Archive.org versionThis 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.
