Acer Aspire 1820PT review

 

A netbook one minute, a tablet the next

Beefy comonents ; Nice design

Unresonsive touchscreen ; Not for games

Photos: Acer Aspire Timeline 1820P

 

Acer's new ultraportable convertible tablet supports multi-touch input but lacks an integrated optical drive.

Expert review by:

Acer Aspire 1820PT

 

Acer's 1820PT brings portability and excellent battery life firmly into the convertible tablet space.

Exceptional battery life ; Comfortable keyboard

32-bit Windows means the 4GB RAM can't be fully utilised ; Touch Portal is still a slow gimmick ; Ordinary graphics performance

As the price of regular notebooks drop, it's not surprising to see tablets dip as well. Acer's Aspire 1820PT offers everything a portable notebook user with moderate processing power might need at an attractive price point.

Acer Aspire 1820PT

 

My brother and I both recieved one each for Christmas. It's my first laptop that I haven't had to share with him, haha.

Good battery life, good touchscreen with stylus, touchscreen is so much better than touchpad thing, small and portable

Not a gaming laptop, no internal CD drive, laptop keyboards annoy me

great little computer

 

Great computer ! I was looking for a tablet PC, less expensive than the Ipad, and with more functionalities. This one is just great. I have been using it for a month now. A bit heavy for reading, and warm up a bit too much sometimes, but I could not...

Acer Aspire Timeline 1820PTZ-413G16N

 

Competent small laptop, with tablet/touch features. Fairly light

Hard drive only 160Gb - my fault for not reading the blurb, but I have upgraded to a 500Gb drive. The touch element is not that good, as I had read, but can be quite useful

First impression - excellent!

 

Im not going to write a detailed review yet because I have only just taken it out the box. First impressions though are excellent. The screen is super responsive, multi touch is spot on and the design is slick.
