How to find Acer model

Model number of any laptop computer usually consists of numbers and letters, and may include a series name. Model number is meant to identify an entire specific line up of laptop computers, and identical computers from the same line up will have identical or slightly varying model names. Unlike serial numbers, service tags or asset tags model name and number is not unique to each individual computer.

Acer computers have labels that are usually found on the back of the computer. Acer uses three types of model number nomenclature and we attempt to list every type of model number on our website. Please do not confuse a model number with a serial number.

Acer has released a few different series of laptops and it is best to include series name during your search to narrow down the results and to avoid confusion with the model numbers that cross-over between different series of Acer computers.

As well try to include the full model number in your search on our website for the most appropriate results:

i.e. Aspire V5-571 P-6866 (or MS2361 - Acer separate/parallel model number nomenclature)

A third type of Acer nomenclature usually indicates the specific Processor / RAM and HDD options that the computer shipped with from the factory codified in the model number.

i.e. Aspire S3-391-53314G52add

The box that your Acer computer shipped in will also likely have a model number that can be used to locate the corresponding LCD replacement on our site:

i.e. C720-2420
