Chassis, connectors, screen of the Acer Aspire 5 A515-45G-R714
It adopts a sober appearance with its thin and light black design.
This versatile Ultrabook is well equipped in terms of connectivity with its USB-C, its audio and Ethernet ports, its Wireless Modules Bluetooth 5.1 and Wi-Fi ax (newer and more powerful than Wi-Fi ac) to communicate and connect remotely, its hdmi video output convenient to easily connect it to a TV or monitor for example or its 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 USB 3.0 devices are connected to it.
The fingerprint reader allows biometric authentication on this discreet laptop via Windows Hello technology.
In addition, you can backlight the keys of the chiclet keyboard to better distinguish them in low light atmosphere.
Thanks to its IPS technology, the screen has significant viewing angles, both horizontal and vertical. It also lends itself very well to the display of videos and more generally High Definition content because it adopts a 16/9th format associated with a Full HD definition. Treated anti-reflective, the screen also offers better visibility than a shiny slab in bright environments (e.g. outdoors). In addition, the blue light it emits is attenuated by Acer Bluelight Shield technology.
Performance, battery life of the Acer Aspire 5 A515-45G-R714
The Acer Aspire 5 A515-45G-R714 is for those looking for a 15-inch High Definition laptop for versatile, multimedia-oriented use.
The storage is entrusted to an SSD with a large capacity of 1 TB rivaling what the vast majority of hard drives in this field offer. As a bonus, the SSD offers several advantages: greater impact resistance, lower power consumption, quiet operation or even greater velocity.
Concretely, the SSD ensures a much better responsiveness and fluidity in use than a simple hard disk.
Thanks to the SSD, the starts/stops, processing and launches of applications are much faster for example, and we reach the cards of online games faster.
It is indeed possible to indulge in games not too demanding in 3D resources thanks to the dedicated graphics card AMD Polaris Radeon RX 640. Just like the Radeon Vega 7 graphics solution integrated into the processor, the Radeon RX 640 also allows you to watch photos and videos.
A toggle is made between one and the other automatically and in real time depending on the tasks performed.
While it is less powerful, the Radeon Vega 7 is preferred to the maximum because its reduced power consumption promotes autonomy.
In this regard, bet on about 7 hours of operation on battery in light use. The transport of this versatile Ultrabook is in any case facilitated by its controlled weight and finesse.
The Radeon Vega 7 is directly housed in the Ryzen 7 5700U, AMD Octo Core APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) Lucienne which delivers good overall performance to satisfy many users, especially since it is associated with 16 GB of RAM.
Those who do modest multimedia work using multi-core and RAM will be able to make do with that core, in areas such as photo editing and video conversion.
On the other hand, we benefit from turning instead to a PC with a non-low-power processor if we plan to often perform cpu-intensive work.
