Features:

If you are trying to look for a comparison between the Liquid Metal and the Stream, let me tell you few things about both. As far as the display is concerned, there is a slight difference between both the phones. Stream offers a 3.7 inches display whereas Liquid Metal has a smaller 3.6 inches one. Despite the name, Metal is mostly made up of plastic; whereas Stream is more metallic looking. As far as internet is concerned, the Stream has speed limit of 7.2 Mbps (with HSDPA), while our Liquid Metal goes up to 14.4 Mbps, which certainly is a very impressive speed.

How does this phone look like in front of you? Well, this is certainly a very attractive and nice looking cell phone with smart designing. Mostly, it is plastic but we can see a flake of stainless steel on the back which helps making it look strong and sturdy. The chassis on front has an outward curve that makes the screen look clearer and bigger than its actual size. Well, there is another curve on the phone, too, which is present on the back side. This curve has been created to fit the phone in one’s hand more easily. But it becomes a little irritating when the phone wobbles while resting on a table top.

3.6 inches might sound a little smaller than the existing rivals, but it offers detailed picture with 480 x 800 pixels. Below the display screen are the standard 4 touch sensitive Android buttons. Nothing can be seen on the left side of the phone, whereas the right side has volume rocker and camera clicker. Top side offers the power button and a 3.5 mm earphones slot. The bottom area is fitted with a microUSB port. The slenderness of Acer Liquid Metal will surely make you adore the beautiful gadget.

As far as the user interface is concerned, Acer has offered its own called Breeze. If it isn’t what you want to use on your Android based Liquid Metal, you can go for the Vanilla Android. There are five home screens to which you can add widgets of your choice; but not simply by tap and hold method. The main Home screen won’t show you any options. You will have to flip a turned up corner in the bottom left of the screen and this will take you to another screen which shows a row containing four application shortcuts on the bottom of the screen. You can choose widgets for your Home Screens by dragging this row upwards to reveal an area showing all the apps. Go to the “Widgets” app and choose from there. Or, you can press the Home button and hold it there until it takes you to the “Add a Widget” area.

The status and notification bar is not situated on the top of the screen as it usually does in cell phones; rather you can see this bar just above the four shortcuts row. Tap it and it takes you to a menu of different options like GPS, Wi-Fi, Network, alarm clock etc.

Browsing is easy and zooming will give you very nice view as screen’s resolution is pretty nice. Camera is a nice one, with good features. It captures HD video of 720 p @ 30 fps. You get two media players; a standard one and nemoPlayer; latter offers you Dolby Mobile Equalizer. You can shake the mobile right or left to go to previous or next song. Shaking it also quiets down a ringing alarm. You cannot find a radio in here.

Overall, this is a nice phone with all the required features, and a very nice price.

Product’s Unique Selling Points:

• Nice battery life
• Nicely priced
• Sharp display
• Very nice audio quality

Limitations:

• Back curve is annoying
• User interface is not very smooth

Basically, Acer manufactures two kinds of laptops; Aspire and TravelMate.

• Acer Aspire series includes Aspire, Aspire Ethos and Aspire Timeline X.
• Acer TravelMate series includes TravelMate and TravelMate Timeline X.

From all these 5 series, I have tried to choose the top laptops with best specs and nicest features. As you all know, best is going to cost way more than a casual and ordinary product. This is why, you will not see inexpensive and cost effective notebooks listed here. I might list the inexpensive laptops in yet another article. This article includes high end laptops with slightly higher price tags.

Let us begin with our list.

ACER ASPIRE ETHOS:

This series contains two laptops with awesomely wonderful specs and features. If you want to get a laptop which looks utterly beautiful and has real high end specs (and you care less about the price factor), Ethos is one machine you must get.

