[jjdumb]

Battery is a bummer, no caps lock, Bit of a pain, they say take the battery out and start with mains power - how convenient!. >:D :p :-[ :-X :-X :-\

Great article. I've had mine for nearly a year, no issue's. Great everyday laptop. I need to upgrade RAM as my circumstances have changed and need to load a hungry music software. Can the RAM be replaced and upgraded? Thanks.

The laptop is a bit more than 2 year old. Had to replace the original hard drive and 2 week later, it killed the Western digital black......Have to rma it. If it fails for no reason. I'll never buy acer again since they build junk! Never had any problems like that with Asus laptops.

heb sinds 10-2013 deze laptop heb 3 weken geleden de 3e harde schijf erin gekregen, en het ziet ernaar uit dat de 4e erin moet want hij is weer dood. ga echt nooit meer iets van acer aanschaffen want hij is alleen maar ter reparatie en moet elke keer ergens anders een computer lenen om mijn schoolwerk te maken, de blijdschap die ik had toen ik hem bij elkaar gespaard had en had gekocht is overgeslagen in heel veel verdriet en terleurstelling. bij  de laatste reparatie zou er met ons contact opgenomen worden als er andere dingen dan verwacht zou gebeuren, maar acer vind het niet nodig om met de klant zijn wensen bezig te houden, en als je ze daar op aanspreekt  zijn ze doof. ik kan dit merk door al deze handelingen dus aan niemand aanraden of je moet ze niet .aardig vinden

I think its a really nice laptop. I have one myself but my ram is only 2gb which makes it hard for me to play games. I was going to buy more memory but I don't know how many memory slots there are

Hi, Nice review.
However, should you need a translator who can put German, French or Italian into real, comprehensible English, I would be more than happy to do it for you. No charge

Have this laptop but with only 4GB DDR3 Memory. Its functions are fantastic for school and I'm quite happy with it. Only downside is that it is heavy so sometimes difficult to haul around in a bag.

I bought a Acer Aspire E1-531 Notebook a year ago in 1916.  This version here is only a duo core.  Mine has a quad core.  Why the change?

I've had mine for 7.5 years now - still in daily use. I replaced the fan recently, as well as the DC port, (not expensive - found on Ebay) and I added 4Gb RAM for a total of 8Gb.  It came with Windows 8, but I switched it up to Windows 10 when that came out.  Be careful removing the back, the screws under the hinges should not be removed, and don't need to be to access the inside.
It's mostly used for a backup now, but I still boot it up every day, I suggest changing thew desktop photo every year or so to make it feel new... :-)

i have this computer with moderate uses after ten year of uses still working fine.
i have upgrade ram 8gb and ssd and change battery on such years.
no extra cost and work like very smooth on ubuntu os.
