The Aspire 5 15 (Aspire 5 A515 Series) 256GB / 8GB is Acer's 2019 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 19.7 x 365 x 243 ( = 0.78 x 14.37 x 9.57 in) display, the Intel Core i7-1355U 10c/12t, 2 x 5.0 GHz Intel Golden Cove P-Core, 8 x 3.7 GHz Intel Gracemont E-Core, 55 W PL2 / Short Burst, 28 W PL1 / Sustained, Raptor Lake-U chipset. At AED 849 in the UAE and ₹19,990 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Aspire 5 15 packs an Intel Core i7-1355U with 10 cores and an RTX 2050 with 4GB GDDR6, delivering strong multitasking and light gaming performance unmatched at this price. With 16GB DDR4-3200 in dual channel, it handles creative workflows smoothly. The 48Wh battery lasts about 6–7 hours under mixed use, adequate for mobile productivity. It excels for students and freelancers needing Windows 11 compatibility and discrete GPU power for photo editing or light 3D rendering. The single 256GB NVMe SSD is a severe bottleneck—slow boot times and app loads hurt daily use. Ports are generous, including Thunderbolt 4 and USB-C PD, but the 1.79kg weight and thin plastic chassis feel cheap. In UAE at AED 849, it’s good value because the GPU and CPU combo outperforms rivals costing twice as much. In India at ₹19990, it’s overpriced—same specs are available with 512GB SSD for under ₹22000, making this storage-limited version hard to justify.
