great!
So far so good! I love the touch screen addition. Something (maybe a screw) did come lose a week or so after i got it but it hasn't messed up anything so far. The screw is rolling around in the body of the computer.

Final verdict
The Acer Aspire 3 15.6-inch FHD is a smart pick if you are keeping costs low and focusing on schoolwork, office tasks, and streaming. It feels solid for the price and stays easy to carry day to day.
The trade-offs are a weaker display (often a basic TN panel), modest speakers, and limited headroom for demanding workloads. If you can spend a bit more, look for an IPS screen and stronger performance, but for strict budgets this model covers the essentials well.
Best use cases will be added once review data is available.
