Right to Repair

Score breakdown

Why this grade

PIRG ranks Acer #2 among laptop brands (B+ in 2025, B in 2026), with solid France-index disassembly scores and few software locks. No Acer model appears on iFixit's curated laptop score list, so repair-friendliness is inferred from PIRG's index data rather than a direct teardown score, and schematic openness is weaker than Dell/Lenovo. Graded low-C, just below PIRG's B.
