Are you in search of a new laptop? If you are not willing to spend a fortune on a new laptop, then you are in the right place. There are numerous options that you can choose from, which makes your choice even harder, right? In the next few lines, we’ll discuss whether the best selling laptop on Amazon right now is worth it, or rather no.
The model that we’ll discuss along with Austin Evans is the Acer Aspire E15, that costs only $350, which for a laptop is a really competitive price. But what does it provide for that money? Would you remain satisfied or you’ll just spend your money? By the end of this article, you’ll have this question pretty cleared!
What are the specs of it?
In terms of hardware, the laptop is pretty standard and good for the money. It packs a 7th Generation Intel Core i3-7100U Processor, that’s clocked up at 2.4GHz and has a solid hard drive with 1TB capacity. The RAM is 4GB but the laptop could be easily upgraded. All you have to do is unscrew the bolts on the bottom and you have direct access to every component, that you may be willing to upgrade/change. You won’t have to detach a thousand things just to get to what you want, which is pretty convenient.
Moving to the display, it is also not the best one you’ve seen but it works pretty decently. If you are searching for something flashy with top-end performance, then you won’t like it but I am not that pretentious, so the 15.6″ Full HD LED display will do just fine for me. Also, the laptop runs on Windows 10 Home flawlessly and you’ll be able to load up some games, not use it only for web browsing.
What will it be like after you upgrade it?
Let’s be straight – the laptop doesn’t need more than $80 to get to a level, that it could be more flexible and used for different tasks. If you decide to go with the specs and hardware provided by Acer, then you can use the machine for watching movies, playing low-resolution games, listen to music, browse the net and even optimize your workload.
After you spend less than a hundred dollars on RAM and solid state drive, you’ll most definitely make the laptop even a bigger bargain. You’ll turn it into a laptop with great possibilities, for a price lower than a smartphone. In the video, Austin is running CS: GO on decent graphics at a high-speed level with no lag and whatsoever. This means that it would load up Dota 2, Skyrim, League Of Legends and other games that don’t require you to have a PC that you can use for launching Space X project rockets…
Is it worth it?
Well, in my opinion, the Acer Aspire E15 is totally worth both the retail price of $350 on Amazon, as well as the low-cost upgrade that you can freely choose whether to perform or no, depending on your personal needs. Considering the build quality, display, hardware, specs, software, abilities and the price itself, I declare that this laptop is just great for you.
The battery life will ensure you long-time usage before the need of a charger and for this kind of laptops I rarely expect them to have a backlid keyboard, so they are great for dark spaces as well, which means that you wouldn’t press the wrong key at all. I really love the idea of this low-cost machine and I think that it should become a tendency among companies to try to offer some of their audience with more affordable tech. This Acer Aspire E15 is the perfect example and I am sure that it would continue to sell highly.
