Acer AS5742-6475 15.6-Inch Laptop (Mesh Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is my review after two weeks of use. I am a database developer; I work with Sql server 2005 client tools, virtual box, MS office, VPNs and other development recourses. In general terms, this computer has enough speed and processing capabilities to perform a good job.
I could summarize the pros and cons of this machine in this way:
Pros:
*Intel I3 is fast enough to perform programming work. Very good in multitasking.
*4G ram gives you a very good program execution with fast access to resources.
*500GB of storage is great for pictures and work documents.
*EXCELENT display (HD with Led).
*Good image quality for the built-in web cam.
*Quiet enough (fan and hard drive).
*Over 4 hours battery (six cells), NICE!.
Cons:
*The worst thing of this machine is its SOUND. Only one mono speaker is SAD.
*The keyboard seems to be weak. I am afraid that in the short term it could fail.
*The mouse smart-pad should be located one inch more to the right side to avoid accidental touches.
*You must push hard to plug in something in the USB ports.Funny note: I bought this laptop in Amazon and some software from Ebay was found installed in it from factory!!.
Note for international buyers. This laptop will be sent to your country within a huge box!, then if your local carrier charges you for volume weight, you could be overcharged.
