The laptop is pretty decent. Backlit keyboard is cool but feels a little delicate..not a big deal though. Had issues with the wifi connection dropping randomly but uninstalled the driver and installed newer driver from Acer's website (Please see that if you check the driver already installed it says the driver is up to date. But there is another latest driver on Acer website. So you will need to manually uninstall the current driver and install the newer driver). No more issues with the wifi dropping so far. Got a nice deal from Amazon. The speakers are great. Need to get used to Windows 8. Touchscreen is nice. The battery lasts about 4-4.5 hrs. Laptop is sleek and looks fancy. Touchpad is not upto the mark, but again that's not a deal breaker. Some people complained of fan noise on similar model series, but it was minimal and unnoticeable. Will definitely recommend this laptop.

I purchased this computer mostly for wifi use and traveling. When I first tried it slow would have been to kind of a word. Windows 8 was another issue but that is training more that a problem. I brought up the task manager, ctrl, alt, del and watched the resource meter. Symantec was eating more than 50% of the resources and even more during an update. I removed Symantec and installed Kaspersky instead and it made a huge difference. I installed Classic Start 8, which s free and the computer now works as I hoped it would. Hope this helps

I saw all the other reviews and recommendations for reloading the wifi driver and accomplished that no problem and have had no problem with connectivity with my router. On the other hand, the touch pad is WAY TOO TOUCHY! and is large enough to be around my hands no matter what I'm doing on the PC typing. For example, while I've been typing this response, the screen has been jumping all over the place and jumped to the START screen before I could push the ESC key.
I placed two calling cards on either end of the pad, but that has only been partially successful in keeping the touch pad deadened to my touch.
I really like the computer, but will find a way to deaden the touch pad more to keep it.
