The best summary I can think of for the Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook is that it’s a splendid product with some annoying details. On one hand, it’s a good all-rounder in an amazingly slim, lightweight package. On the other hand, the keyboard will take some...
While Acer is the first vendor to get its Ultrabook 'out there', the Aspire S3 unfortunately suffers from a lack of features and just feels a little underdone overall. It could use a backlit keyboard, some more connectivity (such as USB 3.0 and Gigabit...
No USB 3.0, Awkward port placement, Top processor option only available with a HDD, Screen resolution not as high as competition
On its own, the Acer Aspire S3 is a slim, good-looking bit of kit with powerful components under the hood. Sadly, it's beaten to the punch by the competition who offer better specs for the same money....
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

SSD cache allows for instant resume; affordable for an Ultrabook.
Battery life not as good as other Ultrabooks; lack of ports; tiny arrow keys.
With its hybrid drive, you pay less and get more storage capacity on the Aspire S3 than the typical Ultrabook. Performance and battery life, however, are not as good. ...
Abstract: The MacBook Air may be the reigning champ in the razor-thin laptop stakes, but what if you'd rather run Windows? Acer 's S3 is thin, light, packs a more powerful CPU, and costs less. Could this be the laptop (sorry, ‘Ultrabook') you've been waiting for?Wi...
