Acer Aspire E5-552G Notebook Review
Asynchronous. The combination of a dedicated Radeon R7 M360 with the integrated GPU of the SoC FX-8800P is a Crossfire unit called Radeon R8 M365DX and could non really convince in our review. The other aspects leave a better impression.
For the original German review, run across here.
Co-ordinate to the sometimes slightly confusing naming scheme from Acer, the Aspire E5-552G-F62G is a fellow member of the series Aspire Eastward 15 with a 15-inch screen, which is equipped with the FX-8800P (4x 2.ane-3.four GHz, no Hyperthreading, TDP 12-35 Watts, probably 15 Watts in this case) and eight GB RAM. It is the high-end model from AMD's Carrizo APU lineup. You also go the previously mentioned Crossfire dual graphics Radeon R8 M365DX, where the R7-M360 flake has two GB defended DDR3-RAM. If you are searching for the E5-552G in price comparisons, you will also find a slightly less expensive version T2CD with a slightly slower AMD APU and a 1366 10 768 screen besides our review unit, which uses a elementary FHD TN panel. Despite the average CPU performance, we classify the test model as a low-end multimedia notebook because of the aggressive dual-graphics, but it is too possible to just use the R7 M360.
Our comparison devices with similar screen sizes and cost tags are from the aforementioned category, only there sometimes are actually pretty big differences. We would have liked to include a device with an Intel i3 CPU, which is directly competing with the FX-8800P, only there is unfortunately no suitable device in our database. Nevertheless, we managed to limit the selection to notebooks with conventional difficult drives. If someone is wondering about the rivals with the much faster Core i5 CPUs: Why not, if they take a similar price tag? Here are the competitors:
Acer Aspire V3-575G-5093
Lenovo Z51-seventy (Radeon R7 M360)
HP Pavilion 15-ab052ng
Nosotros use the Lenovo to cheque if the Radeon R8 M365DX manages higher FPS numbers than the R7 M360.

Only like the visually very like Acer Aspire E5-772G we reviewed concluding July, both the lid as well equally the base of operations unit are completely made of plastics. Our review unit is black and has a striking textile structure, which is not unsusceptible to fingerprints. Display frame and top of the base of operations unit on the other hand are dark-grey and just as grippy as the residue of the instance cheers to the fine structure. We like the restrained color scheme and the otherwise uncomplicated and unspectacular pattern, but information technology might exist more appealing for male customers.
Considering of the material, the hat is non very sturdy and tin can – contrary to the 17-inch model E5-772G – not exist opened with just one hand. Pressure on the back volition likewise result in some picture distortions. Sudden movements will only result in some billowy. Considering the plastic, the torsion-resistance of the base of operations is decent and there is no major creaking, despite the optical drive. The forepart border of the base might be a bit sharp, but the overall build quality of the case is good.

