Review Acer Aspire 5830TG Notebook

Summer Breeze.The Acer Aspire TimelineX series is getting new hardware and a fresh new look. The 5830TG laptop, with a 15.6 inch display, is the spearhead of the new lineup. Thanks to its Nvidia GeForce GT 540M graphics chip, the laptop can also...

Stylish, modern design ; New isolation keyboard ; Good connectivity ; Great multimedia hardware ; Low power usage (Idle) ; High battery life thanks to Nvidia Optimus ; Good sound system

Case sturdiness is poor in a few places ; Positioning of the ports ; Glossy 15.6 inch display ; Average display values ; CPU throttling also runs during the day (gaming) ; Securely integrated 6 cell battery

The CPU Thermal Throttling starts from a relatively low temperature. Acer hopes to improve this by updating the BIOS

Acer Aspire TimelineX 5830TG

Acer laptops more often than not provide great value for money, as far as comparisons with similar priced laptops are concerned. This is particularly true for notebooks priced around and under the Rs.

Acer’s Aspire TimelineX 5830TG is priced at Rs. 42,229. The only drawback of worthy mention was the build quality. It comes with all the features you'd require in your notebook – good looks, performance and more so, at an interesting price. As compared...

Acer TimelineX 5830TG Hits a Sweet Spot in Price and Performance

The Acer TimelineX 5830TG sets itself apart from the 15-inch laptop crowd with its angular good looks. But it's also a solid performer and a decent gaming machine, and--with 8 hours, 17 minutes of battery life--a long-distance runner. At a penny less...

Good performer ; Excellent battery life

Slightly narrrow viewing angle ; Crowded software installation

Angularly stylish, with battery life for miles, this laptop is also a good performer. The 5830TG gives you a lot of bang for your buck.

Acer Aspire TimelineX 5830TG-6402

The palm rest is covered with plastic, but the keyboard and number pad are surrounded with bare, brushed aluminum. The black chiclet-style keys have a smooth matte finish, and the typing experience is quite comfortable. The only unusual feature of the...

Updated look with sturdy aluminum and plastic construction. Intel Core i5-2410M processor is fast and powerful. Nvidia GeForce GT520M with automatic switching. Bluetooth. Clear.fi

Runs hot. Feature set has a couple holes

The Acer Aspire TimelineX 5830TG-6402 combines an Intel Core i5 processor, Nvidia switchable graphics, and all day battery-life to make it a smart buy for any budget.

Wow just wow

I have had this laptop for about 2 weeks now and I couldn't be happier. It is super light, quiet, and never gets hot. I used the balanced power mode and get well above 8 hours of actual use at school. Typically I am running powerpoint, word, outlook,...
