Acer has a complete line of laptops, especially in the mainstream class which are in great demand by Indonesian consumers. One of them is the Acer Aspire 5 Slim A514-55. With a fairly competitive price, this device can be an ideal choice for students, students, and office employees.

Curious as to what his abilities? Come on, just look at Yangcanggih.com’s review for the Acer Aspire 5 Slim A514-55!

Slim and lightweight

The Acer Aspire 5 Slim A514-55 is a 14-inch laptop with a fairly slim and light body. It is 17.90mm thick and weighs 1.49 kilograms. A combination that makes it comfortable to carry on your daily activities.

The design is minimalist but elegant. The external appearance can be considered clean, by only placing a small Acer logo on one side without any other additional ornaments. The variant we are reviewing this time is the Gold color.

As soon as the screen is opened more than 90 degrees, the elevated-style hinge makes the keyboard part slightly raised and the typing sensation becomes even better. In addition, this design also provides extra space for heat dissipation from the fan at the bottom.

The material feels solid with an aluminum top cover which is also premium and doesn’t get dirty easily by finger marks. Make you more confident when you wear it during meetings with clients, or when you take it to schools or campuses for students.

The keyboard is just standard, but it’s still comfortable for fast typing and of course it’s equipped with a two-level backlit. Under the keyboard there is a touchpad that is not too large in size, and also houses a fingerprint sensor.

For port availability, on the right side there is USB 3.1 Gen 1, Audio jack combo, and Kensington Lock. While on the left Acer buried a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port with USB Charging, USB 3.2 Gen 1, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1, RJ-45 Lan, and a power connector. SD card slots? Unfortunately no.

IPS screen

The Aspire 5 Slim A514-55 carries a 14-inch IPS screen with Full HD 60Hz resolution LED-backlit TFT LCD. Acer doesn’t forget to add the Comfy View feature to make it more comfortable to look at for a long duration.

As far as our usage goes, there’s nothing to complain about on the Aspire 5 Slim A514-55’s screen. The picture is sharp enough and the color presentation is okay. There’s nothing special about the color accuracy, because it’s not designed for needs such as photo/video editing or graphic design.

The bezels around the screen are quite large, especially at the top and bottom. At the top of the screen, you are presented with an HD webcam whose quality is decent enough to simply take part in meetings or online classes on Zoom. Talking a little about audio, this laptop is supported by stereo speakers with a quality that is mediocre for us.

Standard job seamless performance

The Aspire 5 Slim A514-55 is armed with an Intel Core i5-1235U 10-core 12-thread up to 4.4GHz with Intel Turbo Boost technology. While the graphics rely on Intel UHD Graphics, you can activate Intel Iris Xe provided you upgrade the memory to dual-channel.
