Hi all,
I'm looking at a laptop on Very, it the Aspire 5 Intel Core i3, 8Gb RAM, 1Tb Hard Drive, 17.3 inch Laptop - Black.
Item Number: MQUG61E
I noticed a review stating it was NOT full HD as stated but infact 1600x900. Reviewed only 1 month ago.
I spoke to an advisor via chat about it, who basically just read the description and said yes it says it's Full HD. Then copied and pasted the tech specs to me (Which of course I'd already read.) They assure me it was correct.
I then copied the MPN of the item and put it into Google, all of the other website I found it on state 1600 x 900.
I then chat to another web assistant on Very. They said again that it is correct (after reciting back to me the description again). Assured me the description will be right and I will be very happy with it.
Is there anybody techie here that would just be able to check this for me, it's for a birthday present and I will be furious if after both confirming it's right and I order it for it to turn up and be wrong! (I'll be using a BNPL 100 off code they currently offer as well so don't want any hassle sorting that if it's wrong).
Thanks in Advance.

I would go by what the reviewer said rather than a Very adviser.
I've just looked at the review and Jack was not a happy bunny!
As an aside, I recently purchased a refurbished Acer laptop from the Argos eBay shop. Aside from a massive saving on the new price I couldn't tell that it had ever been used. It has been excellent. I ordered it one afternoon and it arrived the following morning.0 -
Oops sorry...
Was looking at a different laptop.
NX.GSUEK.017 is shown as HD+
In addition I would avoid any laptop that did not have a solid state drive or at least it should have the ability to easily fit one.0 -
I'd say you're right, everywhere else including Acer themselves list it as a 1600x900 screen.0

1280×720 is HD Ready, but also sometimes referred to as HD.
1920×1080 is Full HD0
