuve que descargar la herramienta de instalación que Microsoft ofrece en su sitio web para no perder la licencia, tomen eso en cuenta si no les gusta Windows 11 y no quieren perder tampoco la licencia al instalar W10.

    Though the product is American and service support (for a very minor issue) was not available during warranty, the product was sleek and good. Good ventilation. No overheating even after hours of video watching or on-line lectures.

    This is the worst screen I've ever used on a laptop. It looks too cheap. After coming from a Macbook Pro I tried this laptop for a little coding and I just can't do it for more than 2 hours. I have to use it with an external monitor

    Good quality for the price. Easily more than 8h of battery life doing everyday use on it. I am not disappointed.
