Acer's 15.6-inch laptop offers an AMD APU from the Stoney Ridge generation, a quick SSD, and an additional 2.5-inch hard drive. The battery life leaves something to be desired.

matte display; barely warms up; SSD+HDD; maintenance hatch; AC-WLAN; quick memory-card reader

dark; low-contrast display; average battery life at best

I bought this a few days ago and have had nothing but problems with it since I turned it on. It takes a real long time for Windows to finished loading up, if you click on any program it takes a really long time and doing updates on this laptop can mess up your laptop.

VEry nice computer, came with everything I feared it wouldn't and has been operating very well. Light and neat pattern on it. Has numberpad for us accountants :)

I would say absolutely get this laptop if you only want to spend less than $400 but if you can spend $650 get the Acer gaming laptop.

In fact I would say this is the best $400 laptop you can buy; I can play many FPS games with between 55 to 75 frames per second averages about high 50s to 60 ish

The only problem I have is that the screen has terrible viewing angles and the battery life is worse than a phone; Eventually you will find a good angle to position the screen and you don't notice it anymore.

The Laptop is amazing the screen looks very good with good enough viewing angles, the keyboard feels really good and the trackpad also feels amazing. It runs 4gb of ddr4 ram 2133mhz if anyone is wondering as it doesn't really say it anywhere.

I bought this computer for our condo association to run Quickbooks on. It is a good computer. Very happy with it.

So easy to organise afterpay and pick up. I needed it quickly due to starting study. It does everything I need it to. I'm very happy with my experience.

On paper at least, the 8th-generation Acer Aspire 3 laptop seems to offer quite a bit for its rather slender asking price. You get a well-sized 15.6-inch Windows 10 machine, packing a Full HD display and Intel Core i3 chipset. Not bad specs for a budget notebook.

Attractive and solid design; Decent connectivity; Comfortable; comprehensive typing experience

Limited performance; Very basic display

This is a Great little laptop for the kids no optical drive but what you want for the price

Most specs match, however laptop i receoved seems to be a different model. It has no backlit keyboard. Would return but starting school on Tuesday and no time to try to find something else. Seems a bit laggy out the box for having 12gbs of ram.
