Acer is one of the most popular names in the Indian laptop market. Year after year they have launched some sturdy, good looking and high-performing laptops in the sooq. The latest to come off the supply chain of the maker is Acer Aspire 7 2021 model, which they handed over to us for an evaluation. We spent some days and nights with the machine working and watching our favourite Netflix and Disney+ Hotstar shows on it. This is our review of the Acer Aspire 7 (2021).

Acer Aspire 7 review: Design and Display
Out of the box, you do not get an oomph factor from the Acer Aspire 7, as it has basic looks with a pinch modern outlook. It comes across as this laptop is built for your productivity needs but has lots more to offer. Dressed in charcoal grey you will find the Acer logo on the top of the lid with Aspire written on the silver, back spine.
Open it and you are greeted by a large full QWERTY with NUM pad keyboard and medium-sized trackpad. Which, by the way, is multi-touch/gesture ready. The large 15.6-inch (FHD IPS) display can be swivelled to 180 degrees and does not feel flimsy. The screen to body ratio is about 82% and you do get an HD webcam a well as few MICS over it in the Acer Aspire 7. The keyboard is backlit and comes with function keys that also double up as multimedia buttons. The typing experience on the keyboard of this Acer laptop is good, however, we would have wanted a larger trackpad.
There are plenty of ports on the Acer Aspire 7. The company has put in the power USB and audio (3.5mm) on the right side, while the left side has two more USBs, one USB Type-C, HDMI and the ethernet ports. Two downward-firing speakers can also be found under the laptop (on the left and right side). Overall, the laptop looks premium, and it does say it means business.
Acer Aspire 7: Performance
Let’s first talk about the tech specs of the Acer Aspire 7 (2021). The model that we have has Intel Core i5 10th Gen CPU with 6 cores (10300H). The max clock speed here is 2.5Ghz. With that the users get 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX1650 graphics card. Bluetooth 4.1 and Wi-Fi 6 are also part of the package.
Windows 10 Home edition is what users get, which was a bit strange as we were expecting the Pro edition on this laptop. There is a little bit of bloatware that comes along with the laptop, but all the extra software can be uninstalled. Users also get 100GB of free storage with Acer Aspire 7, which they can use for 1 year. This machine also comes with 30 days trial of Norton security.
We played a lot of movies and Netflix shows on the laptop and we quite liked the experience. The screen is bright and viewing angles are good. With it, the sound is not too bad. However, a little bit louder would have been perfect. The gaming experience on the Acer Aspire 7 is good too. Games like CS: GO and Dota 2 can be played at 100FPS, but PUBG or more graphics hungry games have to be figured down to 30-60FPS at medium settings. But the experience with these games at mid settings is not bad either.
The battery life of the Acer Aspire 7 is one of its brightest points. The 3-cell battery lasted over 7.5 hours for us, when not gaming. A 135W charger comes in the box that quickly charges it back. Our experience in Zoom calls was good too. The MICS work well, and the screen did a good job. Again, a slightly louder speaker output would have been perfect. The writing/typing experience on Google docs or MS Word was nice. The tactile feel of the keys is excellent and the lightest of taps registers the alphabet on screen.
Verdict
The overall weight of the Acer Aspire 7 laptop is 2.15 Kg, which is not bad. We were able to lug it around easily and it made p for a good work and play companion. At Rs 57,990, Acer has managed to bring out a very good workhorse. If you are on the lookout for a work machine and want a good multimedia experience with it, then this machine will suit you well.
Acer Aspire 7: Pros
Good performances
Backlit keyboard
Excellent battery life

Restarting an Android smartphone is pretty simple.
Press and hold the power key then tap the reboot option within the power menu.But because the smartphone isn’t always in the OS mode, we must force reboot the phone without the power menu.

So you just need to keep holding the power button for some time.

Keep pressing them till your phone reboots and you will see the Redmi logo on the smartphone and the animation begins.

