Worse quality.
Old manufacturer, avoid it.
Not many people using, suggested to use ASUS.
My classmates used ASUS too.

Which series model?

Using X and A series no problem.

I'm using one, my sister and my father.

My sister just got new ASUS Laptop replacement from DELL VOSTRO due to Faulty Power Button.

acer main problem is poor quality hdd... so u better put ssd n external drive the hdd

acer hv the best after sales among the 3 taiwan brand (acer, msi, asus),

quality wise only the predator n nitro series r capable to compete wif asus n dell.. the rest can skip de

aspire is their old series... solid build but hdd really meh cry.gif cry.gif

My recommendation on Acer in their product & after sales service.
Bought 2 Acer so far, Acer AMD procs last me 5 years without issue with heavy usage. Acer Nitro at the moment with light usage due to use more on desktop.
No issue so far.

Can't remember. But full HD screen is all I can remember. A year+ back full HD screen was still quite new at RM3000.

Looking at their S13 and R15.

S13 pros

-9 hours battery life
-ssd
-screen

S13 cons
-build quality
-no touch

R15 pros
-touchscreen
-build quality

R15 cons
-2.4kg
-hdd

Which will you get if you use lightroom often?

My 6 years old acer still going strong. No damage whatsoever.. Still running with average 1/2 hourshutdown-ed per WEEK for the past 6 years. Mostly running 24/7.

I'm using adobe softwares almost everyday so imagine the stress for the past 6 years.

I'm using quite high end model for acer (aspire what model forgot. Only Timeline series were more expensive than my lappy at that time.. purchase it almost Rm3k.)

IMO, please buy high end + mass production for acer. Not predator series, buy for me Nitro is quite qood now. Since spare parts are easy to find and they don't dare to mess with their top selling product.

For customer service, I do recommend Acer.. Their southern service center is 5 minutes drive from my house.

I do talk with few laptop salesman in my area. They do prefer Acer if want to go for warranty and support since its nearby and if there's no stuffs in queue, you can get your repairs in less than a day.. Usually few days or one or 2 weeks max.

Better for me la ofcourse.. No need to wait onsite repair like dell.

Don't told me about Asus.. Its like disposable stuffs like razorblades and diapers.

Not many laptops in my price range have above average colour accuracy.
