According to our laptop expert
The Acer Aspire 5 A517-53G-78SG is a 17-inch laptop that's suitable for multitasking and photo and video editing. With the 12th generation Intel Core i7 processor, the laptop reaches higher performances and is more future-proof than older generations. You can edit photos and videos and multitask with demanding programs like Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop. Your photos and videos also render faster thanks to the NVIDI GeForce MX550 video card. In addition, you can play a basic game like The Sims from time to time. With a 17-inch screen, details stand out more and you can work with multiple windows next to each other. Do you also use your laptop at night? The backlit keyboard ensures you can also find the right keys in the dark.

It was time for a new laptop, and this rascal just does what it promises; it runs nice and fast and my girlfriend can Sims carefree for a few hours without having to charge the battery.
Windows 11 takes a bit of getting used to, but it looks sleek and of course has little to do with the laptop itself.

I only tested the laptop briefly, just turned it on and tried some typing and mice. I was really looking for a gaming laptop with a large screen. Before this I had a laptop from work (another brand) and that was really a top thing, unfortunately it is no longer for sale for consumers. So this was my alternative! I must say: the laptop is certainly very large, the keyboard is very small in proportion, with super small keys, which could have taken up much more space. I didn't find the typing itself pleasant either, which is very personal of course, but the keys are quite flat and smooth. I found out that I prefer a black keyboard, especially because I deliberately chose a backlit keyboard. With a silver-colored keyboard you have little contrast, so the fact that it was backlit didn't help me much :-) The mousepad has integrated mouse buttons, so you don't see them loose. However, this was a bad execution, because with every type of mouse on the mousepad (even without using the invisible buttons) you heard a kind of ticking, the mousepad itself seemed to be kind of movable or loose because of these invisible buttons, very I found that disturbing. For myself, I found out that the laptop is too big for me to have on my lap, which I do regularly anyway, so I'm going back to a 15.6 inch screen anyway. I like a big screen for gaming, but it's not handy! Long story short: the 'content' of this Acer is completely up to date (i7 and deca core) and probably great for gaming (I only play Sims-like games), but too big for on my lap and in terms of typing and mice does not quite have the comfort I am looking for. Instead of ordering, I'm going to a store to see various models in real life, and so continue my search for a new laptop :-)

Sound could really be better for the money.
