The Acer Spin 5 is a hybrid for the masses. It has a large screen but is not excessively heavy, is made of metal but is not intimidatingly expensive. And when not using its hybrid side it feels just like a normal laptop.
There are issues, though. Its screen performs poorly in anything but “easy” indoors environments. The backlight is not bright enough and colour reproduction is muted.
HP’s Envy-series rivals are a little more compelling. They have a little more character to their design and there are better options for gamers and are only slightly more expensive.

At a mid-range price, it's easy not to expect much from the Spin 5, but that'd be wrong. The Spin 5 offers decent performance, design and battery life for the price.
