Being flexible and able to work from anywhere in the world is more important than ever before. It is important also that you need to be able to set up and get going within 5 seconds of you sitting at a table. This flexibility is paramount in the world today.
This kind of flexibility sometimes comes with a big price tag. But what if you have MYR 3,000 to spend on that flexibility? You can buy an Acer Aspire 5 or the Acer Aspire 3 and more to get you up to speed with your work from home requirements.
Acer Aspire 5
The Acer Aspire 5, as you have read from the title is MYR 2,599. In the sea of notebooks today, that might sound like a good price. That is because it is a good price for a general-purpose notebook.
For that money though you are not paying for discounted or inferior hardware. You still get a powerful enough 10th Generation Intel Core i5 processors. It does not have a dedicated discreet GPU for its 14-inch Full HD IPS display on board, but the Intel HD graphics is still good enough to run some low-level video editing and rendering with little issues.
Of course, you are not looking at this as a main video or production level rig. In that sense, you only get 4GB of RAM in the device which is still expandable if you need more. Within the sleek and pretty Magic Purple coloured body is a 512GB SSD to make quick work of your documents and file keeping purposes. Of course, if you need more space, there is an extra HDD slot too.
To make sure that you have everything you need to stay productive, the Acer Aspire 5 comes with Microsoft Office Home & Student 2019 pre-installed. But that is not all that you can do if you are already planning to spend MYR 3,000 on a rig. You can get a pretty good mouse with that, probably a nice pair of earphones to keep you stay productive and focused with the Aspire 5.
Acer Aspire 3
Need something bigger? 14-inch is a little puny? 15.6-inch should work fine then. That is the Acer Aspire 3 with 15.6-inch Full HD display.
You get Intel’s 10th Generation Core i5 still, the same as the one you find in the Acer Aspire 5. It also comes with 4GB in RAM (expandable), and a 512GB SSD storage. You get 32GB of Intel Optane Memory in place as well with the Acer Aspire 3.

The Acer Aspire 5 is now available in Acer authorised stores across the nation. It will be also be available in all Acer’s official online store. As mentioned earlier, the Acer Aspire 5 is available in Magic Purple colour option at the price of MYR 2,599. The Acer Aspire 3 comes in Obsidian Black fro the same price.
