The Acer Revo is an attractive mini desktop with plenty of storage for media files
Which can easily play 4K video
Like the TARDIS
It's bigger inside than it appears
Dual 2.5-inch drive bays provide lots of internal storage potential
Attractive

Better CPU for the price would have been appreciated

Acer has built a tiny little guy that offers more than enough storage options, connectivity and its simple minimalistic design will fit in most environments without attracting too much attention. The Revo mini PC will do the job just fine for what's inten...

One of a very few PCs we'd call cute, the Acer Revo One packs a fully equipped Core i5 desktop into a tiny package. Its two open modular drive bays let it double as a teensy but roomy server. There are cheaper options, but few let you fit so much storage...

Great design, Superb storage capacity, Tiny footprint
Tight ports and fittings, Lowered specs on high street model, Poor remote control
This highly compact mini-PC is really smartly designed, save for a couple of niggles, and is great for home entertainment duties, plus it offers some useful additional features...
Very, very small for a desktop, and can even take on the tiny Brix and NUC computers; Upgradeable hard drives; Includes an SD card slot in an easy to find place (up top); Fairly quiet; Allows smartphones to be used as a mouse;
Specs need work; Feels cheap; Included mouse isn't the best, so replace it pronto; A little on the expensive side for what amounts to an Ultrabook in a plastic case made for the desktop;
You have to admire the slight gamble that the Revo is, with Acer trying to show that it can still innovate in the desktop space with a machine that sort of takes that older style of machine and makes it relevant for the home theatre, too.And there are asp...
