Who said ultrabooks had to be small? Certainly not Acer with its new 15.6in Aspire Timeline Ultra M3-581TG-72634G52Mnkk - a laptop that promises ultrabook portability and responsiveness with the raw power needed for tasks like intensive gaming. But w...

Remember the Acer Aspire Timeline 581T – or, to give it its full name, the Acer Aspire Timeline U M3 Ultra 581T-32364G34Mnkk? It's a 15in Ultrabook that, at under £500, was one of the cheapest Ultrabooks going. Inevitably then, its specifications were far...

Ultrabook is the term for the latest generation laptops using efficient Intel processors. Until now only smaller models were available, equipped with an 11.6-inch, 13-inch or 14-inch screens. Now the first larger Ultrabooks are beginning to emerge, such...

The Acer Aspire M3 weighs under 2 kg, has a pretty fast SSD, and thanks to the GeForce GT640M you can definitely play video games in 1366x768 resolution. Moreover, the battery life is very good. The one drawback is perhaps that the processor isn't that...

Acer Aspire Timeline U M3 Ultra 581T-32364G34Mnkk. That's quite a mouthful – in fact, far too much of a mouthful, really; Philips has nothing on Acer when it comes to overcomplicated model numbers. Unfortunately, we can't just call this laptop the Acer As...

At 15.6 inches, 2.1kg, and with a built-in optical drive, a discrete graphics adapter and a Core i7 CPU, it's hard to consider the Acer Aspire Timeline Ultra M3 an Ultrabook. It feels too big to be in the same class as many of the other Ultrabooks that...

With a glossy 1366 x 768 pixel TN display, the M3's screen is far from the best in its category. For example, with its 1600 x 900 pixel screen the UX31E displays more information in a smaller space (13.3"). To make matters worse, the M3's screen has a...
