This All-Around Laptop Works Hard and Won't Make Your Wallet Cry

Thanks to technological advances being made every day, it’s getting harder to buy a bad laptop these days. And that’s actually a good problem to have. For someone who’s just looking to upgrade their machine to meet standard computing needs, an overall laptop is best, and the options are endless. However, as with any type of purchase, you’d want to look for something that won’t dent your wallet—something capable yet affordable. 

All-around performance

Meet the Acer Aspire 3 A314-35-P0DC. Although it’s being tagged as an entry-level laptop, it’s anything but basic. It comes with 8GB RAM, a 256GB hard drive storage, an Intel® Pentium Silver processor, and a pre-installed Windows 11 Home operating system—all packed in a slim body and sleek profile. 

The quad-core Intel® Pentium Silver N6000 in the Acer Aspire 3 is fast and reliable enough for most users, especially students, who will use it for casual computing tasks. It runs at 1.10HGz and can go as high as 3.30GHz on turbo speed. 

This means three things: 1. You won’t have to worry about lags, which can be a bummer when you’re multitasking or switching from one app to another. 2. You can upgrade your RAM from 8GB to 16GB if the former feels a bit sluggish for your needs. 3. Your 14-inch screen can handle HD. 

Compact build, polished design

Another feature that we love about the Acer Aspire 3 is its build. Thin and portable, it measures 19.9mm in height and 1.8kg in weight. You can carry it everywhere—whether you’re traipsing around the metro looking for a new coffee shop to work or study in or flitting from one space to another in your house. 

The pure silver finish is also a beauty to look at. It polishes the rounded corners and edges. The keyboard, on the other hand, is classic and simple in black. 

Battery life

With a 36.7Wh (watt-hour) battery capacity, the Acer Aspire 3 can last up to eight hours when fully charged. This means you can work or study longer without the plug—and even stream media in between. 

Affordable price tag

Now, a great laptop typically comes with a hefty price tag. The great news is the Acer Aspire 3 won’t break the bank. You can find deals on laptops like this from Acer and more at Villman via the SM Malls Online app!
