I like this offer I just wonder why amazon states "with backlit keyboard" when all answers in the Q&A section say the opposite "No backlit keyboard"? I than wonder what other details are incorrect, RAM, CPU, aluminium body,etc.

I think the q&a references the range of devices in this particular Acer aspire line (edited)

RAM upgradable or soldiered?

Says maximum is 32GB, doesn't say how it's configured

No touch screen I take it? Solid spec if not overkill for most people with that 16GB processor on a U series processor.

Though quad HD resolution may make things too small for some. Imo, 1080p is best. Would rather manufactures fave screens more colour accurate with more brightness than slam on higher resolutions tbh.

Windows 11 is kind of a downside to this laptop being unrefined compared to windows 10.

The recently posted Lenovo laptops might be a better buy.

Why is Windows 11 a downside??

The only problem with intel SoC's is that game compatibility sucks. C&C remastered just does not work on them.
