Product details

Imagine sitting down at your computer. It recognizes you as an authorized user, conveniently without a complicated password. Then you embark on a test flight – in the middle of it, you wonder what the altitude record of the SR-71 is. Your digital assistant knows the answer. Speaking of records, of course, your notebook starts (almost) as fast as "The Flash" and is particularly slim. Sounds like a comic hero? Not at all. All you need is a modern notebook or convertible with Windows 10: Windows Hello makes logging in easier in collaboration with an IR camera, fingerprint sensor, or PIN code.

The digital assistant Cortana is your personal Jarvis. Thanks to modern storage like eMMC, SSD, or Intel Optane, your Windows modern device is sleek and fast. On devices with Windows Ink, you can even write on the display with a pen. And if villains and evildoers attack you throughout the day, you won't be bothered, as a whole team of heroes defends against the attacks in the background. After all, any potential security vulnerabilities in Windows 10 are addressed over many years – unlike the old Windows 7, which has support limited to ten years.

A large 17-inch display, lots of SSD storage, high working speed and many connections: The Aspire 5 A517 is the almost perfect replacement for a desktop PC. Why only almost? The display of the notebook is weak, it is neither particularly bright nor rich in contrast and true to colour.
