Review Acer TravelMate 6595-2524G50Mikk Notebook

 

Travel-Office A 3G/UMTS module and a long battery runtime make this laptop to a true traveler. Moreover, security features such as a fingerprint sensor or a SmartCard reader qualify the TravelMate as a business notebook. Does the solid computer have...

Acer Travelmate 8441T-6440

 

The 8481T-6440's keyboard is borrowed from Acer's Aspire Consumer line: big chiclet-style keys that appear as if they're floating off of the foundation. The typing experience isn't nearly as superb as that of the Lenovo X1 and Dell V131, but it'll...

Sleek metallic design. Lightweight. Huge battery lasted 11 hours. USB 3.0 and eSATA interfaces. Excellent navigating experience. Packs 14-inch screen in 13-inch frame

Color selection is a bit mundane

What little the Acer Travelmate 8441T-6440 business laptop gives up in horsepower, it gains back with a sleek, ultrabook-like design (low volt processor requires fewer clunky cooling fans) and over 11 hours of battery life.

Acer TravelMate 8000

 

Weighing inat 2.8kg the TravelMate 8000 is not only light but also has a very nice sleek design. Its chassis is 331.5 (W) x 280.7 (D) x 33.2 (H) mm which is a very nice size and is easy to carryaround. The good thing about the design is the absence of...

Power plug was very annoying and didn’t work most of the time ; Kept crashing in doom 3 benchmark and wouldn't complete pc mark 04

Acer Aspire 5315

 

The Acer Aspire 5315 is one of the cheapest laptops on the market and it shows. I've owned it for just over a year and it has deteriorated massively in that time. It has slowed to a crawl and simple tasks are a nightmare. For example opening iTunes

Nice Starter Laptop

 

Nice Starter Laptop

I purchased two of these laptops for my children, ages 10 and 8. For their purposes (school, YouTube, etc.) these are super starter laptops. I've used them myself briefly and I have had little issue with them.

Consumer review by:

Suprised, but impressed with this machine.

 

I was kind of unsure when I bought this machine. I had heard horror stories from others about other Acer machines. But when my last laptop died, I was in a bind. I needed a computer, but didn't have the money to buy an expensive machine. The Acer...
