Acer Aspire S7-391-6810 Pro Reviews

If you’re just looking for a thin and light ultrabook and don’t need the touchscreen, the Samsung Series 9 might be a better option. Or if you’re looking for a touchscreen notebook but don’t care as much about performance or battery life, the Asus VivoBook X202e isn’t a bad option.

Acer’s S7 is sleek, sexy, and quick. It’s incredible that the company has managed to craft a laptop that performs so well while also keeping the chassis small, light, and attractive. The attention to detail is not on par with design leaders like Apple and Asus, but the broad strokes are as good or better. It’s refreshing to see a unique design. We’ve mentioned before that we’re a bit tired of reserved brushed-aluminum laptops and would like a fresh look. The S7 delivers that. It also delivers an incredibly thin profile and low weight without compromising display quality or performance. Only a few quirks keep the laptop from ranking among the best Ultrabooks. We just couldn’t look past two major issues. The first is the keyboard, which is the worst we’ve used in recent memory; and the second is the loud and aggressive system fan. These issues may not be deal-breakers for everyone, but both are easy to notice. Even consumers who don’t normally give these traits a moment’s thought should pause to consider them.
