2.0 out of 5 stars old 5400rpm magnetic hard-drive makes laptop not usable, January 23, 2018

This review is from: Acer Aspire R 2-in-1 Convertible 15.6 Inch FHD IPS Touchscreen Laptop, Intel Core i5-7200U, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB HDD, Backlit Keyboard, HDMI, Bluetooth, 802.11ac, Windows 10- Aluminum chassis (Personal Computers)
Not usable with the hard drive that comes with the laptop. 5400rpm magnetic hard-drive is old technology that is still marketed because cheaper than solid-state hard-drive. I got this laptop just for surfing the internet and organizing photos, but the laptops got stuck grinding the hard drive quite often slowing down even internet apps. Barely usable. I ended up more than once using my phone while waiting for the laptop to unfreeze.

I eventually swapped the HD with a solid-state one (500GB, $150), and finally the laptop works fast and smooth. Save yourself some time and get a laptop that comes with ssd hd, othewise there is no point to pay extra money for a fast CPU and large RAM. I am really surprised how Acer can sell a laptop that is practially not usable with such a hd bottleneck.

5.0 out of 5 stars 1080p screen is very good in almost any light and angle, December 17, 2017

Well priced laptop. Battery life is ok. 1080p screen is very good in almost any light and angle. Touch screen can be a bit laggy sometimes so get a stylus if you are wanting to use it in tablet mode often. Also no ethernet port so get an adapter if needed
