Acer Aspire Ethos AS5951G-9694 Pro Reviews

computershopper‘s review Edit

The Acer Ethos Aspire 5951G-9694 is a more-than-capable performer in its class. It also offers some Lexus-level conveniences that place it a cut above more pedestrian models in the $1,400 price range. While the model of Sony's VAIO F Series that we tested gave it a run for its money in CPU performance, the small gains there were insignificant compared with the big wins by the Acer Ethos Aspire in graphics performance and battery life. If you watch lots of media files on your laptop—especially music and video—the much longer battery life makes the Acer model the better choice.

This is a very capable, desktop-replacement notebook. As well as being a high spec Windows 7 Pro platform, it offers good multimedia support, though you'll have to stretch your budget a bit higher for Blu-ray. Keyboard and the touchpad remote are highlights, but a fast processor and vast dollops of memory come close behind.

SlashGear‘s review Edit

The Acer Aspire Ethos 5951G is a premium entertainment, multimedia, and gaming notebook that offers sophisticated styling, a solid build, and superb performance. It sports a Blu-ray drive, excellent sound quality, and boasts a unique removable multi-touch trackpad that doubles as a remote control, adding convenience as well as a “cool” factor. There’s not too much we can pick on about the laptop, except that perhaps it’s still not quite as portable as its 15.6-inch size might suggest. While it’s definitely more portable than the 18.4-inch 8951G, it still weighs a hefty 7.28 lbs—not something you’d want to be lugging around town.

A nicely-designed, metal-clad multimedia powerhouse, the Ethos 5951G packs generous specifications, excellent connectivity and plenty of features for its price, not least of which is a unique and innovative removable touchpad that makes using the machine when hooked up to your TV or stereo a lot easier. If this feature appeals and you want to run some games, it's worth checking out – despite its lack of a Blu-ray drive and somewhat mediocre screen. Otherwise, these omissions combined with its slight premium means cheaper alternatives might be a better bet.

A few very clever features that aren’t well suited to a laptop of this size make the Ethos poor value, despite the powerful hardware and excellent gaming performance.
