Would it have cost less to get a system with similar specs a year or two ago? (Or a better spec'd system for this price)

What is AI ready? This looks to be just a basic netbook.

If this have an open 2280 nvme slot, it might be worth it to expand the storage with random nvme drives i have laying around.

"AI ready" is completely useless marketing speak for this laptop. If the company had to explain it they might say "You can access the web and use an AI tool like Gemini or ChatGPT."

Just goes to show, the term "AI" is being thrown around everywhere, haphazardly and sloppily. Even for things that clearly do not utilize it.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank FatFaluz

It appears that this 2025 model (AG15-32P-39R2, i5-N355 Twin Lake-N, codename Twix2_TKN) DOES have upgradable RAM according to the Lifecycle Extension Guide PDF https://global-download.acer.com/...ER&SC=PA_6

Most online reviews and teardowns (from LaptopMania and LON.TV) are for the previous 2024 model (AG15-31P-3947, i3-N305 Alder Lake-N, codename Twix_ADN) that has soldered RAM (and the corresponding Lifecycle Extension Guide does show soldered. I was expecting that Acer would just keep the same motherboard for these low-end models (and upgradability isn't a priority for the demographic that buys these cheap laptops). Also the old model has (1) USB-C port and (1) coax power jack (and coax AC adapter) whereas this model has (2) USB-C ports for power.

Also, this laptop was $250 during Prime Days in July. Good deal for a new laptop (even though these N-series CPUs aren't my cup of cake).

If this is the case, it is a great basic computer, though you would have to spend more to upgrade the ram. But according to intel website the max n355 support is 1 channel 16GB. Meaning you will need to buy one 16GB ddr5 sodimm stick to upgrade this laptop to something more usable RAM.

It might be referring to the keyboard having a copilot key?

Yes, and Acer has some AI gimmick going on too.

I got this for my mom: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/leno...Id=6610891

Seems similarly specced.. n305 is just a little below the n355 on the model here.

I prefer lenovo for build quality tho

It also has the "5" key, but we don't call it a Fives-ready laptop.