Looking at the quality of the offerings that Netflix has to offer in 2021, it quickly becomes clear that their horror library is a real rotating collection of originals and some adaptations. Challenging services, and especially art-specific ones like Shudder, continue to expand their horror film collections. Making it harder and harder for Netflix to expand its horror library monthly. Nonetheless, Netflix is trying its best to bring new and some good old ones for its customers every month.Here is our list of top 10 horror movies on Netflix that you should watch or rewatch first. We advise you to use this list as a helping guide.
Bloody Red Sky(2021)
This creepy yet innovative German-language chiller has become a hit in recent times. When a group of terrorists hijack a flight, they’re surprised to find out that a woman on board will go to any lengths to protect her son, even showing her darker side of a vampire. It is a scary movie that even the faint-hearted must-watch can watch and enjoy. The action scenes take place in the dark (mostly), hence the plot becomes interesting.This movie is getting a good response from the viewers and is one of the best out there.
#Alive(2020)
Released at the height of the COVID 19 pandemic, this Korean zombie movie became a surprise hit on Netflix. But the truth is that it could also have worked without the “timidity” of the story of a man trapped in his apartment during the apocalypse. Smart and fast-paced, this is a classic modern zombie film that builds tension with clever action sequences. The Plot? The rapid spread of an unknown infection has left the entire city in unbearable chaos, but one person survives in isolation. It’s his story.
1922(2017)
It is an adaptation from Stephen King’s novel with almost the same name, but interestingly it is not a true story, as believed by many. The movie is full of scary images, and gradually the farmer begins to succumb to his guilt. 1922 witnesses traditional jump scares by not giving you musical build-ups or stings to announce the scary thing.Read Also:Airtel and Shemaroo launch ‘The Horror TV’: Here are all the details
Gerald’s Game(2017)
A married couple’s relationship is failing and they plan to spice it up by getting kinky at a remote country house. After the husband dies unexpectedly, the wife is left handcuffed to their bed frame and must fight to survive and break free till it’s too late. This is also based on a novel by Stephen King. It is a dark movie as the plot twists in the midway, it is scary without any ghostly appearances. It also received good feedback from the audience and is a must-watch.
Sweetheart(2019)
Another flick on the best 10 horror movies on Netflix is Sweetheart. It’s clear this is a monster movie made by a monster lover and you can feel the DNA of the greats – from aliens to hunters. The way Dillard (director) stages his scenes to make the most of his modest means. It helps that a Fiji island is an inherently grand setting, but Dillard takes care to keep the film textured by embracing the various “sets” on the island, providing level transitions and a wash of colour. A hammock, a bright redraft, and a hollowed-out tree trunk, all provide different platforms for Jane’s (the lead actor) showdown with the monster, and Dillard each to spice up the film with new forms of tension-building, using the new location.
Creep(2014)
Creep takes many little pieces, brushes them, and puts them together into a wonderful and unique masterpiece. It is extremely disturbing without resorting to gore, which was a breath of fresh air. Be aware that jump scares are serious but cheesy, but it gives a positive impact. It is 80 mins packed content, which will not allow you to close it midway. Many critics have liked the film so much that they have watched it many times and are not still getting over it.
The Conjuring Series(2013,2016,2021)
The whole Conjuring series has been thrilling and scary for the audience. It is the most commonly watched horror movie series in the world of current times. It is the most prescribed movie suggestion for any horror lover. The 2021 edition also adds up another layer of haunting and ghosting in the stock, as The Warrens (lead family in the movie) investigate the murder of demonic appearance.Read Also: Netflix now lets Android users share movies and TV shows via Instagram Stories
Apostle (2018)
The next movie on best 10 horror movies on Netflix list is this one. This movie is a sure-fire gift for those who love true horror. Like The VVitch, this is a beautifully acted and written period piece set from the early 1900s. The pacing is perfect, the tone is driving and rhythmic, there was no point during this film where anyone got bored. The characters were taken out and it was easy to empathise with. Overall, it is fantastic to watch. Many claims that such a good movie didn’t get a theatrical release.Anyone who likes the idea of paganism, cult, religion without disorienting Christians (which The Conjuring does, even though I’m a fan of those movies), or period pieces will love this movie. Do yourself a favour and give it a chance.
The Babysitter(2017)
This film must be treated as a horror-comedy and not just horror. It has a tight plot, yet you might not get much adrenaline rush from this movie. But it is a must-watch movie for every horror-loving viewer. It is visible that the babysitter is not interested in keeping the baby (Chloe) quiet. You might get giggles at times, but it is a good watch over others.
The Perfection(2018)
This is a movie about two music students Charlotte and Elizabeth. Elizabeth is a star from her former school and helps Charlotte from a troubled musical prodigy. But the encounter sends both of them on a sinister path with shocking and unbelievable consequences. This movie is again not a very scary flick but still manages to put chills down the spine.
So this is our list of the best 10 horror movies on Netflix. If you have any recommendations, which we might have missed let us know in the comments section below.
