I'm just gonna come out and say it before the AMD misinformed police show up and poop all over this post. This is not a bad processor. It's NOT a processor from 2019 like many people make it out to be. Yes it is zen2 but it's not a cpu from 2019/2020 on a 7nm node, it's a recently made 6nm node, with DDR5 and RDNA graphics instead of Vega. It's more efficient than zen 2 from 2020 and more powerful. AMD is doing something interesting where they are taking zen 2 and zen 3 and making them again on SMALLER nanometer nodes. All the AMD police on slickdeals get this wrong and make it sound like AMD was going into scrap piles and taking old chips and recycling them. This is NOT that. The older chips were 7nm, you can't turn a 7nm chip into a 6nm chip. It's not possible. Once it's made it's done. But AMD is finding ways to use really good cpu architectures and finding good uses for them. The newest stuff is really expensive to make, at least they are trying to find ways to make chips cheaper and more useful.

Now having said that. This is a touch screen with 1TB ssd. But it's Acer. I've had nothing but bad experiences with Acer in the last 5 years. I know several people with older models of this and the hinges often break. But I don't have any experience with this exact model. Maybe Acer got their act together now? But me personally I would rather get a refurbished HP Elitebook at this price and look for ryzen 5000 or 6000. But a larger screen touch screen is hard to come by. You can get an HP Elitebook 850 or 855 series with touch screens but I can say their older models like the G5 has the dimmest screen ever like 220 nits. So does anyone see the screen brightness for this touch screen?
