5.0 out of 5 starsGreat computer, but loaded with junk programs which need to be uninstalled after purchase

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2015

Verified Purchase

I have been working on computers since the 80’s, so I have a good background in computers.So my wife wanted a new computer so she can go back and get her masters.I researched them, and for the price this worked well.It’s fast, however, loaded with tons of junk software I had to remove. Moreover, I use Webroot Secure anywhere Anti virus (which I highly recommend) and it even pulled up two pre-installed virus purchase trackers.I wasn’t happy with that.However, as I said, the computer is a good one if you know how to remove all the pre-installed junk.

BTW, I quickly removed the virus software installed, it’s junk and tries to get you to buy a bunch of crappy add ons.

4.0 out of 5 starsGreat little computer for light computer use

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2016

Verified Purchase

I bought the Acer Aspire E to replace my Gateway laptop. (It still works, albeit a bit slower than when I first bought it. However, the screen has come off one of the hinges).

I really like this computer. My husband recently used it to record audio for a play at the high school. Just today, he used it to record the sermon at church. (Please note that the ability to record requires other components besides the Acer laptop. I use this simply to illustrate it’s versatility).

During the school year, I use the laptop to write lesson plans and other work-based applications.

The only reason why I did not give the computer five stars is because it lacks a disc drive. Please note that I didn’t realize this at the time of purchase (which was my oversight – not Amazon’s). Other than this, the laptop performs as expected. (The new Windows does take awhile to get used to. It was optimized for a touch screen tablet which this computer IS NOT. But after some time and practice, I’ve concluded that it is more streamlined than Windows 7 or XP)

I must return this laptop due to manufacturing defects. It it cheaply assembled, powercord plug in port on the laptop is slightly misaligned making it difficult to plug in. Powercord itself disconnects itself at the inverter box built into the cord. Taskbar clock keeps changing erratically (it was 11:10am all day yesterday and correct today), suggesting CMOS battery may be weak (according to google).

Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2017

Verified Purchase

I bought the Acer Aspire E5-71-7776 laptop in 2016.
When I received the laptop two of its USB ports didn’t work!
I contacted Acer support(still under warranty) and I mailed my laptop and received it in about 2.5 weeks later and the usb ports were fixed.

Since then, about 2-3 weeks after it was out of warranty, the power cable that connects to the laptop for charging broke leaving a metal part in the laptop and thereby I couldn’t charge the laptop.It was out of warranty, so I had to pay $120 to a computer repair shop to fix it.

About 2 months later, the left hinge of my Acer laptop cracked(laptop wasn’t dropped), it simple cracked when opening it.. This means that I know I can’t close my laptop, and I have a metal piece sticking out of the left hinge. I googled this left hinge on Acer laptops and I got alot of hits. I contacted Acer to to see if they would fix it, but the answer is sorry its out of warranty.

I learned the hard way. I’d recommend anyone considering an Acer laptop to spend a little more and buy a quality PC made of metal instead of the plastic that Acer uses. I’ll never buy another Acer product!

3.0 out of 5 starsBeware of white screen

Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2015

Verified Purchase

Apparently this is a somewhat common issue with acer aspire laptops, but after having this laptop for 2 months, the LED screen began flashing white, and shortly after remained completely white, obviously rendering it useless. Since it was clearly still under warranty Acer fixed it for me no hassle, no questions asked, but I was a little surprised to see it having problems so early on.

Other than that, this laptop has a great battery life, runs great, all that good stuff. Im not a huge fan of the speakers being on the bottom, but nothing is perfect.

Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2015

Verified Purchase

The hotkeys require pressing down the function key for the more common button presses (this is irreversible, unlike other computers),
neither number lock nor Caps lock stay in effect after putting the computer to sleep,
the trackpad not only has terrible sensitivity but the left mouse click is getting stuck after only 2 months of using the computer,
the internet connection is spotty,
and Chrome constantly freezes and restarts where it did not on my other 4-year-old computer.

On the other hand, the battery life is still good, but I have only been using the computer for two months.

3.0 out of 5 starsDefinitely a mixed bag

Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2015

Verified Purchase

I ordered this laptop a few weeks ago, and am very ambivalent about it.

Pros
The keyboard and touchpad are pretty solid.
-The long battery life (around 6-7 hours as promised, also detachable).
-Solidly built and relatively lightweight
-Fast boot up and processing

Cons
-The sound is absolutely ABYSMAL. The speakers are located at the bottom of the laptop, which horribly compromises the overall sound quality. I listen to music and YouTube a lot, and often find myself having to adjust the volume according to each video. I wish I had known this before purchasing.
-The faulty number lock. You have to toggle it on/off on startup and wakeup EVERY TIME, which is a hassle. Other users have trouble with this as well.
-No optical drive. Thought I wouldn’t miss it, but I definitely do.
-Poor customer service. As far as I know, there is only one person who manages the Live Chat feature. Overall, customer service isn’t responsive nor helpful.
-Recently, the low battery notifications have stopped popping up (settings unchanged), so it will sleep or hibernate abruptly.

I’m considering returning it, but haven’t had any luck finding a better laptop within this price range. I might just keep it. Haven’t decided yet.
