I'm going to be that guy (x2) -- anyone know if the ram is upgradable? I know it has a dedicated charge port, but can it also charge via usb-c?

RAM not upgradable, can charge over USB c. Display is not great, resolution is okay but very washed out for the colors.

Dave2D did a great video on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDmRpcQQPUo&t=0s

I wish they would've done a 3:2 display... that one still has the intel processor but is out of stock.

It can be charged thru usb-c but you need a better charging outlet, i heard the ram wasnt upgradble tho

Ordered mine last night its a decent machine for gaming and fast for everyday use, i need this for school and some "gaming" cheap enough for college kids that needed a machine. The only downside i heard is the screen doesnt have a good color accuracy and wasnt bright enough to use outdoors but other than that the specs are good for the price

Yea like others have mentioned, sadly the display is where they seemed to have cut costs, see below for a review of the display:

Man if these stupid manufacturers would solder in 16gb of ram, costing them an extra $60, and sold it for an extra $100 I'd buy so hard my cc would break.

Does this have a touchscreen? There's nothing about it on the Amazon page at all.

I find it odd that Acer's own website you can't find any AMD laptops for sale.

Anyone else sell this besides Amazon?

yes , soldered is fine if they have at least 16 GB on it, that will future proof it for at 3-4 years.

8GB to run Windows 10 with some memory hungry applications is a challenge.
