Reviews for the Acer Aspire 5552G-7120

80% Acer Aspire AS5552G-7120 15.6-inch Budget Laptop PC
Source: Comp Reviews Archive.org version
At first glace, the Acer Aspire AS5552G-7120 doesn't appear all that different from other budget class laptops. It features a fairly typical Core i3 processor, 4GB of DDR3 memory and 500GB hard drive. What you get with it that you won't find in many laptops in this price is a dedicated graphics processor. This will reduce the running times slightly, but it opens it up to more computing possibilities than can be found in many similarly priced laptops.

NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M:

Mid-range graphics card based on the GT 435M chip (GF108) with higher clock rates and DDR3 support.

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

380M: The Core i3-380M is a fast clocked Core i3. The TurboBoost, AES, VTd, and Trusted Execution functions are deactivated in the i3-series. Therefore, it always clocks with max. 2.53 GHz (of course Speedstep is included). Thanks to Hyperthreading, 4 threads can be processed simultaneously.

15.60":

15-16 inch is a standard display size for laptops and offers the biggest variety of products.

2.6 kg:

In former years, this weight was representative for laptops with a 14-16 inch display-diagonal. Nowadays, 17 inch laptops weigh less than that.

Acer: The company was founded under the name of Multitech in Taiwan in 1976 and renamed to Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors and televisions. Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell also belong to the Group and sell their own laptops.

While Acer still had the third largest global market share in the notebook segment in 2008, it ranked 6th in 2016 with a market share of 6% after they had continuously lost market shares.

There are dozens of Acer laptop reviews per month, the ratings are average (as of 2016). Gateway, which has an own laptop line-up, has also belonged to the Acer Group since 2007.

80%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.
