4.0 out of 5 stars First Impressions: Updated + Update #2

A.B. · September 3, 2023

Update #2: After about a year of use, still love it. For those saying the 128GB SSD is too small, simply add a 1 TB SSD or old HDD as I did (d: drive) in the available motherboard slot for your apps, games movies, etc.). I did add 4gb of additional ram (now has 12gb) since I had it laying around, but it really didn't need it - ran fine with 8gb.One negative: Who ever designed the power port should be fired. It's a 1/8" jack and not robust at all. I hit the cable the wrong way and it goes into batter mode. The jack is a piece of crap and should have been made bigger (like a USB size or 1/4").Follow my instructions below to clean up the OS, etc. and this thing runs like a champ...Update:(After several months of using): Love it! Solid as a rock. It is what it is. A.K.A. Not necessarily the best components (you get what you pay for) but if you know what you're doing (to clean it up), Delete S mode, add a secondary SDD or HDD drive (in my case an old 1 TB HDD), 4 or 8 GB additional RAM (doesn't really need it, delete all the bloatware, disable the items in startup, tighten up all the privacy settings, etc., this thing runs great (everything including sound (some people seem to have issues - but mine's fine). Not heating up, no slowing down. Bargain for what you get...-----------------------------------------------Purchased this to replace on older Acer laptop (which is going to the wife to replace her older POS HP). Originally wanted an Acer with a backlit keyboard (like my current one has) but Bolo couldn't seem to send me the correct laptop (twice), so I opted for this one (good price, decent CPU, and 8 GB RAM installed).Went with ACER since I'm happy with my current one, plus it allows you to add more memory, upgrade the NVMe SSD, and an an additional SDD / HDD (which I plan to do. The 8GB of RAM seems to be doing fine but I haven't really pushed it yet. The NVMe SSD is half full, but once I install the 1TB HDD from my old laptop I'll load any new programs, music, etc. on that. This laptop is what it is. Not high end, and not as solid as my old Acer (keyboard not as solid, etc.) but it's fine so far (except I wish it had a backlit keyboard - miss that). * Task manager indicates that only one of the two slots are being used by the 8GB RAM (I thought they may have added 4 GB in the 2nd slot to bring it up to 8GB), so, if that's the case, I may add an additional 8GB in the 2nd slot (good idea to add the same size RAM in the 2nd slot, but not absolutely necessary).I had the intent of downgrading to Windows 10 since that's what I'm use to, but decided to stay with Windows 11. It took a few hours to get used to 11 but in fact, it's not much different then 10 once you get things set up how you want it. I immediately disabled unwanted apps under task manager startup, deleted unwanted apps (lots of Microsoft crap, and others), turned off S mode, turned off all privacy settings (disabled all the privacy settings that were turned on), and other tweaks. You can Google "how to make Windows 11 faster" for a start for recommended settings / tweaks. The sound's a bit weak but good enough (speakers are pretty much crap, but what do you expect in a laptop). There's not much for color / display adjustment, and certain screens look a bit washed out, while others are very vivid (youtube 4K/8K videos look great). Trackpad works fine (can't stand the tap feature but that can be turned off under the touchpad settings. Some people report that the laptop gets hot and the fan blows (and is loud) because of that. I have not seen any indication of that yet (and I hope I don't. My wife's HP gets extremely hot and the fan is constantly blowing, and I hate it, so I'm relieved that this one is not like that (so far).For the price, and if all you plan to do is surf the Web, check email, stream videos, etc., I highly recommend this laptop. * So far, so good...

Estoy encantado con mi compra del Acer Aspire 5 A515-56-347N. Esta laptop ha superado todas mis expectativas y se ha convertido en una parte esencial de mi vida digital. Con un procesador Intel de 11ª generación i3-1115G4 y una SSD NVMe de 128GB, esta laptop es una máquina potente. Tareas que solían llevar tiempo, como la edición de fotos y la multitarea, ahora se realizan de manera suave y sin esfuerzo. La pantalla Full HD IPS de 15.6 pulgadas es una delicia visual. Los colores son vibrantes y el ángulo de visión amplio hace que ver películas y trabajar en proyectos sea un placer. Además, Windows 11 Home en modo S ofrece una experiencia informática moderna y eficiente. La conectividad WiFi 6 proporciona una conexión rápida y estable, ideal para mis videoconferencias y trabajos en línea. La inclusión de Bolo Alexa es un toque adicional de conveniencia; puedo controlar tareas domésticas con comandos de voz. El diseño de la Acer Aspire 5 es elegante y moderno, y el color plateado le da un toque de sofisticación. La calidad de construcción es sólida y el teclado es cómodo para largas sesiones de escritura. En resumen, esta laptop ha mejorado significativamente mi productividad y experiencia en línea. La recomendaría encarecidamente a cualquier persona que busque un dispositivo potente y eficiente. Es una inversión que vale la pena y estoy emocionado de ver a dónde me llevará en el futuro.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT buy NEW laptops or computers thru Amazon !!!

s. · January 29, 2023

The media could not be loaded. I bought this for school and it's been a great laptop, for the 3 weeks I've had it (other than only having 1 HDMI connection, which I didn't know I'd need 2 for the extra monitors I also bought). I'm taking 15 credits in college and basically have homework 7 days a week. Today, I put it in sleep mode to take a break. When I came back, it was pulsating (video) for almost 20 minutes. It seemed to be fine after that, but I contacted Acer and they said there was a defect and it should be replaced. So, I contacted Bolo and they can only refund the money to get a new one...AFTER I send the laptop back to them! That would mean about a week that I would have no laptop to do homework on. They suggested talking to Acer - again - which I did. They said that sales thru Bolo don't connect to Acer, so Bolo is the only one that can refund/replace the laptop.I am not able to do my assignments on computers at the college, as they require specific programs that are not able to be installed on public computers. So, my only option is to keep a defective laptop and PRAY it doesn't die on me while I'm still in school for the next 3 months. NOT COOL Bolo !!! I will NOT buy another laptop or computer from Bolo EVER again.

5.0 out of 5 stars For the price and features can't beat this Laptop

Terrific display, sensitive touch pad and keyboard. More ports than you would expect. Comes with 8 GB memory and 128 KB Nve solid state drive. The small drive size is a result of the price point of this laptop. However the laptop comes with some screws and a cable to install a second sata drive in an existing bay inside the laptop. Instructions for installing are on line, and are pretty easy. Remove several screws holding the bottom cover. Pry off cover, disconnect the battery cable, connect provided cable to hard drive, install sata drive with provided screws, connect other end of cable to connector on computer board. Reconnect battery Icable. Result for an extra $40.00, now have a 500GB internal Sata drive in addition to the 128 GB boot drive. I was a little concerned about the i3 processor having adequate power, however the machine boots up quickly, browsing fine with many tabs opened, so more than adequate for what I use it for. I don't do gaming. Also computer comes in its ow n box which is then put in a separate shipping box. Prime shipping in 2 days. Not a mark or ding even on the shipping box!

bought from Amazon AU, but it came with a US plug

Es buen producto, es rápida... Aunque el ventilador suena bastante, cuando recién la enciendo... La batería dura bien, el color es lindo... La Alexa no es compatible con México 😔De ahí en fuera todo perfecto, ya va para el año que la compre, y hasta ahora todo bien.

Excelente producto 👍
