Acer Aspire VX 15 Review

There are two most rapidly growing segments in the technical industry line which are gaming and VR, on which Acer is trying to focus. The company has recently launched its brand new Acer gaming laptops and monitors, while on VR it is planning to bring later this year.

The design of Acer Aspire VX 15 is eye catching, which can be liked by everyone of us. The one thing that stands out in this laptop is that it looks like a sports car. The red accent on the black body of laptop adds to its visual appearance. Acer Aspire VX 15 is entirely made of plastic; there are two slightly tilted reflective red colored strips on the both side of the logo. It provides the hinge of about 150 degrees.

Acer Aspire VX 15 comes with the screen size of 15.6-inch IPS panel with a full-HD resolution which produces sharp text and images. While the brightness level is quite low and the display does not feel vibrant because the colors are bit dull. Even indoor we have to maximize the brightness.

The keyboard is also styled with LED lights. The lights glow from the keys which make it easy to type in lights off. The keys are of curved design so that your fingers can feel comfortable while typing. The other main things about the keys are that they do not make noise while typing. There is a generous palm rest area and a larger track pad.