Acer Aspire E5-552G
You only become the usual essentials in terms of ports. The sometime VGA port allows the apply of former projectors. One of the three USB ports, which are distributed across both sides, notwithstanding just supports the slow standard 2.0. Transfer rates of up to 100 MB/south are common in combination with an external USB 3.0 bulldoze, but we simply managed upwards to 73 MB/s, and the transfer rates were sometimes even much lower.
Nosotros utilise our reference SD card Toshiba Exceria Pro SDXC 64 GB UHS-2 to evaluate the performance of the card reader. The maximum transfer rate is up to 10.2 MB/south when we copy large files, while common jpeg. pictures (~5 MB each) are transferred at effectually 11.2 MB/south. It could hardly be any slower.
Except for power and Kensington Lock, Acer placed all ports at the front end of the sides, which can be an upshot when you adhere cables or USB drives. There is sufficient space between the ports in general, simply at that place could exist problems with very wide USB thumb drives.
Advice
The Aspire E5-552G supports wired Gbit Ethernet, but tin obviously use wireless network connections as well. The latter are handled by an air conditioning Wi-Fi module with support for the v GHz band every bit well as Bluetooth 4.0 from Qualcomm Atheros, simply the signal quality was not very good with the Wi-Fi antenna. There were no problems in the apartment of the reviewer fifty-fifty through walls, just the quality in the 2.4 GHz band (download of a Steam game) dropped quicker than usual when we increased the altitude to the router via staircase and added more structural elements. There were likewise connection dropouts pretty quickly.
Accessories
Besides the ability adapter and the cablevision, the box includes the usual quick-start guides and warranty information as well every bit brochures for Acer's cloud service.
Maintenance
Access to the components including the bombardment requires a screw driver. Information technology seems you have to elevator the top of the base unit after the loosening of several screws at the bottom.
Warranty
Acer grants a 24-month warranty.
Touchpad
The commencement matter you notice at the Clickpad without defended buttons is the big size, which is very comfortable, especially since it is also responsive in the peripheral areas. The surface is smooth and acquired small stutters with slightly moist fingers, which was also the example for the older 17-inch model. Responsive and accurateness were inconspicuous, and fast movements as well every bit Drag & Drop via double tap worked very well.
The mouse buttons with a short travel are over again convincing. The resistance is near perfect in our opinion, and the house pressure level point, which is just slightly above the stroke, provides a perfect feedback in combination with the clearly audible clicking noise. Unfortunate: At that place is no preloaded driver for the Clickpad, so you lot have to live with the Windows ten settings.
Keyboard
At least the keyboard design of the Acer Aspire E5-552G is identical to the larger and older E5-772G. Acer uses a chiclet-mode keyboard where the normal letter keys have a slightly conical curvature, while all other keys are flat. Except for the smaller numeric keypad, which is not perfect for the treatment, and the position of the integrated ability push button at the upper right, the layout does not offer any surprises. The lettering of the slightly roughened keys is perfectly visible, but one compromise of the low cost tag is the missing background illumination.
Every potential buyer will be happy about the sufficiently long travel and the well-defined pressure signal; at least the writer of this review likes the slightly absorbed and therefore rather firm stroke. The larger keys clatter audibly, and then the Aspire is not the perfect device for noise-sensitive environments. The well-integrated keyboard tin be slightly dent in the middle, but just if you lot try to. Nosotros would not telephone call the input devices high-end, just there should non be whatever restrictions for role tasks.
The matte 15.6-inch brandish of the Acer Aspire E5-552G-F62G is not actually vivid, just the rivals in this price segment are non much brighter than the measured boilerplate result of 200 cd/thousand², either. Only the Acer Aspire V3 manages an reward of 25 % within this comparing. Clearly below-average is the brightness distribution of just 76 %, but you cannot run into it subjectively. Quite the opposite: That a completely black picture does not appear even is mainly caused by the express viewing bending stability of the TN panel, merely in that location were no signs of clouding or backlight bleeding.
Our Aspire is as well targeting gamers, so the Full-Hard disk resolution is pretty much ideal. The pixel density of 141 PPI should be sufficient from a normal viewing distance of around half a meter. There is no criticism for the sharpness. The previously mentioned version T2CD on the other hand only has 1366 x 768 pixels.

You usually accept to waive really good contrast ratios similar one,000:1 when you get an cheap notebook, and neither the review unit of measurement nor the comparison devices are exceptions. You nevertheless get a decent 588:1, which is a result of the conveniently low black value of 0.34 cd/g² and the subjective impression is decent as well. Worse are the Acer Aspire V3 and the Lenovo Z51-lxx, while the HP Pavilion with a black value of 0.66 cd/m² cannot display rich blacks, which results in a really poor contrast of 306:1.
TN screens are not known for high colour accuracy, and our measurements show loftier DeltaE deviations between 9-13 for all comparison devices. Platonic values would be smaller iii, but not many TN panels manage that. Our review unit of measurement also suffered from a massive bluish cast by default, which can probably exist improved past our linked color profile (see box). If you are interested in serious picture editing, you will prefer loftier colour space coverages and therefore usually IPS displays, which can often cover the small sRGB reference (almost) completely. No rule without exceptions: The TN console of the Acer Aspire V3 covers 74 % of the much wider AdobeRGB gamut (review model: 36 %) and sRGB completely.