1. AS8943G-7748G50Bnss:

With Ethos 8943G, you get a full package; great multimedia centre, wonderful display screen, attractive design and built and impressive performance. First of all, you must understand that this is a huge laptop with an 18.4 inches display screen; therefore you will be unable to carry it around everywhere. It is more like a desktop replacement. The screen is Active Matrix TFT Color LCD with CineCrystal technology and 16:9 aspect ratio. With 1920 x 1080 pixels resolution, 8948G promises to offer crisp and vivid picture. A Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium runs the laptop, which is fitted with Intel Core i7 processing unit. RAM is 4GB whereas the HDD has the storage capacity of 500 GB. A BD-Reader is there to let you enjoy HD movies and games with high end graphics.

Design is utterly beautiful with a metallic lid and black plastic palm rest area. The keyboard has spacious isolated keys, protruding from a silver platform. Above the keyboard is a pair of stereo speakers, which work extremely well with a sub woofer built underneath the machine. Touchpad is a pleasure to look at, with piano black glossy finish. Clicking the circular button that rests between both mouse buttons transforms your touchpad into multimedia controlling touch panel. This is certainly a beautiful as well as useful feature of this high end laptop.

There are 5 USB ports, a 5-in-1 card reader, a VGA port, an eSATA and an HDMI port. You can also get hold of a TV tuner that comes with a portable compact antenna and full remote control. The cooling fan keeps on running; therefore it does not let the machine go hot. Acer has put a price tag of $599.99, but adding few extras (like a bigger HDD) will cost you more than that.

• ACER ASPIRE:

Aspire series consists of laptops equipped with all the necessary features for everyday use as well as designed beautifully. Following Aspire notebooks have been added to this list for their nice performance and high end specs.

2. AS7745G-7744G50Bnks:

Here is yet another heavy laptop which might work better sitting in place of your desktop instead of being carried around here and there. The 17.3 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD WSXGA display screen has 16:9 aspect ratio and 1600 x 900 pixels resolution. Just like any modern laptop, it also runs the Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium. The processing unit is a Quad-core, Intel Core i7 1.73 GHz and the RAM is 4GB. You get 500 GB Serial ATA HDD which offers plenty of storage space. For high definition movie watching experience, you get integrated BD-Reader.

As far as ports are concerned, there are 4 USB ports, an HDMI port, TV out, a 5-in-1 memory card reader and a VGA port. It has been priced at $1149.99.

3. AS5745G-6323:

Let us get out of these heavy-weight desktop replacements and talk about portability factor. This one is slim and has a smaller display screen than the above mentioned ones. Main specs are the same; Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium, Quad Core Intel Core i7 1.6 GHz processing unit, 4GB RAM (expandable to 8 GB) and 500 GB HDD. Screen is CineCrystal 15.6 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD having 16:9 aspect ratio and 1366 x 768 pixels resolution. You are deprived of BD-Reader in 5745G, and a DVD Writer replaces it. NVidia GeForce GT 420M GPU offers great graphics, and it can be turned off in order to save juice. There are 4 USB ports, a VGA and an HDMI port. Touch pad has multi touch functionality, too. Acer offers this laptop for $999.99.

4. AS5742-7765:

This 15.6 inches display laptop has some very nice specs and features which bring it in this list. It runs Windows 7 Home Premium and has a dual core Intel Core i5 2.53 GHz processor. 4 GB RAM is standard and it can be upgraded to 8 GB. No BD reader is present; instead there is a DVD Writer. 320 GB HDD is quite enough for a casual user.

Again you get an HDMI, a VGA and 3 USB ports. Wi-Fi and Ethernet are also there. Price is the nicest factor here; it is sold for $679.99 only which is way cheaper than the expensive models I have written about in the above paragraphs.

5. AS1551-4755:

Here is an ultra portable laptop with weight as less as 3.10 lbs and screen as small as 11.6 inches. This means easy carrying around of your machine with no hassle. Dual core AMD Athlon II Neo 1.30 GHz runs the 1551 with 3 GB of RAM (maximum 4 GB) and Windows 7 Home Premium. You get 250 GB of hard drive storage and a 5-in-1 media card reader. You will like the screen if you are into small displays. It is a CineCrystal 11.6 inches WXGA Active Matrix TFT LCD with 16:9 aspect ratio. Acer offers this machine for $499.99 only.

