I've had the laptop for just a few days, ran it through its paces and even took it apart to see what things I can change/add to it. The only thing I'm slightly disappointed with is that my particular laptop came with (2) 4 GB memory cards instead of (1) 8 GB memory card. On the bright side, neither are permanent so I'll have more flexibility if I decide to upgrade the memory. While I had the back cover off, I was happy to see that I can easily add a second PCIe drive or a SSD drive. (I've ask Santa to get me a 1 TB PCIe drive and I'm hopeful I'll get it cause I've been pretty good this past year.) :D
Comparing the specs between the i5 and the i7, the biggest thing for me was the Thunderbolt 4 port on the I5 which the i7 did not have. (That really surprised me.) This one little port is AMAZING because you can connect it to a Docking Station and the sky is the limit. I picked up the Fusion5 (14 in 1) docking station that allows me to add 3 monitors, a 100 watt charger (which charges the laptop), and a lot of other ports. In short, this one port allows this laptop to go from a 'laptop' to a full blown 'desktop' by connecting just one cable.
Getting back to the laptop, it's definitely worth the money (especially when it's on sale). I love that you can easily upgrade the RAM and add additional storage space. It's nice that the keyboard is 'backlit' but the annoying part is that it turns off after 30 seconds (when not typing). HOWEVER, there is a setting in the BIOS that will keep the 'backlight' on all the time. (You can see how to do it on YouTube and ACER's website has instructions as well.)
As far as the product goes, it's good for me. It's fast, responsive and does everything I need it to do. It's also lightweight and easy enough to open up for upgrades. I know. I've owned it two weeks and already had it open twice.
That leads to my gripes with the vendor and Amazon. The vendor knows high ratings, especially a lot of them pull in buyers. After all, what's not to like about a 4+ star rating from thousands of people. The problem with this case is that the product has varied over a significant period of time, covering multiple processors and memory configurations. The specs listed tell you what the machine has, not what it's capable of running. Digging through the comments and questions turns into a mind-numbingly tedious process of trying to find someone who knows something about your specific model.
Mine came with 8gb of ram. I dug through comments and questions, finally asked my own regarding the maximum memory the machine could use. I got nothing but confusion. Two different memory vendors gave me equally confusing results with both declaring different upgrade potential.
Eventually, I took the most common answer that the machine had one upgradeable slot and one memory stick soldered to the board. I bought a 16gb stick, opened the machine and guess what? I had two 4 gb sticks, both of which were upgradeable. I bought another stick and now have 32 gbs of ram, which I believe is the max for this machine.
Your mileage may vary given that finding consistency in the questions, comments, reviews and vendor replies is virtually impossible. So if you wonder? Turn it over. Remove the 10 screws on the back. I used a guitar pick to pry the back panel off. You Tube is your friend for details on that. Don't worry about finding your specific model. All the A515's appear to be consistent at least in how you get to the memory.
Now my gripe with Amazon. Most of the reviews you read will not be remotely related to the machine you buy. The vendor knows this. Amazon should know this. This is deceptive marketing at it's finest.
But as far as the A515-57-53T2 with the 12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U, it seems like a good machine. It's blindingly fast compared to my old computer. It runs everything I need it to run, which isn't a lot honestly. I do some writing, some photo editing, light gaming, you know, general stuff. For that? It's great.
PS, just in case you're wondering, there is a extra bay inside for another hard drive. (At least, in mine).
Good luck.

As mentioned by other reviewer, the Thunderbird 4 port supports USB charging which is a good feature to have. 👍
Replaced 1 of the RAM modules with a 32GB stick and total RAM was 36GB so I believe it can utilize 64GB.
Machine temperature well below 176F/80C under stress for hours, probably due to throttling.
Still, the 12th gen i5 Intel CPU, Iris Xe handles few years old AAA games without issue, i.e. The Crew, The Division, ...
System came with full version of Cyberlink Power Director 14.
2 RAM slots and 2 disk storage slots.
Con:
Been using a full size keyboard so not used to the arrow and numeric keys size and arrangement although this is not the only machine with such layout.
No fingerprint reader
No SD Card reader
