  • I tried to do this research years ago and my impression was that acer was near bottom of the barrel in reliability these days unfortunately.

    That said, it also seems in general that laptop quality and reliability are a total crap shoot, even within the same company.

    So your best bet imo is to just find a model that has the specs you like and research the hell out of it before buying.
















  • I have a ton of assorted ones from over the years. Here’s a select few:

    • Play the Wii Shop Theme when I open the Play Store
    • Turn on Samsung’s built in Protect Battery feature at night, and automatically turn it off when my alarm goes off in the morning
    • Open Spotify automatically when I connect to my car’s Bluetooth
    • Turn on Silent mode when I get close to work and disconnect from my car, and turn it back off when I reconnect to my car’s Bluetooth
    • Set my AoD to Tap to Show when I have no notifications, but change it to Always On when I have notifications from apps I mark important
    • Track my earbuds’ battery life via a persistent notification when they’re connected to my phone
    • React to double tapping volume up when not playing media to toggle the flashlight, and ditto with the volume down to open the camera
    • Clear persistent system notifications that I don’t want or care about that otherwise normally won’t let you clear them or turn them off (take that Google)
