Abstract: Acer's first Ultrabook packs in a dual-core Intel Core i7 ULV processorThe Acer Aspire S3 ( £899 inc. VAT ) is one of Acer's dinkiest laptops yet, and the price is appealing considering the impressive specs list. With a thickness of 18mm at its widest poi...
slim and light, decent performances, affordable price, runs cool
looks and feels cheap, awful keyboard, poor speakers, slow HDD, short battery life
The Acer Aspire S3 is the cheapest ultrabook in stores, but in order to get to this price point, Acer had to cur corners. Thus, the end product is not as fast, as well built or as good as most of its competitors....

Very slim and light, Good general performance: CPU, RAM and SSD, 5h battery life, Quality audio in/out, Moderate temperatures
TN panel with very low contrast and inaccurate colours, Reduced connectivity, Speakers lack power, Low gaming capacity, No USB 3.0
Although imperfect (glossy mediocre quality screen, poor connectivity), the Acer Aspire S3 does deliver in terms of battery life, processing power and thickness (under 2 cm). Although the MacBook Airs still have certain advantages over this model, notably...
Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook verdict Should you buy an S3 Ultrabook? Well, yes. Unless you don't. The MacBook Air remains the better built machine, has the sharper screen and has high-speed Thunderbolt for express file transfer. Spec it up to the Acer's numbe...

Abstract: This is an ideal ultra-book with a blend of both SSD and HDD experience. Powered by Intel Core-i7 processor and 4GB RAM, the latest Aspire S3 has been upgraded with the latest Ivybridge processor. It is ultra slim and despite the metallic build, it is an ultra-ligh...
Very good keypad, Slim form factor, Decent performance, Generous storage space, Reasonably priced
Touchpad response is iffy, Battery life isn't the best around, Display hinge isn't the strongest
For an ultrabook that costs around Rs. 50,000, the Acer Aspire S3 does have a lot going for it - good build quality, true-to-ultrabook sleek form factor and snappy performance. Essentially, this will appeal to those who want an ultrabook on a budget...
Besides, if a few things Acer Aspire S3 manages to improvise on, before it reaches the market then it certainly can be a deal maker. The S3 needs to address the trackpad click action and narrow viewing angles could as well be improved. Nonetheless, the S3...

Slight difference in sizeAs I previously stated, the build quality is significantly better and is much lighter than its predecessor – 1.2kg vs 1.35kg. It is slightly larger too, if you look at this comparison here (ignore those 2 games, some of my favouri...

Abstract: IFA 2011 has been attacked and barraged by ultrabooks. Almost all of them borrowed the looks of the Apple Macbook Air and Acer had just announced the newest member of the ultrabooks that is set to compete with other ultrabooks and the cheapest portable ma...
