  • I wanted to confirm. So, I buy this laptop, remove the existing 4 GB RAM, buy two "Kingston 8 GB RAM FOR LAPTOP 1600MHZ PC3L - KVR16LS118 (LOW VOLTAGE)" RAMs and install it? Apr 9, 2017 at 6:45

This site lists compatible upgrades and indeed claims a maximum memory of 16 GB, but specifies the model as "Acer Aspire ES1-572 -357C ".

Maximum Memory:16GB
Slots:2 (2 banks of 1)
*Not to exceed manufacturer supported memory

Apparently though, you need to buy two 8-GB modules:

Crucial 16GB Kit (2 x 8GB) DDR3L-1600 SODIMM
CT8895927

DDR3 PC3-12800 • CL=11 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1600 • 1.35V • 1024Meg x 64
• upgrade for Acer Aspire ES1-572-357C system.
