Acer TravelMate P6 Thin & Light Business Laptop, 14" FHD IPS Touch, Intel Core i7-8565U, NVIDIA MX250, 16GB DDR4, 512GB SSD, 12 Hrs Battery, Win 10 Pro, TPM 2.0, Mil-Spec, FPR, TMP614-51TG-792V

This is a solid laptop, built for the road and for long sessions. The SSD and processor make startup and app functions noticeably fast. The case has a small amount of flex to it, but you really have to try to flex it -- meaning the frame is absolutely stronger than your average plastic-based case. The battery life is very good; I don't get the 20 hours that are promised, but I do get at least 14 per session, minimum. This is definitely a pro-level laptop, one that I suspect I'll be using for may years.That said, there are some drawbacks. First is the price. This is a state-of-the-art laptop, and the high price-tag reflects that. Meaning that many of the features that are good to great are fairly standard on units that cost this much. So I can't say that this is a bargain price-wise as you can get a similar or better laptop from another manufacturer if you are willing to pay this price.Second, the unit I received didn't have the infrared camera mentioned in the specs. And for the price, I'd like some additional inputs. And usability of the pad and the fingerprint sensor isn't always first-rate.Third, Norton Security is preinstalled. It is ridiculously invasive if you don't opt to pay for Norton's service after the trial period ends. You get constant notifications about renewing and there's no way to turn them off via Windows settings. You're reading something on the web and suddenly Norton opens up a tab in your browser that interrupts you and reminds you to pay them. Worst of all, there's no real way to uninstall Norton. Acer tells you to contact Norton, and Norton sends you to a link to download a removal tool that, once used, renders your fingerprint sensor inoperable. You can try to reinstall drivers but the sensor will no longer work. So you just have to do a full reinstall and put up with the non-stop Norton notifications. For the price of this laptop, this is totally unacceptable.

Multiple calls to Acer support and various suggestions have not resulted in a solution: the battery drains from 100% to 0% at a rate of approx. 5% each day when the computer is completely turned off. This is not normal. Laptop batteries usually last several months in computers that are completely switched off.The next step according to Acer is to send in the laptop for warranty repair. But: Acer does not cover shipping to the repair center: customers must pay themselves to return faulty products to the company.So not only have I received a defective product, I also have the privilege of paying to get it shipped to the manufacturer to get it repaired...

Unboxing the laptop, turning it on and it says no bootable device.... a waste of money, also bought an acer predator and it came with problems, just dont buy acer products

Super light, super fast, looong battery life. The fingerprint reader is hit or miss.. it’s all about holding your finger on the pad for precisely the right amount of time.. two seconds usually does it. If that fails it’s super easy and quick to sign in with a 4 digit code of your choosing. So glad I got this and not the Lenovo Thinkpad. I use a Thinkpad for work and it’s great.. a real workhorse, but this is just as good and lighter so it’s great for travel.

I like itIt works but the finger reader does not work with my old coot fingers maybe my finger is worn out hitting the channel change button for the tv not sure
