Reviews for the Acer Aspire 5 A515-57G-74D3

80% Acer Aspire 5 review (2022 A515-57 model – Core i7, Nvidia MX550)
Source: Ultrabook Review
This generation of the Acer Aspire 5 refines on its predecessors with a slight update in design and practicality, and a more notable update in specs and internal cooling. Unfortunately, Acer haven't updated the display in the same manner, and only seem to offer basic-level IPS panels for this series, the kind that might not suffice in 2022. The audio quality isn't much here, either, but overall the series remains a serious contender in the budget class of full-size all-purpose laptops.
