Acer A pire 5 15.6" Overview

Combine work and play with the 15.6” Aspire 5 Laptop from Acer. Designed for surfing, streaming, and general computing tasks, this laptop features a 2.1 GHz Intel Core i3-8145U Dual-Core CPU, as well as 8GB of DDR4 RAM for responsive performance. You can store files or media on the 256GB SSD, or utilize a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A or Type-C port, or two USB 2.0 ports to connect extra peripherals like external drives and docks. Or, connect to wireless devices and the internet via Bluetooth 4.2 and dual-band Wi-Fi 5, respectively. A wired Gigabit Ethernet connection is also possible, thanks to an RJ45 port.

Sporting Intel UHD Graphics 620 graphics, this laptop also comes with a 1920 x 1080 LCD display incorporating Acer BlueLightShield and Color Intelligence features, as well as a webcam. For folks who crave more screen space, an extra display can be connected via the HDMI 1.4 port. Additionally, the Acer Aspire 5 features a keyboard with a number pad and an SD card reader, while its battery life can last up to 7 hours on a single charge. Running on the Windows 10 Home Operating System, the Aspire 5 comes with a charging cable.

Color Intelligence
Color Intelligence dynamically adjusts gamma and saturation in real-time, optimizing screen color, brightness, and saturation without clipping and over saturation.
Acer Bluelight Shield
Acer Bluelight Shield allows users to control how much blue light is used to display an image. By lowering levels of blue light, users can lessen purported negative effects of blue light exposure. You can adjust Acer Bluelight Shield settings using the Acer Quick Access application.
The Power of Sound and Voice
Turn up the music with Acer TrueHarmony, bringing you deeper bass and more volume through its signature speaker design. Command your PC with hands-free ease and experience the freedom of voice control with support for Microsoft Cortana, as well as Amazon Alexa when used with compatible Amazon products and an Amazon account.
Start Menu
After its hiatus in Windows 8, the Start Menu has returned. Utilizing a combination of the traditional menu system and Windows 8's Live Tiles, the improved Start Menu gives you more information at a glance, showing notification information alongside your applications and other pinned items.
Cortana
Microsoft's digital personal assistant, Cortana can answer your questions with information gleaned from both your device and the internet at large. You can type or even talk with her, if your system has a microphone. Using her Notebook, Cortana keeps track of your needs and wants, and she learns over time to improve her information gathering skills.
Microsoft Edge
After nearly 20 years, Microsoft has finally replaced its Internet Explorer web browser. With Microsoft Edge, users can write directly on web pages and share notes with friends and colleagues. It also improves the online reading experience by adding a distraction-free mode and read-it-later functionality. Edge also has built-in Cortana integration; you can have her help you find a restaurant, make a reservation, and pull up directions without leaving your browser.
Windows Store
For Windows 10, Microsoft has unified the Windows Store. Now, apps for PCs, tablets, and phones will all be accessible from one place. And with support for Universal Apps, one version of an app can work across all your compatible devices automatically.
Windows Continuum
Windows 10 was designed for a variety of screen sizes and input styles, and with its Continuum feature, it automatically adapts to fit your needs. A Windows 10 tablet on its own requires a touch-centric approach, but attaching a mouse and keyboard will shift everything to a more traditional interface. You can even attach an external monitor to your Windows 10 phone for a near-desktop experience. But it's not just the operating system; Windows Universal Apps take advantage of Continuum as well.
Xbox on Windows 10
Gaming is a big focus of Windows 10. Xbox integration allows for PC players to match up against Xbox One players on supported games, and if you have an Xbox One, you can even stream compatible titles to your PC. Native support for recording with the new Game DVR feature makes it easy to capture and share your gameplay. The new DirectX12 takes better advantage of multi-core processors, giving games a performance boost, even on older hardware. Windows 10 also features native support for virtual reality headsets, such as the Oculus Rift.
