Reviews for the Acer Aspire V15 Nitro VN7-571G-574H
Broadwell Nitro. The Aspire impresses in most aspects: It has plenty of computing and gaming performance while managing long battery runtimes. The screen and input devices are also compelling. Shortcomings are found in the laptop's maintenance and upgrade options.

As usual, it depends on the price point. Compared to prices in Germany, where it was bought, the VN7-571G does offer some good combination for this price. Other laptops for such a price lack at least one of the components – fast GPU or a good 1080p display, though it changes all the time.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
