Several noteworthy updates in this second incarnation, including better cooling, Excellent touch pad sensitivity and accuracy, Luscious Gorilla Glass design, Strong performance and battery life
A six-row keyboard would have been better, Screen not the brightest, Dongles for extra video or LAN connectivity not included, No Thunderbolt
With plenty of competition in the $1,500-or-so "Haswell" clamshell crowd, the 13.3-inch Acer Aspire S7-392 edges ahead of most options. Its faults are few, and its many clever enhancements make this ultra-thin ultrabook a winner. ...
Strong performance in office applications and reasonable graphics capabilities, Dual-torque hinge means you can touch the screen without moving the display, Solid battery life, although there is room for improvement here, Sturdy, light chassis that should withstand day-to-day bumps and bangs
Keyboard layout puts important keys in unexpected places, Drive space is limited (though extremely fast)
At the outset of this evaluation, we said that the Acer Aspire S7 gives us a look at how far ultrabooks have come, but also lets us peek at where they’re headed. The Aspire S7 solves some of the major problems of early ultrabooks (like less than optima...

If your budget is generous and you have a taste for the best, the Acer Aspire S7 is a top contender. The glass lid, 0.51" slim design and 2.87 lb. weight make for a stylish and attractive Ultrabook that competes nicely with the also very light and chic...

Attractively styled and well-built, Great 1080p IPS touchscreen, RAID 0 SSD makes for very quick storage speeds, Improved port layout and key travel, Battery life goes from bottom-of-the-barrel to not-half-bad
Keyboard still uses an odd layout that seems unnecessary given the unused space in the palmrest, Tweaky trackpad, Not much of a performance upgrade over last year's model, though it's still plenty fast for most general computing tasks

Very thin and light. Strong build quality/sturdy materials. Dual friction hinge. Very good benchmark test performance. Speedy wake from sleep. 8GB of memory. 2.4 and 5GHz Wifi support. No Bloatware. Very good battery life. Full size HDMI port.
Odd keyboard layout. Could use a larger SSD array. Thinness is expensive
If you're looking for a svelte laptop to show off, yet still be able to do real work in Windows 8, the Acer Aspire S7-392-6411 is the ultrabook you want at the top of the list. It's the current pinnacle of the ultrabook trend and shows the brilliance tha...
Still thin, light, and attractive, Battery life is much improved, Better keyboard, Runs quieter than previous model
Gets very warm under load, Minor aesthetic issues mar the overall design, Keyboard still isn't great, Screen not as bright as previous model
For the most part, Acer's updated S7 is a triumph of improved design and internals. Battery life is a lot better (although screen brightness is sacrificed), the keyboard's travel no longer feels as shallow as a reflecting pool, and fan noise is no longe...
The battery life, obviously, but exceptional if not identical battery life is standard across every Haswell generation ultrabook. The screen is wonderful, and especially good on colors compared to some other panels. It's only really matched by the new Son
There's only one truly stupid thing about the S7, and that's its power button. It's on the back-left side, and it is astonishingly easy to press. In fact, it's in the exact location your index finger probably goes when you lift an open laptop. It's very a
Yes. Hell yes. This has been my favorite Windows laptop to date. The 14-inch Razer Blade was pretty wonderful as well, but its screen was too much of a letdown. We still need to take a look at the refreshed versions of other top ultrabooks—especially the...
