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...

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...
