3 reasons to BUY the Acer Aspire 5 (A515-54G)
1. Battery life
The battery life of this machine is strong – over 8 hours and a half of Web browsing and video playback. Good score especially for that kind of price tag.
2. The price
As we mentioned above, this machine is affordable. This is one of the cheapest ways to have an IPS screen and NVIDIA GeForce MX250 at the same time.
3. Thin and light
Yes, this is a thin and light device – a 17mm profile and 1.90 kg weight.
2 reasons not to BUY the Acer Aspire 5 (A515-54G)
1. The screen
The screen has a mediocre contrast ratio – 1170:1. The sRGB coverage is poor – 55% only. At least it’s a PWM-free one.
2. The keyboard
The keyboard is clearly uncomfortable with its short key travel and soft feedback. One strange thing – some keys have different feedback than others.
