The Acer Aspire S7 Ultrabook is one of a new breed of Windows 8-powered super thin laptops aimed at stealing market share away from Apple and its MacBook Air line. It’s got the specs to impress: a 13-inch HD screen, a waif-like 11.9mm profile, super fa...
We won’t name names, but some Windows Ultrabook makers have completely ripped off Apple’s design (Oh go on then: we mean you, Asus). The Aspire S7 doesn’t suffer from this: it may be thin and light with a tapering chassis, but its metal frame and white lacquered top give it its own unique style, and it’s one we’re quite taken with. Acer’s managed to stuff plenty of ports into the slim frame too:...
While we like the design of the Acer Aspire S7, we’re a bit baffled by some of the nonsense Acer’s scrawled on it around the keyboard. We doubt you’ll feel the need to be constantly reminded that it’s been “Professionally Tuned”, or that the sound has been “Dolby Home Theater”-ified.But that’s a minor issue. The S7’s greatest sin is its trackpad. It’s loose and unresponsive in a way that’ll leave...
The Acer Aspire S7 has lots going for it: Windows 8 on a touchscreen works a treat, and its design is all its own. But in a world where a similarly sized MacBook Air costs as little as £850, there seems little point in bothering with rivals priced well...

Acer's got the S7's exterior design locked down, the slender design, low weight and 1080p screen are each huge plus points. But under the hood the Intel Core i5 processor isn't much to shout about for the near-£1200 price tag. The S7 doesn't have any *...
