Ok na sana eh, sablay lang sa Video card… Sayang ganda sana ng specs…
that if you intend to gamings, but this is good for daily usage
for a brand like Acer, this is definitely overpriced
I had this ultrabook for a week now and
I can say it’s amazing so far. It’s thin,
light, fast and comfortable. It looks
good, it’s quiet and cool (I mean
temperature). Before I bought this I
read all the reviews available online. I
completely understand the reviewers
have to criticize something but for me
this computer works perfectly well. For
example, many people say that the keys
are too short. In my opinion the keys
are comfy. The screen is not the best,
but it’s very good. This is not a gamer
computer; it’s for the ones that need to
carry it from one place to the other.
Taking into account its size and weight,
I couldn’t expect more from this
machine. I come from a ThinkPad that is
a heavy duty. I can see this computer is
not as strong as the ThinkPad, but it’s
on a different league if you take into
account the price you pay for one of
the smallest computers available.
The Core i5 it’s powerful enough for the
tasks I perform (Web, Excel, Word, some
Photoshop). The SSD for “instant on”
works as magic. You open the computer
and its right there asking for your
password (if you setup one). Battery life
seems to be good although I can
imagine it will suffer in the long term as
I’m not able to remove the battery
when it’s plugged in. On normal use
(internet, mail, and few YouTube
videos) you get between 4 and 5 hours.
I haven’t tried playing a movie yet, but I
guess you’ll get enough power to watch
it all the way.
very nice Information, as a reference for comparing the differences in ultrabook products in my country who are talking about lately.
