Not going to go into the specs on this, but I'm going to say that I REALLY like this computer!Pros:1.  Full size keyboard with a number pad (I need this since I do a lot of work with Excel).2.  Backlit keyboard (I sometimes work in poorly lit areas and this works wonders).3.  Bluetooth (great for routing sound through my soundbar should I decide to do that in the future).4.  Not a touchscreen!  While some prefer them, I am going from a touchscreen laptop to a non-touchscreen laptop.  (I found it annoying that stray hairs or other things would cling to the screen and then I couldn't clean the screen off without opening 15 different things on my old one.  So, I was happy to find a laptop that didn't have that feature, which I do not miss at all.)5.  Long battery life (6+ hours--this is going to be great for car trips when the travel restrictions end).6.  Processor and memory are able to make instantaneous calculations on a 25 MB Excel sheet (which is unusually large).7.  Very lightweight (this is going to be fun when I go through airports again as I'm the Dad carrying two car seats along with the backpack of tech).8.  Not made in China!  If you're trying to boycott Chinese goods like I am because of Xi Jinping's lackluster response to COVID-19, rest assured that Acer is based out of Taiwan.Cons:1.  Windows 10 S-mode restricts you from third party programs like Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.  If you want them, you have to permanently take your computer out of S-mode.2.  The processor fan is a bit louder than most others.  This sort of thing doesn't bother me, but it does bother my wife, who also has an Acer Aspire 5.3.  The processor fan also has a tendency to run while the laptop is closed.  I'm not sure why it needs to run while it's supposed to be idle, but oh well.  This is another thing that doesn't bother me, but it seems a bit odd.4.  The battery is not a removable module like other laptops' batteries.  If this is going to be a very long term solution like my last laptop (bought in 2013), I know I'm going to need to find a way to put in a new battery safely and without damaging the unit.5.  The speakers are a bit weak.  I discovered this one day when I lost my phone and needed to use it for distance learning school videos for my third grader.  I had it on full blast in a quiet room and it was difficult to understand at times.  (It was inspiration enough for me to get a nearby friend to call my phone so I could find it was kicked underneath the couch.)  If good quality speakers are important to you, this unit isn't for you.  For me, it doesn't matter because I can live without the Windows 10 sound effects and I don't use it for entertainment.
