"Acer's new is a humble laptop. It isn't flashy or over-the-top, it doesn't house high-end hardware or an OLED screen. Instead, it focuses on being a reliable work device with a midrange price tag. Considering how expensive things are nowadays, we need more laptops like this now more than ever before -- especially if you're a college student. For students, the Aspire 16 is a reliable device with enough battery power to get through the day. Instead of bells and whistles, it delivers solid performance and a slim form factor that's easy to commute with."
"Sleek design The Acer Aspire 16 AI opts for a practical design, measuring 14 x 9.85 x 0.63 inches and weighing 3.42 pounds, it's sleek, sliding easily into most backpacks. Build quality is solid, and its weight is evenly distributed, passing the "one-finger test" without a hint of wobble. I also appreciate the spacious touchpad, which measures 5.9 x 3.5 inches and provides plenty of room for comfortable navigating."
"Cesar Cadenas/ZDNET Typing on the Aspire 16 felt mostly satisfying. The main set of keys is evenly spaced out and offers a decent amount of travel distance, making it easy to type quickly. That said, the keys have a slightly mushy feel; it's not the most crispy keyboard. Plus, the up and down arrow keys, as well as the number pad, are undersized. They're perfectly functional, although you may accidentally bump keys."
