Acer Spin 5 SP513-52N-85LZ User Review and Ratings

• Good for me

  Best computer for the price. Came with all the upgrades that I needed for everyday computer use and the price was amazing. The touch screen is as advertised and my daughter can draw in the apps. Enough power (RAM) to get by and use for all programs.

• Working perfectly, holding up well.

  This is my wife's laptop. Neither her nor I are computer experts that can rate how fast this thing is, or anything like that. But she has had zero problems with it. I guess we've had this for about 3 months now and my wife routinely lets our 5-year-old daughter use it for watching YouTube videos. I think that is where the ease of use of the touchscreen comes through. As our 3-year-old son is typically on hand to watch the videos too, it says something about the unit's physical durability as well.

• Great all around workhorse but not a gamer or photo unit

  3 month review:I?ve been using this as my daily laptop for the past three months. Overall this laptop as configured (i7, 8gb ram, 256gb ssd) has worked great for the daily grind. Office suite, browsing, email, presentations via the flip screen, etc.I do photography as a hobby on the side and also leverage Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. Unfortunately I felt that the integrated video card prohibited this unit from being able to really shine in the photo world. My recommendation would be to ensure you get the Acer version that has the NVIDIA chipset instead of the integrated graphics. This also became apparent when i tried to slip in some gaming fun. Fortnite and DOTA 2 were too much for the onboard graphics and resulted in having to set the graphics settings to low in order to have a consistent FPS with no lag.I will say that I was a little surprised at the sheer number of bloatware programs installed on this unit. LinkedIn, eBay, Ebates, and at least 15 others were already preinstalled. They were easy enough to uninstall, but be aware this isn't the cleanest install of Win 10.The Win10 partition is preinstalled on the 256GB SSD leaving about 200GB usuable after I got rid of as much bloatware as possible.The 1080p IPS screen seems a little dark (even at max brightness settings).I am surprised that a system with an i7 processor only comes with 8GB of RAM. Would expect 12GB or 16GB to really set this unit in the sweet spot.I have enjoyed really good battery life with this unit and have never felt there was unnecessary or accelerated drain. This may have to do with the perceived dark IPS screen (even adjusted brighter)All in all, there are a couple minor irritations (bloatware, dark screen, etc.) but having used this full time for the past three months. For the price, I think you'd be hard pressed to find something better with these specs.

• Powerful Work Laptop
  J. Sullivan (Dec 28, 2018) on Amazon
  Intel?s new, eighth generation processor is remarkably fast. I notice increased processor performance of the 8th generation i7 in this wonderful Acer Spin 5, than which is offered by my last-gen i7 class laptop. The improved processor is impressively responsive.I love the 13? Full HD touch screen. With its reliable gesture translation, and remarkably vibrant picture, it is a joy to work with. I have yet to bother connecting to an external display, the built-in screen looks so great.The Acer Spin 5 makes a perfect work computer. I would imagine it could game like a champ, but for its limited amount of storage. This has plenty of room for all of my office applications, some media editing software, and language compilers.It is comfortable as a laptop, running incredibly cool. I have fun exploring its conveniently automated, customizable tablet mode, which is nice as an additional function, since I never was interested in a standalone tablet, it makes the Spin 5 an even better value having a makeshift tablet to use as a programming reference. I can go for a tablet with good old fashioned computer power, too. It?s super cool.I like the compact power supply, which is not inline, but rather at the outlet. With such low power consumpion, the battey charge lasts for a long time. It has a built in battery, so I worry a bit about the service life of the battey.I love the feel of the textured surface, and the sleek, sharp lines. I love everything about my Acer Spin 5. It?s a powerhouse of a work laptop, and it?s perfectly suited as such. I think it?s a pretty awesome machine.

  como médico e instructora requiero una herramienta cómoda, fácil de llevar conmigo pero con todas las cualidades de una buena computadora, capacidad de almacenamiento, velocidad de respuesta para las acciones que se requieren al momento de utilizar varias páginas de Internet o documentos, este computador que funciona como tableta a la vez es una belleza y se ajusta a todo lo que estaba buscando, estoy feliz con este producto.

  Fast. 2019 model but still relevant in 2020. Graphics card not for gaming but great for moderate studio art.Light fast and comfortable on lap. Gets rather hot thought. Still better than a 2020 dell cheapo...
