Aspire 3 A315-24P-R7VH Slim Laptop | 15.6" Full HD | AMD Ryzen 3 7320U Quad-Core | AMD Radeon Graphics | 8GB LPDDR5 | 128GB NVMe SSD | Wi-Fi 6 | Windows 11 Home

This is a great laptop and the price is great. Don’t miss this deal. Great for all your kids in school.

Item: R3-7320U This laptop should perform well for most uses except heavy gaming or video/photo editing. Overall for $292 this laptop cant be beat. If it lasts a year I will be extremely happy. Time will tell regarding longevity. Important tips: 11/5/23 *You must update the system BIOS as soon as possible as there is a flaw which causes poor performance on battery power. *This item includes Windows 11 with "S" mode enabled. At the very least you need to remove this mode and without a microsoft account it is not straightforward to do so. *Install Windows 10 instead. Use the Windows ISO USB media creation tool. Save an image of the current SSD drive.. create a recovery thumb drive and then wipe the SSD. Doing a clean Win10 install from a USB stick does not require a new license key! The Win11 key automatically applies to the newly installed Windows 10 Home version. Go to the Acer website and download/install all the newest available drivers for your model. *Ditch (save) the power adapter and charge it instead with a USB-C - USB-C cable. Pros: Very acceptable screen quality for this price range. Measured USB and NVME speeds are good Decently built and should hold up to light abuse With proper drivers the CPU/GPU seem more than sufficient for light tasks Good battery life and seems to run cool with little fan noise Cons: There is no keyboard backlight despite the listing description You cannot upgrade this laptop. Internally there is no spot for a second drive and as far as I can tell no way to increase the RAM. The touchpad and buttons require more force than usual. No page up or page down buttons No ethernet or SD card ports Hobbled Win11 OS requiring more than the average skill to get right

After a nightmarish experience with an overpriced Yoga Lenovo laptop (never again!) I bought this Acer. It comes with Microsoft S mode and Windows 11. Unlike other reviewers, I received only a 30 day trial of Microsoft 365. Apparently once you've accepted a previous offer of a 1 year Microsoft 365 trial in the recent past (that terrible Lenovo had this), Microsoft blocks you from getting another 1 year trial even if you purchase a new laptop. I loathe S mode (another way Microsoft tries to force you to use Bing and their inferior products) but I'm afraid that it will slow the computer down and so haven't turned it off. Bill Gates is a loser and Microsoft is really an awful company. I miss Google and no, Bing is not comparable. It's crap. Except for this, I am fine with it - for now. Most laptops don't last a year so I will give this four stars for now and update in a few months if it craps out on me.

Pretty good laptop. Will make a really good school or low level gaming laptop compared to latest games. It came with a 128gb 800mbps m.2 drive that was slow for windows 11 so upgraded it to 1tb 3500mbps m.2 drive. There are mixed reviews and info even from the manufacturer on if it has a extra ram slot or not but this one does not have one. All the ram is soldered to the motherboard and needs to be taken to an Acer shop in order to upgrade. Out of the box it used 6/8gb of ram at first then after the updates it dropped down to 4/8gb used. The system is pretty fast for only having 4gb free. The processor is the main feature I ordered it for since it is a 4core-8thread processor with speed ranging from 2.5ghz to 4.3ghz. After trying some more power demanding games the temp could still not pass 50c and stays quiet and cool to touch. It normally stays idle around 41c when not under a heavy load with no sound from the fans. The screen is decent quality but not meant for games since it's LCD and not being led the games get a bit of blur here and there with higher fps. Word of advice is when installing a different operating system the WiFi drivers do not reinstall with the system so any online activation is almost useless unless you have a usb-ethernet adapter. The battery lasts me around 6 hours in performance mode but in power saving mode could possibly last 9+ hours and way longer with some power setting tweaks. The graphics says 600mb dedicated and 3400mb shared but unlike a lot of systems all the shared moves straight to dedicated making it 4gb for the graphics. The value is pretty good and the appearance is slick. My older brother was checking it out and thinking of buying one now because of how well it does. Some upgrades to look into if you know what your doing is a new m.2 drive with a faster transfer rate and also possibly an upgraded 15.6inch screen that's 1080p-4k.

