For repairs: the FHD screen is a 15.6-inch 30-pin eDP IPS panel; documented OEM panels include AUO B156HAN02.1 and LG LP156WFC-SPD1, and HD versions take a 30-pin 1366x768 panel such as BOE NT156WHM-N44. The internal battery is Acer AP18C8K / AP18C4K (11.25V, 50.29Wh, 3 cells). PCWorld quoted 49Wh for the 51DJ.

Our verdict

Reviewed by Burooj Alam. Rated by us, not by users.

Expert rating6.2 / 10

The Aspire 5 A515-54 pairs a Core i5-8265U with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB drive. Its 15.6 inch 1080p IPS panel and 49Wh battery make it a usable older machine for browsing, documents and streaming.

This is a 2019 design, so the processor is several generations behind current budget chips. The listing gives no weight or port details, so confirm those and the RAM and storage upgrade options before buying.
