Acer Extensa EX5620-4020 15.4-inch Widescreen Laptop

Fireman (06-Aug-2008)

Very cool buy for budget minded laptop buyers. It has everything you need and gives more than you expect. It will perform all the basic laptop tops and includes a webcam and a nice optical drive. The included 2 gigs of RAM and 358 MB video memory is more than I expected with a $600 laptop. The Vista OS is a total treat. It's a platform you learn to love. It needs at the minimum the 1.73 GHz Intel Pentium Duo Core processor. It could probably use a 2.2 GHz. The 15.4-inch display is excellent for work tasks, games and watching programming. A wireless card and 802.11b/g is included.

Absolutely none so far. My expectations were medium range and this has exceeded all my expectations.

In my opinion you will not find a better priced and more inclusive laptop on the market today. It has all the features you want and a few that turn out to be a pleasant surprise. An example is the Express Card slot, webcam and the optical drive. It is a good performer, but not perfect.

The webcam is quite good on the 15.4-inch brilliant display. The included Vista OS works effortlessly on the Intel Duo Core processor with a 1.73 GHz speed. Downloading content to the notebook is fast and easy. The four USB ports allow me to connect up a digital camera, camcorder and other devices. Excellent 2 GB RAM with a 250 GB hard drive. Includes optical drive, wireless card, 802.11b/g network and graphics for playing games. The cost is unbelievable.

The Vista OS seems a little sluggish to me. I like all the basic laptop features including the webcam and optical drive. I do not particularly like the sound and feel of the keyboard.

You are getting a good overall laptop for doing everyday tasks. In addition, you are getting a laptop with a better than average 1.73 GHz processor. It has wireless capability, an Express Card Slot, webcam and an optical drive for burning CDs/DVDs. It has plenty of memory with a 2 GB RAM and a 250 GB hard drive with an additional 358 MB video memory. Best of all is the less than $600 price tag.

A good 1.73 GHz Intel Pentium Duo Core processor. Brilliant 15.4-inch color display. Comes with Vista OS and 2 GB RAM with a 250 GB hard drive. Wireless network 802.11b/g with Express Card slot and an above average optical drive for burning CDs. Excellent component slots including 4-USB ports. Graphics accelerator included. Good overall notebook for less than $600.

The keyboard is a little flimsy. It could be a little more comfortable and solid sounding when hitting the keys. I am not a Vista fan and I would have preferred an XP OS.

It's hard to find a notebook with a 1.73 GHz Duo Core processor with 2 GB RAM and a really nice optical drive for this price range. In fact, it has a whole lot going for it. It weighs a mere 6.4-pounds and is easily portable. The 15.4-inch display is above average and I have watched TV, played HD games with great success. The webcam works reasonably well. I don't like the keyboard touch, but it is not a deal breaker. I am satisfied with the overall performance.

This is not the best machine, but if you need a laptop for usual tasks ,this one would be a good choice. Some people don't like the keyboard, it's not the best, a bit uncomfortable, but I used to it. Lots of hard drive space for music files and pictures. It also has a Webcam So if you want a great laptop for low price, this is the one.

bright display
good ram
built-in web cam

2 GB RAM and a 250 GB hard drive. It's a basic computer that doesn't do much.

Great laptop with built-in web cam. The speakers are on the bottom, they're aren't very loud. I love it. But if you're not a Vista-fan, you may be a bit disappointed))
