Fabulous

published

My Acer runs perfectly well. Never had a problem with speed or updates. I use it for internet, word processing, Adobe Creative Suite, Kindle, Audible and Netflix. No issues at all. It's compact, light and easy to carry around. I don't use it for gaming (beyond Minecraft) and I haven't attempted to add a bunch of stuff to it, because it's not designed for that. I even spilled hot tea on it at xmas and it has since recovered.



Purchased in April 2021 at Officeworks Physical store for A$350.00.

Useless with the size of the 28g drive

published

Wife bought it thinking it was a bargain. Works great until you try to add anything at all that use drive space. If you want to use it with anything worthwhile (Office etc.) run it all from an external drive as there are no fittings inside to add one in there

Great for normal use

published

Mine came with 500gb storage and it works pretty smooth. let us get this straight... no one buys a 400 dollar laptop with high expectations. I bought mine for school and it does absolutely great in performance but it has its faults. It is not built for games so if the games are very hard to run this pc won't be able to play it. overall it is a great comp for simple school work and I definitely recommend

Total waste of money

published

Buying this was a total mistake. It is just pure junk. It comes with just 28GB of memory and 24GB is preloaded so just have 4 GB left. It does not even have enough memory to update the latest Windows 10 security update.

They have not made a slot for a memory card so I might as well just chuck it in the bin. Acer conned us good on this one and think that will be last acer I buy. Back to Tosiba and Sumsung

Useless piece of JUNK.

published

I bought this to run one program which it did fine until it came time to upgrade Win 10 because it kept insisting I did or would not be supported any longer.
Windows 10 is using 23.3 gb plus other Win associated files of the 32gb SSD so there is not enough space to do the upgrade.
The SSD can't be upgraded like most computers as the SSd is soldered in and does not have the needed connection to upgrade.
One star is much to high for this rubbish but that's as low as it can be rated!
Bought January 2017 from Harvey Norman. Most unimpressed!

It does alright

published

It build quality is good and solid. The pentium N3700 runs at an adequate speed. The screen is pretty bad especially when viewed at different angles, this becomes really annoying when using it in tablet mode and it's even worst in portrait. I use it for some light gaming and it runs at a decent quality at this price point. Nonetheless, it is still a good replacement for my late Asus T100.

Worst computer

published

Absolute biggest waste of money. I've had it for less than two months and it doesn't even function properly 75% of the time. I just spent 45 minutes trying to open internet explorer and Firefox and BOTH of them give me error messages and refuse to open and then the computer restarts itself. Nothing works, it's giving me error messages constantly, and it isn't worth anything near what I payed for it. Total piece of junk.

Spend a bit more and get a better laptop

published

I was swayed by the cheap price and a cashback special. I wish I spent a bit more as what I am left with is a cheap sub standard computer that is barely good enough to surf the web. I would definitely recommend spending a little more and getting something with a bit more grunt,

It's a Snail

published

I bought this computer for my teenage son 6 months ago. It was slow right from the beginning, particularly when using the internet. As time has gone by (and auto updates etc) this snail has gotten so slow that it is continuously freezing.
The storage space is also small - 90% used up in 6 months mostly from updates because my son has been running it on the bare minimum files.
Do yourself a favour, avoid this "P76 Leyland" of a computer.

Would rate less than 1 star if I could

published

My mother bought this laptop for me less than 4 months ago because it looked so cute in the shop. Had to send it back to Acer after 3 weeks for repairs after it wouldn't turn on. Now it is glitching up again, it freezes if you use to many apps at once and randomly shuts down. It was not meant to have Windows 10 and cannot handle it. I wish I'd never seen the cute little thing. Planning on getting a refund this weekend.

When turning on, do you see any logo's or any bios boot messages on screen, if not, probably the video display has failed. If so it would be cheaper to just buy a new Tablet.
Some more info would help
