Acer Aspire 3 (A314-22) review – decent budget offer
Source: Laptop Media
Actually, for that kind of price tag, this device is a decent offer. It’s compact so portability is okay. It’s a 14-inch laptop and it’ll fit in most backpacks with ease. The bezels around the display are narrow (except for the “chin”) and the laptop looks up-to-date, especially for its price category. However, for that kind of money, the Acer Aspire 3 (A314-22) is a solid offer. Just be careful how you configure it before buying – if you choose the 1080p panel with at least AMD Ryzen 3 3250U and 8GB of RAM (keep in mind that the dual-channel mode boosts the overall performance) you’ll get a decent budget device that can be your daily driver if you aren’t too pretentious.
