Performance, battery life of Acer Aspire 5 A514-53

The Acer Aspire 5 A514-53 is a compact High Definition laptop computer designed for everyday use on the go.

Those who need to use their PC for a whole day\’s work (and more!) Will be delighted that this Ultrabook can last around 9 hours on battery in light use. In addition, it is easy to transport thanks to its lightness, compactness and finesse.

To achieve that much battery life, this sleek silver laptop relies on energy-efficient components like its low-power Core i3-1005G1 Turbo Ice Lake processor.
It is here coupled with 8 GB of RAM, a very useful quantity in multitasking, enough to obtain good performance in everyday use, such as surfing the Internet and office automation.

However, you should know that the Intel Core i3, AMD Ryzen 3 and less powerful processors show their limits under applications requiring processor resources.
That said, the Core i3 Turbo are significantly more efficient than the non-Turbo Core i3s (Core i3-7xxxU and predecessors).

Dedicated graphics card point embedded in this Ultrabook, which is logical given its positioning. However, thanks to the modest benefits of the Intel UHD 620 solution integrated into the Core i3 Tiger Lake, you can watch photos and videos with this thin and light laptop PC.

On the storage side, Acer has chosen an SSD here that is more robust than a hard drive but also less energy-consuming, silent and much faster.

Concretely thanks to the SSD, we benefit from a much better reactivity and fluidity on a daily basis than with a hard drive, which implies much faster software launches as well as starts / stops.

If the 256 GB offered here by the SSD are sufficient for many uses, this capacity is however lower than the standard of hard disks.

But in case you need more space, you can always use an external storage unit. Favoring a USB-C / USB 3.0 device then represents an interesting option for obtaining fast transfers.
