Review Acer Aspire 5820TG Notebook

Frugal Gamer. A good HD 5650 graphics, perfect performance with a ...

Good 3D performance; High application performance; Low power consumption; Hybrid: HD 5650 can be disabled; Fast 750GB HDD; High-end haptics; Quiet in office mode; Good touchpad

Loud under load; Few interfaces; Contrast weak display; TFT fairly dark, not AR coated; Imprecise keys

We hardly ever encounter such a solid aluminum lid. This should become industrial standard

Acer Aspire TimelineX AS5820T-5951

The Acer Aspire TimelineX AS5820T-5951 is stripped of the bells and whistlesthe Blu-ray drive, graphics power, a top-tier processorbut it does so to arrive at a tempting price. It's a desktop replacement laptop that gives you the core things laptop...

Sleek metal design. Standard volt processor. Over 7 hours of battery life. Lightest in its class. Great user experience. Very inexpensive

Lacks any sort of cutting edge features, like Blu-ray and discrete graphics

The Acer TimelineX AS5820T-5951 is a metal-clad PC that delivered over 7 hours of battery life, and runs a standard volt processornot bad for a $700 laptop.

Acer Aspire Timeline X 5820TG - HardwareZone.com

The Aspire TimelineX series in the pursuit of the extreme: extreme performance, extreme battery life, extreme connectivity and extremely thin designs. With the new Aspire TimelineX series there is no need of making compromises: you can have it all.

Very Affordable; Excellent battery life

No outstanding features

Acer Aspire Timeline X 5820TG - Timeless Classic

The Acer Aspire Timeline X series has always been a favorite of ours, so we grabbed the 15.6-inch version, the Timeline X 5820TG to see how it holds up against other similar notebooks. Our verdict? It's still a likable machine despite its classic design.

Decent Laptop

Great processing power for the price, comfortable keyboard, 15 inch display. All in all I am very happy with my computer. I don't expect much from laptop speakers of cameras. Bluetooth is not a necessity. I was able to emulate PlayStation 2 games at hi...

15 Inch Screen, Intel i5 Processor, Price, Comfortable Keyboard

No Bluetooth, No Hi End Graphics, Speakers are terrible

Got the power in gaming and in work using graphics.

The memory and graphics combined for gaming and work use

The hard drive is quite small to handle large files. Working with graphics will be touch and go for storage

nice laptop

I would recommend buying this laptop, don't worry about the product name. Nice screen graphics, sound is ok, no laptop has good sound anyway. Good battery life, so far no problems with it.

DO NOT BUY ACER COMPUTERS

The computer worked fine while under warranty. However, after 1.5 years the motherboard gave out on it and it will no longer power up. Replacing the motherboard is a $400 adventure....time for a new computer. You can bet it will not be a Acer. I am not...
