Acer Aspire E 15 ES1-512-C88M 15.6-Inch Laptop (Diamond Black)

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I have done thorough research and compared this with other similarly-priced products from Toshiba, Dell, Asus (2 of them), and HP. This Acer is definitely the BEST one of the five 15.6" in the $200-$250 price range. All five have the same basic specs (Celeron / 500GHz / 4GB / 500GB) but the below specs give this an edge over the others.



PROS:



USB 3.0

- Dell doesn't have it, the rest do.

- Acer has one port.



Bluetooth

- Only Toshiba has it, the rest don't.

- Acer has Bluetooth 4.0.



Battery Life

- One Asus has 3.75 hr life, the rest range between 4-5.5.

- ACER HAS SEVEN FREAKING HOURS OF BATTERY LIFE!



Speaker

- The Toshiba and HP speakers suck big time! They are very low quality and thin.

- ACER HAS AN AMAZING SOUND SYSTEM FOR A LAPTOP! You don't need a speaker to get crisp sound with enough base.



Thinness/Sleekness/Appearance

- Toshiba is the thinnest and sleekest, the rest are at least 0.25-0.50 inch thicker.

- Toshiba and Asus have a bad case of finger marking! It is so disgusting to look at. The slightest touch leaves finger marks on it. HP and Dell are okay.

- Acer is almost as thin as the Toshiba, which makes it neat looking too.

- Acer repels finger marks, thus no disgusting finger marks on them!



CONS:

- Acer is the heaviest of the lot, adding 0.50 lbs.

- Acer does not have the Caps or Num lock lighting

- Acer does not have an optical drive.

- Acer ports are at the back of the laptop, as opposed to the traditional sides.
