good laptop but tricky drivers

Good specs for the price (Dell XPS 13 with similar specs is $100 more), decent build quality, aluminum body, laptop is fairly smooth and light, touchpad, Keyboard and such. The screen is good, nothing special but not bad either, the battery life is great, my only complaint is that the fans were very noisy out of the box. However, after setting the fan profile to silent using the fn+f key combination, the device is very quiet and the fans almost never turn on. EDIT: I got random blue screens (referring to Intel driver). I found that you MUST use the Intel graphics driver version on the Acer website. If you're using a different Intel graphics driver (in my case, a newer version was released by a Windows update), blue screens are common. After I rolled back the driver from the Windows update release to the standard Acer driver, the random blue screens were gone.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Sad hardware
