While the previous Acer Aspire S3-951 ultrabook could point toward its relatively low price, especially for an ultrabook, to convince consumers to buy it, this no longer applies to the Acer Aspire S3-391 as there are now a few ultrabooks that are consider...

Abstract: If there was anything that can be pointed to as “the” thing CES was about, it's the ultrabook. These thin and portable laptops were presented by Intel with all the finesse of a sledgehammer. Intel's message is clear. Ultrabooks are here, and you're going ...

Abstract: We have heard a massive amount of hype about Ultrabooks, ever since we attended ASUS' launch at Computex this year . But Acer has the distinction of being the first company to actually put a production model of its S3 Ultrabook in our hands, and what a be...

With a slim, MacBook-Air-like design at a reasonable price, the Acer Aspire S3 is an example of how the Ultrabook laptop category can work if done right
The construction is a step below superpremium, connectivity is limited, and battery life is on the low side of acceptable
The Acer Aspire S3 is the closest you can get to the look and feel of a MacBook Air for less than $1,000, but it requires a few compromises....

Abstract: The Acer Aspire S3 has undergone a design overhaul. The 13.3-inch touchscreen laptop now takes several cues from its Aspire S7 cousin. The white-finish laptop sports the latest Intel Haswell chipset to bring it up to date for 2013, but also has a 180-degr...

The Aspire S7 remains the best Ultrabook I've ever used. While there are obvious points of improvement in terms of battery life, beyond this flaw the Aspire S7 simple soars. A top Ultrabook and a new high standard for Acer design.ProsThin and beautiful de...

Keenly priced, Attractive brushed aluminium look, Latest Core i5 CPU and HD 4000 graphics
Ports mostly on rear edge, Meagre port allocation
The Acer Aspire S3 is not the perfect Ultrabook. The port allocation and positioning will be distinct drawbacks for some users. The 3D performance and battery life also can't quite match the top premium models, even those sporting the same processor. Bu...
Abstract: The buzzword around today is Ultrabook not simply because they are small and light but they also boot exceedingly fast. So what exactly does this Acer unit have to offer that will make you reach into your wallet to buy....
Slender, light, attractive design, SD card slot, aluminium lid
Not a great screen resolution or viewing angle, plasticky keyboard with bunched up keys, no USB 3.0, poor USB port placement at the rear, so-so battery life, pricey for what it is, review configuration isn't one available off the shelf
From the outside the Acer Aspire S3 looks like a charmer. But open it up and the bunched-up keyboard and so-so screen resolution with equally so-so viewing angle are two big issues with this model. Performance from the Intel i7 processor and 4GB of RAM...