The matte panel surface is an advantage outdoors, simply not so much the low luminance. We checked the visibility on a cloudy day. We tried to provoke reflections in these admittedly expert weather, only the test model fares pretty well. There are really no limitations on the right movie, where the author had the entry of the apartment behind him.
Display Response Times
ℹ
Display response times show how fast the screen is able to modify from one color to the adjacent. Dull response times tin lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to announced blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (37.1 ms). | ||
Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
ℹ
To dim the screen, some notebooks volition simply bike the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human being eye. If said frequency is too depression, users with sensitive optics may experience strain or headaches or even find the flickering altogether.
| Screen flickering / PWM not detected | ||
| In comparison: 52 % of all tested devices practise not utilise PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 22039 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured. | ||
Less expensive TN panels in particular often have bug with limited viewing angles, and this problem in unfortunately pretty severe for our review unit E5-552G. The display fifty-fifty has issues with a uniform picture impression when you lot are sitting right in front end of it, because you manifestly cannot look at every spot on the console from the aforementioned angle. Your movement in front of the screen is therefore limited. Horizontal shifts practice at to the lowest degree not affect the colors that much, but y'all can chop-chop notice effulgence and contrast drops. Much worse are vertical changes and y'all can immediately see typical TN issues like a milky picture impression or inverted colors, respectively.
Within the class of multimedia notebooks, our Acer Aspire E5-552G-F62G falls behind the rivals in terms of performance, which is mainly caused by the slow SoC equally well as the conventional difficult drive. You get at least 4 physical cores besides as eight GB dual-channel memory, which cannot only be an advantage for multitasking only also gaming. Despite the insufficiently low per-MHz performance of the SoC and the poor Turbo utilization (meet below), information technology is fast plenty for office and Net tasks and even more complex applications.
The 28 nm SoC AMD FX-8800P (4x ii.1-3.four GHz, no Hyperthreading, TDP 15 (?) W, all I/O ports integrated) is the current height model from AMD's Carrizo APU series and very similar to the business concern version Pro A12-8800B. It competes with Intel CPU's similar the Core i3-5010U (2x 2.i GHz, no Turbo Heave, Hyperthreading, TDP 15 West) in terms of performance. However, the performance can vary heavily depending on the notebook due to the configurable TDP betwixt 15-35 Watts, although the manufacturers usually use fifteen Watts similar to the ULV processors from Intel. The integrated GPU is usually a Radeon R6 GPU (Carrizo), which is quite powerful on paper. It creates a Crossfire solution called Radeon R8 M365DX in combination with the dedicated Radeon R7 M360.
While existent quad-cores from Intel commonly manage 3.5-3.5 times college scores in the Cinebench Multi tests compared to the Single tests, the factor is just 2.7-2.9 for the FX-8800P in the review unit. This is a low effect, which is too frequently managed past Intel dual-cores with Hyperthreading. Information technology is therefore not really surprising that the AMD SoC is – with i exception – beaten by every Core-i CPU in a multimedia notebook we reviewed over the last ten months. You can encounter in the table below that the FX-8800P has a small advantage over the slightly slower AMD A10-8700P in the HP Pavilion, merely does non stand a chance against the i5 competitors in the other 2 notebooks, which are non much more expensive.
We use a Cinebench loop (Multi) to check the behavior of the cores nether high, but still realistic sustained load. The SoC tin maintain two.v GHz at starting time, but the clocks will commencement to fluctuate betwixt ii.3-ii.five GHz later a couple of minutes. Information technology is non even shut to the theoretical (single-cadre) maximum of 3.4 GHz, but there is no throttling since it does not driblet below the nominal clock of 2.1 GHz. The maximum Turbo is sometimes available while idling or with light workloads. The Cinebench R15 Multi score dropped from 207 to 190 points in the 3rd run. The performance does non change on battery ability.

We already mentioned that Acer does not win any prizes with the organisation performance of the E5-552G. Looking at the total score of PCMark 7, which is heavily affected by the storage performance, the test model is i of the slowest multimedia notebooks from the final 10 months, while the HP Pavilion benefits from its hybrid difficult drive. Even though PCMark 8 is more balanced, the E5 is once again at the bottom of the ranking. The situation would be much better with whatever SSD. None of the comparison devices is equipped with a real SSD, so the much higher CPU functioning of the 2 devices with an i5 scrap does actually not result in such a big advantage.
The lack of an SSD is mainly noticeable when you launch applications for the offset fourth dimension and you lot will take to live with regular delays. The situation was better when the application was already launched before and was still (partly) in the memory. Loading times during gaming in particular were often very long and the test model too took a while before it was responsive over again when we exited the games.

According to the CrystalDiskMark 3.0 results, the v,400 rpm drive with a capacity of 1 TB manages decent, simply not especially proficient sequential transfer rates when you read large files. It is also boilerplate within the difficult drives from the last x months (without hybrid and SSD) in terms of pocket-size files (4K Read), which are typical for application and OS launches. One noticeable aspect is that the hybrid hard bulldoze in the Pavilion does non manage an reward. Based on our experiences, this would have changed after a couple of criterion runs.

The Crossfire solution AMD Radeon R8 M365DX consists of a defended R7 M360 with 2 GB dedicated DDR3 memory every bit well as the integrated R6 Carrizo GPU. Crossfire tin result in micro stutters, when both GPUs need different amounts of time for the alternating adding of frames. Despite sufficient frame rates, this volition actually cause additional stutters when you play games. Information technology is sometimes even better to but employ the R7 M360, and the combination will sometimes at least result in a measurable reward. Our articles and benchmarks for the R7 M360 and R6 Carrizo are linked to a higher place.
We usually test graphics card with the preloaded drivers, simply this time we had bug with games that would not first at all or massive graphics errors. The onetime driver from 07/15/2015 (!) did non even know the resolution 1366 x 768 pixels, so nosotros sometimes had to switch to 1280 x 720 and nosotros apparently noted it. Loading times were sometimes also absurdly long; the loading of a map in Anno 2205 could take virtually five minutes, which dropped to near 30 seconds with a current commuter. Some other event was a message that the graphics commuter did not react anymore and had to be restarted, and this was unfortunately nevertheless a small issue afterward the commuter update.
3DMark xi shows that the performance of the R8 M365DX in the review unit is betwixt the Nvidia GeForce 940M and GTX 950M, while it is at least 30 % behind the GTX 960M. However, some GTX 950M chips managed more twice as many points in the 3DMark Deject Gate benchmark.

