Netbook Reviews

The Acer Aspire One 532h was announced at the start of the year and has been available for a number of months now.

It is currently one of Acer’s best selling netbooks on the market today, and after spending some time with it, it is easy to see why it is so popular.

The 10.1-inch netbook is available in a number of colors (blue, silver and red), is very thin and light and is also very well priced.

The Acer 532h is powered by the now common Intel Atom N450 1.6GHz processor, while this processor doesn’t offer any performance boots compared to the previous generation, it does use less power, resulting in longer run times and cooler operation.

So far the results of our tablet poll are indicating that most readers on this site would like to see tablets covered.

So where better that start than some news about two up coming tablets from Acer?

Reliable source Digitimes are reporting that we should expect to see two Acer tablets coming our way as soon as the fourth quarter this year.

The Acer Aspire One D260 (AOD260) is one of Acer’s latest 10.1-inch netbooks. While it builds on the previous AOD250, it has the same design as the Aspire One 521, but it keeps its Intel Atom hardware, rather than featuring AMD’s as in the 521.

The 10.1-inch netbook has a standard 1024 x 768 pixel resolution LCD, and is available in a number of different configurations all making use of the Intel Atom processor and GMA 3150 graphics.

The new 10-inch Acer Aspire One D255 netbook has just been revealed by reliable source Macles.

The Acer Aspire One AOD255 builds on the AOD260 (slightly confusing giving a higher spec’ed model a lower model number), by giving it the new Intel Atom N550 dual core processor.

The external of the Acer AOD255 is very similar to that of the AOD260, but it looses the chrome elements, and adds a number of extra color options.

On the outside the new 11.6-inch Acer Aspire Timeline X 1830T and Acer Aspire One 721 are pretty much identical to each other with the same chassis. But when you take a look at the price, the 1830T is between $599 and $699, while the Aspire One 721 costs only $430.

So why the price difference? The 1830T as reviewed here features the Intel ULCV processor and hardware, where as the One 721 makes use of the latest AMD hardware and CPU.

The very new to the market Acer Aspire One 721 and Aspire One 521 mini-notebooks / netbooks take a slightly different path than most devices currently on the market.

For starters they both use AMD hardware and ATI graphics, rather than the very common Intel hardware and Atom processors.

The Acer Aspire One 521 has a 10.1-inch LCD with a standard 1024 x 600 pixel resolution, while the Acer Aspire One 721 is the larger at 11.6-inches with a 1366 x 768 pixel resolution.

Just a few short days are Acer’s latest range of netbooks were made official, and the Acer Aspire One AO721 going on sale, the Aspire One D260 and 533 are now available for pre-order!

Both the Acer Aspire One AO533 and AOD260 are powered by Intel hardware, have a 10.1-inch LCD, look great, and are the latest generation netbooks to be made available by Acer.

Acer’s new and upcoming netbooks haven’t exactly been a secret and we have all the details posted on on the site for a while now. But today Acer have made their new netbooks range official in the US.

The four new netbooks can be split into two groups, the AMD powered netbooks (AO721 AO521), and the Intel powered netbooks (D260, D533).

The two new AMD netbooks are officially available to purchase from today, while the two Intel models will be available later this month.

During the recent influx of new netbooks announced at Computex this month Acer unveiled a number of new netbooks and computers to the market.

Along with the Aspire One 533, 521, and D260 there was also the 11.6-inch Acer Aspire One 753 which almost slipped past us.

The Acer Aspire One 753 (Acer AO753) was announced via a UK press release earlier this month.

Over the last week one of Acer’s latest netbooks, the Aspire One 721 has been officially announced and and shown up at Amazon.

The 11.6-inch impressive looking netbook is the AMD & ATI version of the Acer Aspire 1830T, which has traded in its Intel internals in favor of AMD’s.

It retains its impressive looking chassis and design, but how makes use of the more powerful AMD Athlon II Neo Processor K125 processor, and the powerful ATI Radeon HD 4225 graphics with 384 MB video memory.
