Budget laptops are among manufacturers top selling notebooks. Acer's doing a booming business because all of Acer's products have the budget minded shopper in mind. While their product line may be more unknown than some of the other more popular manufacturers it is no reason to stay away. The truth his Acer has been around for years but they've never spent a dime on advertising. The result can be seen in their low prices. With that being said this review is going to address one of their best selling notebooks the Aspire 5715-4713. I have my hands on one and I'm going to let you know what you can expect from it, and if it is worth your dough. Let me start with the basics.

Hardware:

Display: 15.4″

Processor: 1.73GHz Intel Pentium Dual-Core T2370

RAM: 2GB

Storage Space: 160GB Hard Drive

Optical Drive: A CD R/RW with integrated Dual Layer DVD +/- R RW

Imaging: Integrated Webcam

Weight: 6.2lbs

Graphics Accelerator: Integrated Intel graphics Media Accelerator X3100 (that uses shared system resources)

When you take it out of the box it looks like a typical notebook. It is just standard silver there are no waves or Asian inspired patterns. I find that a little refreshing in this day and age of covering everything in some sort of bizarre graphic. The 15.4″ screen is slightly reflective and presents itself clear and crisp but isn't the best screen I've ever seen. It does fine in high light

The processor has a decent amount of power for its budget status. It will do just about anything the standard notebook user will demand of it. It will not however play graphic intensive games or do any intensive 3d rendering. But it will make DVD's, watch movies, play some mild – moderate games, listen to music and get plenty of work done.

Its mobility isn't the best, at 6.2lbs it is a little heavy. The thickness is right on average when compared with other 15.4″ notebooks.

Connectivity:

Integrated Wireless

3 2.0 USB ports (to be used for connecting your printer, iPod, or digital camera)

1 Ethernet port

1 Modem port

1 audio out / 1 mic in

1 VGA out (to be used to connect with a standard monitor)

1 S-Video out (to be used for connecting to a projector)

The connectivity is average. I would like to maybe see a firewire port on this model especially since it does have the integrated graphics card. You should be able to have a little fun with your home movies.

In the end this is a fully capable notebook. It would be fine for a student or in a business atmosphere. It is currently priced at just under $600. I would like to see it drop a little below that, and I bet it will around mid-year, when the industry slows down. So keep an eye on it and wait till it drops into the low 500's.
