Acer - Aspire Vero - Green PC Laptop - 15.6” Full HD - 12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U - 8GB DDR4 - 512GB Gen 4 SSD - Gray - Cobblestone Gray

Use this for my small business. Perfect addition to my workspace. Beautiful display, dependable, going on one year and I have no complaints. Highly recommends for basic business design & marketplace/website functions.

This is an amazing device. I’d recommend highly to anyone in need of a laptop right now. I really like the Matt finish on the body

Great little laptop for my needs. A little confused about with they letters R & E on the keyboard are backwards. I’m sure there is an explanation.

Excellent laptop with good specs. No issues or concerns since getting it and it is made of recyclable material which is always a plus.

Used the laptop only a handful of times now Windows 11 will not boot up.

Hi my name is Larry. I bought this laptop when it was priced at $499 on Friday February 3rd, 2023. I had been searching for a laptop for a while. I just upgraded from a Dell Inspiron 7373 (Intel i7) from 2017 that i messed up, apparently i deleted some files from the bios menu off the hard drive and that was it...it got screwed up and became glitchy, nothing worked, i tried fixing it 3 times myself being a tech guy that i am. Anyway, i found this laptop and was comparing the specs to other laptops that was around the same price point. It's so amazing how i was able to pick up a Laptop with: An Intel i5 1235u(10 core, 12 Threads) 8GB DDR4 Memory, and 512GB SSD Storage for $499 in 2023 when back in 2017 i bought a Dell Inspiron Intel Core i7 8550u(4 Core, 8 Threads) 16 GB DDR4 Memory and 256GB SSD Storage for $1,100 I looked up the performance difference between the 2 Intel Chips on https://gadgetversus.com/ and i was shocked that i was getting double/triple the performance of an old Intel i7 Chip (8th Gen) inside of a Intel i5 Chip (12th Gen) based off of Cinebench scores. I recently purchased a Corsair Vengeance 16GB DDR4 Ram Stick to install inside the Acer Aspire Vero Green PC Laptop and according to the specifications on Best Buy, this specific laptop can hold about a maximum of 20GB Ram (4GB onboard + 16GB installed through the slot) which is great for me! After being new to Windows 11, i personally find that 8GB Ram/Memory is low for this operating system, considering that i use this laptop for multi-tasking, and, after doing some research online, i found out that Windows 11's Ram Requirements are 4GB Minimum. I did do some testing on other laptops at Best Buy that had Windows 11 and found that most of them were already at 70% of memory usage while having their best buy demos running. This laptop i have tested it and it seems to be using 45-55% Memory Usage when i start it up, for me, that's a lot of memory usage hence why i decided to upgrade to 20GB. Also, me having ADHD doesn't help one bit with the 8GB of ram lol. Another thing i like about this laptop is that according to it's packaging and marketing / advertising, it's super eco-friendly! and it's made with Recycled Parts. FOR ALL OF YOU THAT ARE WONDERING WHY THE R AND E KEYS ARE BACKWARDS, I BELIEVE THAT HAS TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT MOST OF THIS LAPTOP WAS MADE WITH (RE)cycled PARTS, SO THAT'S WHY THEY FLIPPED THE R AND E KEYS TO EMPHASIZE ON THE RECYCLING ASPECT OF THE LAPTOP. Sorry for caps lock, just trying to make sure everyone reads that part LOL OTHER THINGS: - Keys are back-lit and have 2 levels of brightness - Keys do feel good, and they are quiet. - This laptop does come with a finger-print sensor mounted on the top-left corner of the trackpad but i haven't tested it - Speakers are okay/decent. - The Laptop does have a raised-hinge effect where once you open the laptop past a certain point the bottom part will raise off the surface slightly to provide better air-flow to the laptop. - The laptop does not feel cheap in anyway, even though most of it is made with recycled parts, nothing feels cheap at all. - I am still doing testing as i just got this laptop about less than 2 weeks ago, as time does go by, i will edit and update this review. THANKS: - Thank you so much for taking the time and energy to read my review, i greatly appreciate it. i hope you stay safe, well, and blessed. Have a wonderful day/night. :)

great value for proce. i love that its made from refurbished materials, im not an envirnmental activist but making the choice to help the envirnment counts when you can. i do wish the battery life was way better when it comes to not being plugged up and the speaker could be better.

I bought this laptop for school. I really like that its made of post consumer recycled materials. The keyboard is backlit, which doesnt make a difference to me honestly. The R and the E are facing backwards as well and against doesn't matter to me. The battery life could use some improvement. After working just a few hours I have to plug it in. Ive had no issues using it with canvas, cengage or on line live lesson site. My only complaint so far is the batterylife isnt greay. Overall I would purchase this laptop again.
