Bought for Embroidery, Ended Up a Powerhouse
I know nothing about laptops, but I needed one that could handle my embroidery software. I followed the program’s specs and got a little help picking this one — and wow, it’s amazing. It runs everything smoothly, super fast, and looks sleek too. Easy setup.. as obviously I was able to do it! I was told it’s even better than a gaming laptop (no idea how true that is, but I’m running stitches like a champ). Great price, great quality, and now my teen boys are officially jealous. 😂

So impressed with this laptop.
What can I say, I purchased this laptop as a low cost option to use for office applications and some video viewing. I was completely impressed with the expansion options with this laptop. First you can install 2 thats right 2 nvme drives inside the laptop for redundant storage. The laptop works great with Windows or Linux.I thought I would try maxing this baby out by overloading it. I setup 29 docker containers running proxy server, and other services simultaneously. Also attached dual hard drive caddies to all of the usb ports setting up RAID across all of the disks. The laptop passed with flying colors.

Good laptop, bad price as of now
At the time I bought it, it was great value. However nowadays the prices for computers overall has jumped so it is less worth it and I would advise waiting for prices to go down or buying a cheaper laptop for now then once prices go down, getting a better one. Its not anything amazing but capable enough for light productivity work (runs unity at an acceptable rate, though compiling scripts takes longer than it should) and low performance games like Minecraft (I recommend doing bedrock edition or using sodium to optimize performance on java) and Stardew Valley (runs smoothly out of box).Should you buy it right now? No, probably not. However if it ever goes on sale or dips to under 400, though I doubt it'll do that for a while. And by the time it does, there's probably a better value laptop on the market.

Major problem after a year and a half
I have only had it a year and a half. I replaced the charging cord several months back. Today, I had to reset the battery because it didn't recognize the battery as fully charged and would not boot up. The port to charge it is extremely loose. I have never had a laptop perform so poorly. Staying away from Acer!

Review after 10 months.
REVIEW UPDATED (taking 2 stars off):After 10 months of usage, the screen flickers randomly and sometimes goes completely black (but it seems to happen on and off, for example was constant a couple weeks ago then stopped again this week). It really can't handle gaming because it gets so hot to the point its dangerous for the hardware. I still use this as my main laptop for work everyday, and i honestly am going to keep doing so as long as i possibly can. Forced to get windows 11 and it sucks but you just get used to it (reminds me of being forced to upgrade from windows 7, i was livid). So far battery life is still pretty great for just using chrome and a few low intensive apps like discord, spotify, and light work programs. Taking two stars off at 10 months in because if the screen flickers like this then it will probably go caput sooner than later and if you rely on it for work like me that doesn't make you feel very secure in purchasing it.

Very Satisfied
I love my Ace laptops! This is the second one I've purchased. Love it. Plenty of power for my internet use. I'm not gaming, just normal stuff.
