...insurance and was sent an Acer Aspire 5315. It costs around £300 to buy in the shops, placing it at the bottom end of the price range for laptops at the moment, which vary from £300 to over £1000.
Basically the laptop comes with 1GB memory and 80GB hardrive. It has a 15'' screen and built in wireless technology.
APPEARANCE
It's quite bulky and very heavy, with the top half (screen and back of the screen) being black and the keyboard being a horrible ... ...Laptop also comes with:
ACER GAMEZONE - a selection of trial versions of games. Some are pretty decent and can be addictive, however they are only trial versions and you only get about 60 minuits to play each game before you have to buy the full version.
NORTON INTERNET SECURITY - Anti virus, but again a trial version
Software to enable you to watch DVD's (ACER ARCADE) and burn CD's.

Acer Aspire 5315
I got my acer 5315 as part of a deal from the carphone warehouse with a mobile phone contract, so i won't say it was free because I have an 18 month contract to pay for, but it was a really good deal!! Having shopped around a bit they cost around £270-£300 to buy. I'm no computer whizz and just wanted a reliable laptop to do my work and access the internet on, this is ideal. I had never heard of acer until my boyfriend got one of ... ...is all black with the acer logo in silver in the middle. The screen surround is black and the keyboard is pale grey. The keyboard has quick keys at the top for WLAN settings and volume. It also features a green 'e' button in the top right corner, when pressed your WLAN signal and connection details and battery status come up on screen, this is quite handy. The keyboard and touch pad are both very comfortable to use and screen resolution is good.

The trial is for 30 days which is good as you can have a play about with it as you get used to the new features that Vista has compared to XP rather than worrying about having to install all your applications on straight away.
I used to take the laptop back and for university 5 days a week. The laptop is very light and easy to carry, even though seems a little wider than a normal notebook laptop, ...

Advantages: Playing Games, and Browsing the Internet, Built in Wifi.. Disadvantages: Slow when loading multi Programs,
...old Laptop got broke. Acer are quite a good company, and sell quite a lot of good laptops and this Aspire 5315 is idel for someone who just want's to use Microsoft Office or browse the internet. But if your looking to chat away on msn, listen to music and browse the Internet all at the same time. I would strongly recomend going for a bigger and better laptop. Don't get me wrong this Aspire 5315 does do well playing games such as Rollercoaster Tycoon ... ...The keys on the keyboard are not that very well placed onto the laptop. As I had accidently dropped my phone onto the keyboard when 1 letter had come out, and was unable to place back in. The 15.4 LCD Screen is awesome, for watching widescreen movies and playing those really cool games. Such as Rollercoaster Tycoon.. This Laptop doesn't come with a built in webcam, unlike the other Aspire Laptop that is 1 up from this one. I was quite gutted about ...

Advantages: Widescreen, good memory, easy to use, not bulky Disadvantages: Not a long battery
Last Christmas my parents bought me this Laptop for my studies and for general use. This Laptop has been brilliant, i have knocked it off the table (by accident) and it was absolutly fine. It is slim, looks smart and easy to use. It has a very clear 15.4inch screen and an 80G ram. I have stored 4000 songs, and many many photos on here and it is still running as fast and clear as it did when I first got it. The price for this Laptop was bery good, ... ...high quality. It comes with games, and you can personalise it to make it personal to your taste, such as colours and themes. The keys are easy to read, it doesnt make any loud whirring noises and plays music back very well. I would highly recommend it for anyone buying their first laptop, or buying it for their children. Its very good for watching films. In my opinion, its only flaw is that the battery lasts for 2 hours, but on economy mode, it can ...

Advantages: Looks great, not too expensive, perfect for home/work. Disadvantages: Not good for games, loose items on laptop, rushed instructional booklet.
This is a laptop that's rating soley depends on what the laptop would be used for; for example, this laptop is not sufficient enough for the latest games, yet it works fine as a work accompanient and indeed, a home workstation: it even performs well as a video/music device.
Set up is very fast and the system is very reliable (excusing Vista's slow response times) and has never broken down on me for the year I have owned it.
The price is also good ... ...- as I have already mentioned, it's not suitable for gaming.
However, there are some downpoints, the keys on the keyboard can sometimes be very loose and the touchpad sometimes unresponsive - the padding on the the side of the screen also can come loose easily. Navigation of folders on the actual system can also be slow. The instruction booklet is not so helpful and seems rushed in certain places. It's also very portable, and has a sufficient hard ...

Advantages: Price, look, reliability Disadvantages: Memory size, but adequate for basic users
I got my Acer Aspire 5315 as the freebie laptop when I signed up for mobile broadband at the Carphone Warehouse. I knew if there was no extra cost for it it would be a lower end of the market machine, which it is, however I'm pleasantly surprised. It's not a machine which has a huge capacity, 1GB and 80GB hard drive, but for users like me who just want to store a few current documents and photos and surf the net it's more than adeqaute. The 15.4" ... ...and the laptop is as pretty as any closed, if a little cheaper looking on the inside. Mine has been running without any hitches and start up time is excellent. A few minor quirks to get used to... the touch sensitve mouse pad is quite rough to the touch and a little jerky and the disc drawer is a stubborn old thing, you need to slam it closed. Not a bad under £300 buy. You get what you pay for as far as the spec goes but if you want a reliable little ...

I find it light, extremely reliable. I did choose the basic Windows package as I have no need for all the pointless extras and the Celeron works well.
