97% Acer Aspire 5 A515-55-35SE [ONLY ] Gets The Jobs Done?
Source: PCR English
This laptop is a better version of the last model of the Acer Aspire 5 family that already was a great value. The SSD helps this notebook to perform fast, it boots and turns on quickly. The Wi-Fi 6, backlit keyboard, and Fingerprint sensor are great additions. In short, if you are looking for a new 10th Gen Intel laptop for your basic computing needs, I’d choose this 15.6″ A515-55-35SE. The Acer Aspire 5 A515-55-35SE is a good laptop for everyone, especially for PC beginners. Thin, lightweight, and aluminum covers are not-cheap looks. The 10th Generation of Intel CPU, SSD, and 4GB RAM allow this laptop to deliver decent performance for daily computing tasks. For this price, you can't go wrong with it.

i3-1005G1: A low-power, Ice Lake family processor (SoC) featuring 2 cores, 4 threads, 4 MB of L3 cache and the UHD G1 (32 EUs) iGPU. This Core i3 saw the light of day in 2019; it is designed for use in highly portable consumer laptops of the more affordable flavour. The CPU cores run at 1.2 GHz to 3.4 GHz which is not a lot. The Sunny Cove microarchitecture that is in use here is notable for several improvements over Skylake including support for new technologies, new instruction sets and fast LPDDR4-3733 RAM. There is no PCIe 4 support here, however.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


15.60":

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.

Acer: In 1976, the company was founded in Taiwan under the name Multitech and was renamed Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors, TVs and computer peripherals. Since 2007, the group has merged with Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell, which also market their own laptop product lines.

97%: This model is obviously considered exceptional by the testers. There are almost no laptops that are rated this well. If the reviews or the sources that give these ratings are to be taken seriously, then it is a very clear buy recommendation. Unfortunately, sometimes top scores are also squandered.
