| A short review of the Acer Aspire S3-951-6646 Ultrabook With 13.3-Inch HD Display. The Acer S3 Ultra book, the PC that can have you instantly powered on and connected to the Web in no time. The ultrathin 13.3" design weighing at just over 3lbs. Pros: -Laptop does not show any traces of fingerprints. -Screen is very sharp and clear. Yes, its glossy but its a "comfortable glossy." -Keys are very responsive and comfortable. You do have to press a little bit more but that's easy to get comfortable with. -The touchpad is one of the best I've ever used on any Windows laptop. Very smooth, very responsive like a Macbook. -Great performance with the i5 processor -Super fast bootup and screen on/off time -Simple and basic in terms of ports (2) USB and HDMI which are positioned perfectly in the back. No need for laptops to have tons of ports on the sides and back adding bulk to it. -For the price its a steal compared to what other manufacturers are asking. Cons: -The up/down/left/right keys are tiny, but eventually you willget used to it -Battery life is not as long as MacBook Air but its still descent for an ultrabook. -Its true that the click button below the touchpad you have to press hard, mostly for a right click, however if you go into mouse settings and just enable "single tap" and set up "double tap" as a pop up menu, you will have no need to press down on pad at all. This has such amazing trackpad drivers that I can breeze through pages and screens with hardly any effort. Don't let the Acer name or price fool you, this laptop is a gem with best design, performance and feel. I got mine from a Microsoft Store which has the Microsoft Signature service (basically they re-load the OS with no bloatware). If your in the market for a Windows 7 thin, fast and on the go laptop, this is a great one for you! Enjoy. youranchortext |
