Design
The Acer Aspire E 15 is not your typical big 15-inch laptop in terms of design. A lot of 15-inch laptops are hulking, thick and bulky, but this one does not follow the trend. For a laptop with such build, the E 15 is light all round.
The laptop pays for this light nature with its flimsiness. Its panels have a muffled quality and its entire build is upsettingly flexible and fragile. Any attempt to lift the machine by its screen could lead to a dent on the laptop. The construction is mostly plastic and it has a slight bend in the lid. The hinge is also quite stiff, as you will have to make use of both hands to open the lid.
Display
The Acer Aspire E 15 has a 15.6-inch Full HD display and it is quite great when you compare it to most budget notebooks, as you will only find a few that has a 1366 x 768 resolution display. The contrast is great, the gamma is also perfect but the brightness is quite low. The display is great for your everyday routine use at work, but is quite average when it comes to watching movies and gaming. Nevertheless, for its price, the overall display quality is quite okay.
Performance
Laptop comes with the 8th generation quad core Intel Core i5 and i7 processors, and has up to 16GB of RAM. It is great a multitasking and never freezes under pressure. You could watch YouTube while keeping several tabs open. The battery life is also averagely good for its level.
The Acer Aspire E 15 is a great performance laptop. Its efficiency make it one of better trading laptops offices and schools. The bulky nature and fragile lid might be an issue, but it is something you can live with.