6. AS5745DG-3855:

For $999.99, there is a great deal of super features and specs that you can have your hands on. A Dual core Intel Core i5 2.4 GHz processor runs the whole system with efficiency; with the help of 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium and 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM. NVidia GeForce GT 42M deliver wonderful graphics on the CineCrystal 15.6 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD display. Storage capacity is pretty nice with 500 GB HDD. A Super-Multi optical drive has been integrated into the system.

7. AS7745-7949:

Though a bit heavy, but this laptop has a nice big display (CineCrystal 17.3 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD) which makes browsing as well as video watching a life time experience. A BD reader makes the whole thing more attractive, as it enables you not only to watch High Def movies but also you can play games with most modern graphics. To offer seamless gaming, there is a Dual core Intel Core i3 2.4 GHz processing unit with 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM (maximum 8 GB). Other specs include 500 GB Serial ATA HDD, 4 USB ports, an HDMI port, a VGA port and 5-in-1 Card reader. All of this really nice pack of features is offered to you for $799.99.

• ACER ASPIRE TIMELINE X:

As the name suggest, the Aspire TimelineX’s highlighting feature is the long battery backup time. Overall, the laptops in this series offer a battery life of 3-8 hours. Keeping in mind the portability features, Acer has combined the long battery hours with slimness of the machines. This way, you can easily take your Aspire TimelineX laptop with you on your trips, without bothering about battery and weight issues.

Let us have a look at the selected laptops from Acer Aspire TimelineX series.

8. AS1830T-68U118:

This machine is all about being portable and lightweight. Though it might be mistaken for a netbook due to the thinness as well as small screen size (11.6 inches); it is equipped with some of the most modern and high end specs and features. With 8 hours of battery backup time, this laptop promises you full support on long routes. There is a dual core Intel Core i7 1.46 GHz processor, Windows 7 Home Premium, 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM and 500 GB Serial ATA HDD.

The screen is CineCrystal 11.6 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD with 16:9 aspect ratio and 16.7 Million colour support. Unfortunately, there isn’t any optical drive, certainly due to the compact size. No special graphic feature is there, rather the integrated Intel HD Graphics have to do all the tasks. Therefore, do not expect high end gaming experience with this little one.

The worst part is its price; I certainly don’t like an 11.6 inches machine to be sold for $899.99. But the overall performance and high tech, somehow, explains the high price tag. You may go for other laptops of the same series with lower prices.

9. AS4820TG-5464G32Mnks:

I genuinely like the specs of this laptop as it is reasonably built; light in weight, slim and has perfectly adequate display size. The processing unit is a Dual core Intel Core i5 2.53 GHz with 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM (maximum 8 GB), 320 GB Serial ATA HDD and a DVD Writer for optical drive. CineCrystal 14 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD with 16.7 Million colours and 16:9 aspect ratio delivers real nice picture and video with the help of ATI Mobility Radeon HD Graphics. You get a TV out as well as an HDMI port. With battery backup time of 8 hours, this nice machine is being offered for $799.99 by Acer.

10. AS5820T-7683:

Here we have a laptop with Dual core Intel Core i3 2.4 GHz processor, 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM (maximum 8 GB), 320 GB HDD and a DVD writer. It has a CineCrystal 15.6 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD with 16:9 aspect ratio, TV out, an HDMI and 4 USB ports. Integrated Intel HD graphics try their best to deliver nice quality graphics, but it certainly cannot equate the dedicated GPUs present in most of the high end laptops these days.
You can get this laptop for $699.99.

• ACER TRAVELMATE:

This series focuses on business professionals who are constantly on the move and require feature packed portable machines. Also, these laptops are energy efficient as well as environment friendly.

