Reviews

  • Acer Extensa 5635Z

    The Extensa is a business laptop with no particular frills. That's not a bad thing per se, but it's tough to get too excited about it, either.

  • Acer Aspire 5536

    The Acer Aspire 5536 is a little light on battery, but it's a good all-rounder for anyone seeking an affordable laptop with a big screen and keyboard.

  • Acer Aspire One D250

    For the price, it's hard to find fault with Acer's even cheaper version of the 10.1-inch Aspire One, as long as you're not expecting top-of-the-line features.

  • Acer G24 LCD Monitor

    While its gaming performance is stellar, due to its ultra-glossy and reflective screen its viewing angle is unforgiving. It's also not the most ideal monitor for colour accuracy.

  • Acer Aspire Timeline 4810T

    Since when did vendor battery claims actually represent the truth? Acer's Timeline notebook just keeps going and going and going, but it's a pity that it's otherwise underpowered and hampered by Windows Vista.

  • Acer Aspire One AOD150

    The new 10-inch Aspire One AOD150 will further cement Acer's lead in the netbook market, largely on account of its price.

  • Acer Aspire 8930G (Core 2 Duo T9400 processor 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM)

    With a true 1080p display, the 18-inch Acer Aspire 8930G is a capable HD content playback machine.

  • Acer Aspire Gemstone 6930G

    Keeping up the 16:9 ratio trend, Acer launches this 16-inch multimedia laptop into the market, with Centrino 2 certification.
