Acer Aspire E 15 review

Premium-like productivity performance ; Discrete GPU is good for entry-level gaming ; Surprisingly solid battery life ; Comfortable keyboard and touchpad ; Case can be opened for expandability

Thick and heavy chassis ; Large display bezels ; Slow SATA SSD

The Acer Aspire E 15 is a great example of a machine doing its intended job very well. It’s not a premium notebook and doesn’t pretend to be one. Rather, Acer clearly aimed to provide a solid value, with performance, build quality, and battery life...

Acer Aspire E15 E5-576G-5762 review: Smooth productivity and even gaming for a bargain price

While it's a couple of pounds too heavy to quality as an ultraportable, this $599 version of the Acer Aspire E15 will please bargain hunters looking for smooth Office performance, and it's even got some game thanks to its discrete Nvidia graphics card.

Sleek, sturdy design ; Impressive productivity performance ; Discrete graphics card for casual gaming ; Solid battery life

Dim display ; A tad thicker and heavier than an ultraportable

While it's a couple of pounds too heavy to quality as an ultraportable, this $599 version of the Acer Aspire E15 will please bargain hunters looking for smooth Office performance. It's even got some game thanks to its discrete Nvidia graphics card.

Acer Aspire E 15 (E5-576G-5762)

Thanks to its full HD 15-inch display, discrete graphics, SSD, and low price, the Acer Aspire E 15 is one of today's best-value desktop-replacement laptops for budget-minded shoppers.

Excellent value. Comfortable keyboard. Bright 15-inch full HD display. Nvidia graphics card. DVD burner. Very long battery life.

Lacks fingerprint reader, touch screen, and SD card reader. Flimsy touchpad. Heavy on the bloatware.

Bottom Line: Thanks to its full HD 15-inch display, discrete graphics, SSD, and low price, the Acer Aspire E 15 is one of today's best-value desktop-replacement laptops for budget-minded shoppers.

A $600 laptop with discrete graphics, big battery life, connections galore and... a DVD burner

From its DVD burner and legacy ports to its discrete graphics and long battery life, this is one pretty great mainstream laptop.

The Acer Aspire E 15 (E5-576G-5762) is a wonderful mix of fresh components, simple design and handy features that have disappeared from most other laptops. Battery life and performance are great for its class.

Its size and weight are a bit much if you need a laptop you can regularly use on the go. The display is especially dim.

If you've bemoaned the loss of DVD burners, HDMI outputs and Ethernet jacks or you miss being able to easily add RAM and a hard drive on your own, the Acer Aspire E 15 is what you want. Its solid performance and battery life make it an even sweeter deal.

Acer Aspire E 15 (E5-575-33BM)

The Acer Aspire E 15 (E5-575-33BM) is a fully featured laptop for a low price, with a large HD screen, solid performance, and best-in-class battery life.

Affordable. Excellent components for the price. Full HD display. 1TB of storage. Long battery life.

Some keyboard flex. Subpar speakers.

The Aspire E 15 is the very definition of a top-value laptop, offering a useful set of features and good hardware for a low price. It's only $20 more than the Dell Inspiron 15 3000 Series (3558) unit we tested, but performs better, includes a superior...

Acer Aspire E5-573G-7034

The moderately priced Acer Aspire E5-573G-7034 is a desktop-replacement laptop that offers lots of storage and memory, as well as a solid feature set.

Good price. Attractive design. Plenty of storage. Full numeric keypad. Strong all-around performance in testing.

Case feels flimsy. Mediocre display, with narrow viewing angles. No keyboard backlight.

Conclusion The Acer Aspire E5-573G-7034 is essentially a juiced-up version of the Acer Aspire E5-573G-57HR, providing a bit of extra processing power and memory and modest upgrades for $200 more, but sports the same display, graphics card, and hard...

Acer Aspire E5-573G-57HR

The Acer Aspire E5-573G-57HR is a capable desktop-replacement laptop with long battery life, a 1080p screen, and hardware suited to strenuous daily tasks, all at a fairly affordable price.

Great price. Discrete graphics card. Strong productivity and multimedia performance. Long battery life in testing.

Touchpad feels flimsy. No Bluetooth. Lacks keyboard backlighting.

Conclusion The Acer Aspire E5-573G-57HR is a top-notch desktop-replacement laptop, with a better display and more powerful gaming and processing capabilities than similarly priced machines. While the system can't run the most demanding games or play...

Acer Aspire E-15 review: This laptop packs solid performance, but at too high a price

Excellent performance for its class ; Sturdier build than some of its similarly-priced competitors

Costs more than similarly-performing peers ; Weird-feeling keyboard

The Acer Aspire E-15 isn't a bad machine, but it's a bit of an also-ran—there are cheaper machines with better specs and performance.

Acer Aspire E (E5-771G-51T2)

The Acer Aspire E (E5-771G-51T2) is a very good choice if you're willing to pay a little more for a very large laptop with a 1080p HD screen.

Large, bright 17-inch screen. Full numeric keypad. Decent sound. Intel Core i7 processor and 8GB of memory. DVD drive. Good connectivity.

No touch screen. No backlit keyboard. Large amount of bloatware. Sealed battery. No 5GHz Wi-Fi.

All in all, the Acer Aspire E (E5-771G-51T2) is a very good desktop-replacement laptop. It justifies its higher price tag over less expensive models by virtue of its 1080p HD screen, better performance, more system memory, and the fact that you can...
