Acer Aspire 5 A515-56-32DK Slim Laptop – 15.6″ Full HD IPS Display – 11th Gen Intel i3-1115G4 Dual Core Processor – 4GB DDR4 – 128GB NVMe SSD – WiFi 6 – Amazon Alexa – Windows 11 Home in S mode.
The Aspire 5 has long been a mainstay in the market for inexpensive laptops, giving everyday people access to a device that can handle productivity tasks, streaming, email, and online browsing. My last Aspire 5 experience was in 2017, and it goes without saying that the product line has advanced much since then with a much more contemporary design and improved performance hardware. I currently have the latest model of the newest Aspire 5 in for review. Has Acer created a new budget-friendly winner? To determine whether it’s a good investment, I’ve been using the Aspire 5 for approximately a week.
