So a friend bought an Acer Aspire E-15, E5-574g. Here are the specs:
So the laptop takes well over a 1.5 minutes to boot, along with having few hiccups here and there while browsing the web or using Windows Explorer. Games work as expected of a laptop.
I have an older 3rd Gen i3 (3217u) Dell laptop with 4 GB RAM also running Windows 10 but this one boots way faster (like 25 seconds).
Could the Acer laptop be faulty? Is it just slow because of being cheap considering the other specs (extra RAM, HDD, GPU)? Would removing a bunch of Acer bloatware help? Reinstalling Windows?
I personally thought that adding an SSD as a boot drive is our best option. Thoughts? Would it void our warranty?
