Not worth it. Might as well get this Acer at $319 with an IPS 1080 display. Only thing you'll want to do is add more ram. If you want to upgrade the hard drive you can do that also and there should be an empty slot for ssd.

For the same price, you can get the Ryzen 5 Motile from Walmart [walmart.com]. It has a better display, better CPU, better form-factor, just better all-around. I know, no-name laptop from Walmart, but I've been using it for a week now (comes with Windows 10, but I put Ubuntu Linux on it), and I've been completely happy with it. Typing this message on it right now.

That definitely looks like a better deal. I'm curious about the quality of the hinges and general build quality, how durable do you think it is?

I've only had it for a week, so I can't speak to the long-term durability, but so far, it's really good. It's obviously not a Macbook Pro or anything, but it's really thin, really light, and the hinges are very reasonable. There's a sub-reddit with some discussion over here [reddit.com].

Just finished setting up the Acer Aspire 5 and upgrading the RAM another 8GB for a total of 12GB. Cost $319+$30 (8gb) + tax and 5% off with Amazon card. Very happy with it so far as a non-gaming, at-home work machine - nice display, feels sleek/sturdy/light, and the light-up keyboard & keypad is a nice bonus.

This was the same laptop that was on sale during Black Friday for $279 so we missed out on that.

I'm waiting for the 3500U 8Gb version to drop in price. Currently, it's sitting at 499. Thanks for the review on the unit! I'm sure it's similar to the 3500U.
