Yes this is the Acer Aspire 5. This is the exact model.
I don't think it is - the one for sale is an i7 with a 1080p monitor.
The one in the link is an i5 with a 768p monitor.
The Acer link I have provided is the correct model, as stated on the Good Guys website the part number is NX.HNDSA.003.
You clicked on wrong link!
this is the Acer Aspire 5
Thanks, I will change the title to fix up any confusion.
Does anyone know much about this one.
Can more ram be added or a bigger drive ?
hey mate, i just purchased this item today, it comes with a HDD caddy to install a HDD/SSD, it is easy to upgrade the NVme SSD. the ram you have to be careful, it comes with 8gb, 4gb is soldiered to the MBO and 4gb is a stick (DDR4 2666mhz)
Thanks for that.
So the 4gb stick can be replaced with a larger stick such as 8gb or higher ?
yeah i think the "max" is 32gb but im pretty sure you will be safe with an 8gb stick
Thanks for elaborating. Mum is off to purchase one today and I was trying to find out how easy upgrades would be last night, questions answered now!
Fyi, i just stumbled upon the i5 1TB HDD for $799:

1tb mechanical ?
Not sure what you mean, but HDD is not SSD.
10th gen system with a HDD? It'll cripple performance.
This also lists only a HD (15.6" LCD HD), not FHD screen in the specs.
Same SKU being sold by other also listing a low-res HD screen, i5, and a mechanical 1TB drive.

Personally I wouldn't buy an Acer but paying $100 more, for the system with an i7 CPU, SSD, and a FHD screen is worthwhile.
Just wondering if this model is available in HN ?
Thanks
There isn't any i7 model available at HN. Correct me if I'm wrong, I believe the i7 model has a much faster clock speed. The benchmark says that the i7 model has an average +30% higher clock speed.
Here is the benchmark:
https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-1035G1-v…
Other than the clock speed, I don't see much of a difference.
The i7 in this has a faster CP, however the GPU in the Ryzen is far quicker than the pitiful Intel HD620, which hasn't changed for the past few generations.
https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Core-i7-10510U-Laptop-Pr…
"The integrated graphics card however is still the same as in the previous generations. It should be still called Intel HD Graphics 620 and clock from 300 - 1150 MHz in the i7. Furthermore, the SoC integrates a VP9 and H.265 de- and encoder and an integrated dual channel DDR4-2666 / LPDDR4x 2933 / LPDDR3-2133 memory controller."

I couldn't find this on the Acer website. Do you have a link? Is this the Acer Aspire 5 or is it an older model?
