The Acer Aspire 3 A317-32-C6WY is a 17-inch laptop designed for basic everyday use.

As it embeds a hard drive with a large capacity of 1000 GB, this large format computer will interest those who wish to take advantage of high capacity storage.
As for the autonomy of this PC whose weight close to 3 Kg does not facilitate transport, expect about 5 hours of battery operation in light use. It adopts a comfortable format for a predominantly sedentary use (ex: at home
