Acer Aspire 7 AMD Ryzen 5-5500U Gaming Laptop (Windows 11 Home/8 GB/512 GB SSD/Nvidia GTX 1650/60hz) A715-42G with 39.6 cm (15.6″) FHD Display, Charcoal Black, 2.15 KG

Just buy it. I purchased this within one month of its launch and it gets out of stock very quicklyPros :Ryzen 5 5500U ( 6cores, 12Threads, Zen2 architecture ) paired with 1650 can get all of your work done. If you need more, you should be looking for laptops above 80k ( or desktop )Screen is good enough, cannot ask for more in this price range.Body is made up of plastic but keyboard deck is made up of aluminium for heat dissipation.Excellent palm rejection from touchpad and the size is good enough to get everything done. External keyboard and mouse will be better anyway.I/O is fair for this price range.Excellent ventilation, both in terms of intake and exhaust.Barely noticeable fan noise while doing less processing intensive work. Given hot ambient temperature during summer in India, laptop fans will make noticeable noise but it is not a sharp annoying whine. You will not feel any type of discomfort with that noise.Backlit keyboard is good for dark rooms.Linux dual boot will also run fine provided you install it properly and configure nVidia drivers ( GTX 1650 will bug you A LOT during live boot but you can access command line interface and install your distro ). Remove nouveau drivers and install proprietary drivers for best performance.A lot of things can be tweaked from BIOS ( Fn+F1/F2 idk , for first time users ) including the timeout enable/disable for keyboard backlight so make sure to check bios settings if you’re into those things. (To access secure boot, you need to set supervisor password)Battery backup is actually around 6.5 hours for new machine for continuous video playback and if you’re barely doing any work like reading documents/PDF files then it can last for 14 hours easily.Cons :Laptop body can extract your fingerprints better than national crime investigation departments. Also it can get scratches very easily so be careful.Do not apply too much pressure on hinge. Although it can last for years, it all boils down to how the end user treats it.Side notes :Upgrade RAM by adding another 8GB stick or replace the RAM with 2 16GB sticks (SO-DIMM DDR4 3200MHz ). No, 12/24 GB configuration will definitely work but it cannot give you max Dual Channel performance since dual channel tech works efficiently when both memory module are of same capacity. So either buy 1 8GB stick or get 2 16GB ones. (Max 32GB for this system)Get an external 1TB type C SSD. it’s better than replacing internal 512GB nvme with 1TB.Keyboard area can get warm under full load but nothing to worry about. You should use external keyboard and mouse if you’re using your system this much anyway.TL;DR : if your budget is 55k max and you want a laptop that is worth the amount, there is nothing better than this so far.Reviewed after 15 days of usage.overall rating : 9.5/10

Outstanding. Just buy it. Fantastic product. I’m a computer professional and I’ve used at least 5 laptops and 8 different desktops during my career. I can say that this is the single most performant laptop I’ve ever used. Windows 10 performance and smoothness is noticable. Perfect for WFH/software developement. Simply beautiful machine and I think you’ll love it.Pros:- great build quality, does not feel like cheap Compaq laptops- sturdy and rigid, good quality hinge- excellent cooling, cpu stays 50-60 degrees Celsius even under heavy load- excellent performance with Ryzen 5 chip- stock 8gb Ram works fine- Screen – full Hd screen is very clear and crisp (my photos could not capture the quality)- Screen colour gamut is very impressive, works fine for graphics design, stunning colours- dark gray laptop skin looks very pro and cool- keyboard touch is wonderful- you need to change DPI to 100% to take advantage of full HD- 3 normal size USB ports- physical Ethernet Jack for high speed internet Cons- Speakers bass is worse than my OnePlus phone- Speakers sound a bit tinpot (its perfect if you are using headphones)- You’ll need external speakers to watch movies with family with good quality audio- speaker rating 5/10- audio jack rating 10/10Overall rating 9/10

Average product. It’s not bad, but not good either. I bought it for 38,990. I was getting the same price for some other acer laptop with intel i5 1155g7 processor and IPS display, but I missed the deal. So, I bought this ☹️.Pros:1- Performance is not an issue. Decent performance for most of the tasks.2- Didn’t do gaming, so not sure of that. But for programming, it’s good.3- Good for multitasking.4- Audio is good. It’s not loud, but sufficient and it comes with Nahimic audio (for which you will have to download it’s app) which enhances it’s audio capabilities. Audio can be optimised for different purpose.5- Sufficient ports. Also have type C port.6- It has control center to control fan speed, external keyboard light, manage fan speed, power.7- Battery is decent and can last 4-5 hours on regular workload. But on heavy workload, it will last around 2-2.5 hours.8- Lookwise it is good.9- lifetime windows 11 home.Cons:1- Although display is antiglare FHD. It’s not IPS, so it looks crisp but average. It’s just ok for the purpose of coding or regular tasks where we just want the work to be done. Since viewing angle are bad, so for entertainment, it’s good for single person for watching movies but not for multiple people. Display is not good for graphic designer who needs color accuracy.2- There is no backlit keyboard. So, if you want backlit, connect external keyboard with backlit.3- Although it has an SSD, I didn’t find the boot time to be faster. It is fast but didn’t meet my expectations.4- Graphic card is not dedicated which is just good for normal work. I don’t think you will enjoy gaming on it. It can play light games but surely you won’t enjoy gaming on such system. And it won’t able to play high demanding games.5- Doesn’t have activated ms office. You will have to buy it’s keys.Note:You can install a separate harddisk (HDD) for storing data. Screws are provided with laptop.For me, the bottom side became very hot and fans started making noise, when it first arrived and I was installing windows updates on it first used it on my bed, that is without proper ventilation. But with proper air flow, it doesn’t heat.Conclusion:If you are limited on budget and only want your work to be done and doesn’t care much about display quality or back lit keyboard or you aren’t a gamer, you can buy it.And if you already bought it, don’t regret your decision. It’s a ok laptop for most of the task and will get your work done.UPDATE:- It hangs in middle, and everything stops working not even power button unless I press it for long time to force shutdown…..all my work was lost and mind you I was not doing a heavy task that it couldn’t handle, simple web browsing and it stopped in middle, nothing worked….really frustrated….. Don’t know if it was windows 11 issue or due to cheap hardware of this machine,🥹😡

Works great with Windows, ok with Linux. I purchased this mainly because of the support for an in-built SATA port. This was the only one available with SATA port and reasonably recent CPU and a reasonable price. On that front, it is great.However, I wanted to use it with Linux, and on that front I took a huge risk. Luckily, almost everything works fine on Linux. However, suspend to RAM doesn’t work. To go into details, the BIOS doesn’t support S3 sleep. It only supports S0x sleep, support for which is only beginning to mature in Linux. I am currently forced to use hibernate, which is slower.

It’s awesome. I love this

Good. Nyc packing good quality
