Very slim and light, Good general performance: CPU, RAM and SSD, 5h battery life, Quality audio in/out, Moderate temperatures
TN panel with very low contrast and inaccurate colours, Reduced connectivity, Speakers lack power, Low gaming capacity, No USB 3.0
Although imperfect (glossy mediocre quality screen, poor connectivity), the Acer Aspire S3 does deliver in terms of battery life, processing power and thickness (under 2 cm). Although the MacBook Airs still have certain advantages over this model, notably...
Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook verdict Should you buy an S3 Ultrabook? Well, yes. Unless you don't. The MacBook Air remains the better built machine, has the sharper screen and has high-speed Thunderbolt for express file transfer. Spec it up to the Acer's numbe...
Slim, thin, lightweight, handy case, Two USB 3.0 ports, The innards are easily accessible, Two year warranty
The hard disk slows down the system, The maximum computing power is not permanently available during full load
While the previous Acer Aspire S3-951 ultrabook could point toward its relatively low price, especially for an ultrabook, to convince consumers to buy it, this no longer applies to the Acer Aspire S3-391 as there are now a few ultrabooks that are consider...

With a slim, MacBook-Air-like design at a reasonable price, the Acer Aspire S3 is an example of how the Ultrabook laptop category can work if done right
The construction is a step below superpremium, connectivity is limited, and battery life is on the low side of acceptable
The Acer Aspire S3 is the closest you can get to the look and feel of a MacBook Air for less than $1,000, but it requires a few compromises....

Slight difference in sizeAs I previously stated, the build quality is significantly better and is much lighter than its predecessor – 1.2kg vs 1.35kg. It is slightly larger too, if you look at this comparison here (ignore those 2 games, some of my favouri...

Abstract: IFA 2011 has been attacked and barraged by ultrabooks. Almost all of them borrowed the looks of the Apple Macbook Air and Acer had just announced the newest member of the ultrabooks that is set to compete with other ultrabooks and the cheapest portable ma...