11. TM6594-7323:

Though this laptop has a nice big screen (15.6 inches Active Matrix TFT LCD), the weight is pretty less. This certainly makes it easier to carry around on long trips. The 7 hours battery backup time is yet another plus point for the active travellers. It is run by Dual core Intel Core i5 2.66 GHz processor with 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM and Windows 7 Professional. You get a 500 GB Serial ATA hard drive which offers pretty decent space for storing your data. A DVD writer is also present for accessing external storage disks.
This package is available for $999 only.

12. TM5742-7908:

This computer is sold for $799 by Acer; though it has the same display screen size, Operating System and processor as does the above mentioned TravelMate. Where does the difference lie? Well; this machine has a 320 GB Serial ATA HDD instead of a 500 one, processor speed of 2.53 GHz instead of 2.66 GHz and no Finger Print reader. Also, the battery backup time has been cut down to 4 hours from the 7 hours 6594 boasts. Anyways, $200 is NOT a minor difference in price.

• ACER TRAVELMATE TIMELINE X:

Again, this series is designed specifically for professionals who travel frequently and their tough routine does not let them leave their computing devices even while on the go. This is why these machines are slim, light in weight, protected against shocks, free of hazardous materials; more secure, and offer longer battery backup hours.

13. TM8572-6430:

Portability being the major feature; this laptop is light weight and offers 7 hours of battery time. It has a 15.6 inches TFT LCD, dual core Intel Core i7 2.66 GHz processor, Windows 7 Professional, 4 GB RAM, 500 GB HDD and a DVD writer. Finger Print Reader protects the machine against unauthorized usage. There are 4 USB ports which will be pretty adequate for business purposes. This laptop is available for $1019.
14.     TM8572-6779:
Sold for $999.99, this machine has almost the same specs as the above mentioned laptop. This is why; we don’t see much difference in the prices of both computing devices.

15. TM8572-6752:

This is yet another notebook with 15.6 inches TFT LCD display. It is run by a dual core Intel Core i5 2.66 GHz processing unit with 4 GB RAM (maximum 8 GB) and Windows 7 Professional. You get a 320 GB HDD, a DVD writer, 5-in-1 card reader, TV out, 4 USB ports and 8 hour battery backup time. This laptop is sold for $919.

All these laptops are pretty well equipped with nicest specs and features, though prices matter all of us a bit. I hope you find this article useful.

The tablet industry is getting hot day by day and this is just a starting there is lot to come in future, recently the news of tablets has been received from two of the famous laptop developing companies Acer and Velocity Micro.

The pricing has been claimed to be started under £599 and there will be about 9 variants, the graphics brought for these laptops are also said to be quite well with AMD’s Mobility Radeon HD 5000 series graphics alongside Dolby Home Theater v3. When considered of the outlook, these come in some really small dimensions which ensure the ease of carrying them anywhere with you but the weight is not provided to be quiet low, the company has also announced that an 11.6-inch variant will also be available in later times. Thus we can say that Acer is bringing some real goodies for its users in the coming months.

One of the leading manufacturers of computers and laptops ‘Acer’ has announced that they are not going to follow the tablet PCs when every other company has been reported to going for it. This thing has been revealed by Acer Taiwan President Scott Lin and he cleared this thing in front of media that their company is not interested to debut an iPad like product rather they will remain stick to their own business policy and according to that they’ll go for some revolutionary ultra-thin laptops.

According to Lin “Apple has built its business out of carving its own niche, which means that while Apple could see success with devices like the iPad, other players are unlikely to be able to replicate its result simply by copying”. Lin also cleared that their company is not at all threatened by the iPad’s reputation in the market and he claim that the two devices are not claiming for the same space in the market. The new product range of thin laptops accounts for 20-30 percent of the company’s business this year and according to Lim the new models will be less than 2cm thick that would be quite revolutionary for the international markets. So this decision of Acer will bring a new competition into the international computers and laptops markets apart from the tablet.

Mobile industry is one of the fastest industries of the world which is advancing at a very huge rate and some really effective changes can be seen in the recent times in terms of technology. Acer has been very famous in the laptop industry but now it has jumped into the Smartphone industry and some really remarkable Smartphones have hit the market coming from Acer.
