Acer Aspire 5735Z Review

 

The Acer Aspire 5735Z is a low-priced mainstream notebook with a 15.6”, 16:9 aspect ratio display. It retails for less than $500 and has reasonable build quality, a full keyboard with number pad, and decent battery life

Good build quality ; Beautiful screen ; Comfortable keyboard ; Decent performance ; Two hours and fifty minutes of battery life ; Excellent wireless ; Runs cool and quiet

Could use a few more input/output ports ; Loud touchpad buttons ; Lots of pre-loaded junk software

Love it!!!

I've had this laptop for almost a year now and haven't had any problems. I spent years trying to look for my first "perfect" laptop and when I saw this one I knew I had to get it. However, I got it for way less in Best Buy ($349+). I haven't had any...

Good performance and price

Easy to get up and running - great screen and good performance. Good value for money and performs as advertised. Only criticism is that the glossy case shows finger prints and is difficult to keep clean.

Screen had to be fixed twice for flickering within 8 months

 

Screen had to be fixed twice for flickering within 8 months

I like Acer products EXCEPT for the fact that I had to shell out shipping costs twice because the laptop's screen was flickering badly after just 3 months. AND, they didn't fix it right and/or good enough (the first time) because 5 months later, they...
