Can be used as both a laptop and a slate tablet, Versatile magnetic hinge, Full 1080p HD In-Plane Switching (IPS) screen, No bloatware, Nice price,
Top-heavy, Weak volume on speakers, Aggressive adaptive brightness
The Acer Aspire Switch 11 is a midrange detachable tablet that gives you the option of leaving your keyboard behind and still having a fully functional Windows 8.1 PC...
Acer has a winner with its new Aspire Switch 11. This laptop is attractive to behold, and the screen quality is excellent. Both of these are coupled with a solid design allowing the machine to be the best of both worlds — when using it as a laptop, you'd...
The Acer Aspire Switch 11 is a 2-in-1 hybrid that offers solid power and performance for the money, but short battery life and a top-heavy design hold it back....
With a price of just about 600 Euros (~$690), the Aspire Switch 11 SW5-171-31U3 is about 300 Euros (~$350) cheaper than the Core i5 sister model, which we have also recently tested. The Core i3 processor offers more than enough performance for everyday us...
Fast SATA-SSD, Storage capacity with HDD, IPS panel with wide viewing angles, Two type A USB ports, Digitizer pen included
Feedback of the keyboard, Comparatively short battery runtimes, Brightness reduced on battery power, Clouding at the edges, Poor webcam/microphone, Slow HDD in the dock
Because of the mentioned issues we cannot give a real recommendation for the device. If you like the concept with an HDD in a convertible, you should have a closer look at the IdeaPad Yoga 2 11 and the Asus Transformer Book Trio TX201LA.Read all 3 comment...
Good battery life, Runs Windows software, Dockable hybrid tablet, Fairly affordable, USB port
Not great build or design, Awful performance, 32bit only, Heavy, Poor keyboard
Although the Switch 11 isn't terrible, it's a mediocre tablet, laptop and Windows experience. Best to look elsewhere....

Abstract: Having recently covered the high-end Dell Latitude 7350, I've been interested in seeing a similar concept that doesn't cost nearly a grand. The Acer Aspire Switch 11 has many design similarities but costs just a third of the Dell. The Acer might be more ...
