Chassis, connectors, screen of the Acer Aspire 5 A515-45-R0MA
All dressed in black, this thin and light versatile laptop sports a discreet look.
It is equipped with a good connectivity composed of 1 USB-C, wi-Fi ax wireless modules (newer and more powerful than Wi-Fi ac) and Bluetooth 5.0 for remote connections and communications, a convenient HDMI video output to easily connect it to a TV or monitor for example, Ethernet and audio ports but also 3 USB all compatible with both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, USB 3.0 guarantees transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you connect USB 3.0 devices.
A priori the chiclet keyboard can be backlit so that its keys are better distinguished in case of limited ambient light.
With its 16/9th aspect ratio and Full HD definition, the screen lends itself well to the display of videos and more generally High Definition content. Its anti-reflective treatment also makes it more readable than a shiny slab in bright environments (e.g. exterior).
Also worth mentioning is the presence of Acer Bluelight Shield technology that attenuates the blue light emitted by the screen.

The Acer Aspire 5 A515-45-R0MA is a 15-inch High Definition laptop for common, multimedia-oriented versatile use.
Those who occasionally perform modest multimedia work, such as photo editing or video conversion, will be satisfied with the good performance provided in this area by this versatile laptop because it integrates an AMD Octo Core APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) Ryzen 7 5700U low-power Lucienne processor associated with 16 GB of RAM.
This heart delivers above all good general performance able to satisfy many users, especially since despite the fact that it does not include a dedicated graphics card, it allows you to watch photos and videos but also to play light titles using the Radeon Vega 8 graphics solution integrated into the Ryzen 7.
Note, however, that if you plan to often perform CPU and RAM demanding processing, it is better to opt for a PC based on a non-low-power processor and / or a suitable dedicated graphics card.
On the storage side, there is an SSD that clearly reinforces responsiveness and fluidity on a daily basis compared to a simple hard disk.
It must be said that an SSD is much faster than the latter while being less energy-intensive, more robust and silent.
In practice thanks to the SSD, the starts/stops are much faster as well as the processing and launching of applications, and we reach faster on the cards of online games is done faster.
With its 512 GB, the SSD offers a similar capacity with the standard of hard drives. But if you need more space, you can use an external storage unit such as a USB-C/USB 3.0 device for fast transfers.
As for the autonomy, bet on about 7 hours of operation on battery in light use for this versatile laptop as easily transportable as an Ultrabook thanks to its finesse and its contained weight.