If I could give a 0 I would. The warranty expired end of January 2026. The laptop crashed a few weeks later in March. I spent some time on the phone with Acer rep leading me through steps to get it working again. Long story short I had to fed ex the laptop to Acer for repair. I received an email from Acer repair saying they received the laptop. No further correspondence from them after seven days. I had an Acer for around nine years before this one that was a great laptop so decided to go with Acer again. The keyboard description on this one said that it had a backlit keyboard. I also asked Rufus about the keyboard and the reply was that it did have one and received instructions on how to turn it on. It does not have a backlit keyboard and some of the other features/specs aren't the same. I was given a small refund on the purchase price if I agreed not to return it. BIG MISTAKE on my part. The keys on the keyboard are so close together that it is uncomfortable and my fingers often do not hit the correct keys. My hands are not large. The SOUND IS HORRIBLE.. I uninstalled the sound drivers and reinstalled and checked for updates but that made no difference. In order to hear anything I need to be up really really close to it. Since I use it to stream videos/music online almost every day, I am very disappointed in the sound. Set up was easy. Quality of laptop is not great and I doubt it will hold up for long. In my opinion this laptop is one that may be more compatible with young people as their first laptop considering the size of the keyboard. In hindsight I would not have accepted the discount I was given to keep this laptop which was not the one that was described and that I thought I was buying. The transaction and seller seem deceptive. I am without a laptop now. I will never order electronics from Amazon again.

Update. For some reason this laptop had to be reprogrammed by the tech guys at my job. It now works fine. I did like it and got another one that did not need reprogramming. I have decided to keep and give to my grandson. So though I did start the return process, I won’t return. The machine is clean and appeared very new. Hardly any wear and tear, however there seems to be an issue with the touchpad and even curser. I tried using a wireless mouse but for some reason the curser keep getting lost on the screen and I am constantly tapping to try and locate where it is. Its playing a game of “now you see me, now you don’t” This slows me up and I really don’t have time for this because I need to get my work done, not play hide and go seek with my laptop curser. So I’m returning for this reason. But overall it’s a nice laptop, very clean. I really wished it worked better because I liked it. It’s very light and easy to carry. If the curser was not defective, I would have kept, but it keeps disappearing off my screen when using touchpad or mouse. I rate it 1 star for this.

If you were like me, looking for a college laptop that would not break the bank, look no further. I am literally writing this review on this laptop in class. I just wanted a (Windows) laptop that I can code on and do a couple assignments while on campus. I never have to worry about the battery dying on me unless it was already really low. It is surprisingly fast but obviously not as fast as a $2000 laptop. Fast enough I would say. Right out of the box, I was instantly very surprised at how good quality everything felt and looked. It is actually pretty large in size but not cumbersome. But as I keep using it I do have some nitpicks about it: - The screen portion is pretty bendable to the point where I feel like you can easily break it. Now I don't know who would do that on purpose but you should watch out. - No backlight on keyboard makes it hard to see keys in low light. - Keyboard feels sort of hollow. Probably because it is cheap. - Fan is noticeably loud, say if the class is quiet. But I do prefer it to be cool and be a little bit loud than it be hot. - Fan ramps up randomly. Like I could have a simple assignment up with 2 tabs open and it could kick on for some reason even though the workload is not much. Then other times I have a bunch of tabs and another application open but it will stay silent. Other than that it is perfect if you need a cheap laptop to get some work done at school or code like me. Definitely recommend.

This is a huge step up from my last laptop, which was on its last legs for security updates and storage, etc. it was so easy to set up and very intuitive and it works so quick.

Tiene un rendimiento muy muy bueno, no se ha trabado para absolutamente nada, ahora quien se ha quedado lento es mi internet jaja, su calidad en todo sentido es excelente, lo que no me agrada del todo es su cargador, pero, sin duda es lo mejor para el precio, sobretodo aquí en México que para ese precio te ofrecen laptops con calidad horrible, de verdad que la volvería a encargar de nuevo, no se calienta, estéticamente es preciosa, su procesador es de lo mejores, la memoria sí que no es grande pero a la vez siento que está bien para que el procesador pueda rendir de la mejor manera, igual ya existen los discos duros, así que no hay pierde, si quieren algo de excelente calidad, estéticamente precioso y con un precio bajo, es la mejor opción ya que cuenta con prácticamente todo lo necesario casi para hacer cualquier cosa, no tuve tampoco ningún problema con el envío ni nada, la trajeron de Estados Unidos a México y todo muy bien (dato: la cámara también está preciosa cuando hay buena iluminación y el audio es muy bueno, no muy alto pero sí mucho mejor que el de mi laptop pasada sin duda).

Ordinateur de gaming pour mon conjoint. Il en est très content pour les jeux qu'il joue.

working well

Nice computer. I had it for a while now and it works just fine. No issues if u r not planning to game on it.
