Reviews for the Acer Aspire 3 A315-21-4098

Acer Aspire 3 (A315-21) review – good budget laptop
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
We can conclude that Acer Aspire 3 (A315-21) is a budget mid-range laptop that is just ordinary. Despite this, the model has many merits which would attract one’s attention. Firstly, there is its low price. Also, the display does not use PWM which allows for continuous reading or working without eye strain. If you make use of our Display Profiles, the display significantly improves its qualities. The matte finish is also a big plus.