The gaming functioning is non good. Our tabular array below conspicuously shows that you can inappreciably use more than than minimum settings at 1024x768 or 1280 x 720. If medium settings are managed at decent frame rates, you volition even so exist facing annoying Crossfire stutters in some titles, which is non enjoyable.
Fifty-fifty though the competition is very restrained, the Aspire E5-552G is among the quietest nether load and did not really bother the writer. The lower outcome under maximum load compared to the average value tin exist explained with the throttling. Despite the running fan and placidity HDD noises, y'all cannot hear the notebook at a normal altitude (0.5 meters).

The surface temperatures are never worryingly loftier at any point of the chassis fifty-fifty nether sustained maximum load. Acer'south Aspire V3-575G suffers from its thin structure under very high loads and can achieve up to threescore °C, while the Lenovo Z51-70 reaches upward to 47 °C at the superlative.
Our stress test with the tools Prime95 and FurMark immediately resulted in heavy throttling for the Acer Aspire E5-552G (screenshot) and the CPU clocks were steady at i.4 GHz. This is manifestly not caused past high temperatures. FurMark also stressed the integrated GPU, then the TDP limit played a office.

We focus on the music playback with the clean default preset (pictures beneath). There is admittedly no bass, but the result is otherwise really decent and in that location are no abrasive distortions, volume fluctuations or a shrill playback. The tiny speakers at the bottom require some compression from the sound arrangement, so it sounds a bit squeezed and unnatural. There are some signs of dynamic and spatial effect. The maximum book is sufficient for medium-sized rooms and voices in movies were piece of cake to understand.
The review unit does unfortunately pull 0.4 Watts from the socket when information technology is turned off, but stays below the boilerplate of the multimedia notebooks (15.6 inch) we reviewed within the last x months while idling. Notwithstanding, they are also equipped with much faster components and sometimes frugal SSDs. The depression load consumption of our E5 does non really tell that much, because the significantly higher performance of some GPUs and CPUs does require more than ability.
The 65-Watt PSU is sufficient for the maximum consumption of 46 Watts and tin still charge the battery when y'all play games. The HP Pavilion consumes virtually within the comparison devices, while the Lenovo Z51-70 with i5 and R7 M360 is the nigh frugal in general. That the maximum consumption is lower compared to the medium scenario is one time again a consequence of the throttling.
Similar to the power consumption, nosotros desire to avert comparison apples and oranges when we look at the battery runtimes, so we one time again use similarly sized comparison devices with roughly the same battery capacities.
400 minutes in the idle test at the everyman effulgence are good, only more than of import is the realistic Wi-Fi test (how nosotros test), where the review unit only manages 168 minutes and conspicuously falls backside the Acer Aspire V3 and the Lenovo Z51-70 in particular. This supports the phenomenon where the fan would periodically spin upwards during the Wi-Fi exam without apparent reason. The load test for the minimum runtime crashed repeatedly, so we cannot requite you the runtime for this scenario.
Bombardment Runtime
| Idle (without WLAN, min brightness) | 6h 40min | |
| WiFi Websurfing | 2h 48min |
Pros
+ comparatively lightweight
+ robust and well-built chassis
+ skillful input devices
+ no PWM
+ decent HDD
+ decent sound system
+ very quiet and cool
Cons
- very slow card reader
- port layout non platonic
- Wi-Fi signal a chip too weak
- bad maintainability, battery not attainable from the outside
- overall poor TN panel
- small viewing angles
- sometime and buggy GPU driver preloaded
- Crossfire stutters
- weak multi-core performance, probably due to 15 Due west TDP
- handling often sluggish
- low Wi-Fi battery runtime
You tin can already see it in the pro/con list: Except for the decent chassis and the skilful input devices, the Acer Aspire E5-552G-F62G was not convincing in many respects. One possible usage scenario would be as a stationary office device.
Acer's new multimedia notebooks suffers from problems with the Crossfire configuration and the display in particular, which is not suited for multimedia purposes.
It would be pointless to repeat all the negative aspects at this betoken. It is easy to find a better notebook in this toll range, like the comparison devices with an i5 processor. If you adopt a perfectly working multimedia platform, you should select a combination of Intel CPU and Nvidia GPU to be on the safe side right now, and it is not necessarily (much) more expensive.

I grew upwards with modern consumer electronics and my first computer was a Commodore C64, which encouraged my involvement in building my own systems. I started working as a review editor for Notebookcheck during my dual studies at Siemens. Currently, I am mainly responsible for dealing with business organization laptops and mobile workstations. It's a great experience to exist able to review the latest devices and technologies and then compare them with each other.
