Acer Aspire S7 review: the gold standard for ultrabooks
Designed for Windows 8, the Acer Aspire S7 boasts a touchscreen and is sheathed in a super thin and sleek aluminum unibody chassis. Replete with a shockingly thin display, the 13.3-inch Acer Aspire S7 also benefits from tough, durable Gorilla 2 on the back. The interesting thing about this is...

Acer Aspire S7-391-9886
The Acer Aspire S7-391-9886 ($1,649.99 list) is one of the thinnest ultrabooks we've reviewed, especially given its touch screen. It comes with a quicker Core i7 processor than the run-of-the-mill ultrabook, and its SSD drives with RAID 0 striping make it a speed demon at multimedia tasks.
Cons:
- Mediocre battery life
- Limited ports, requires dongles for VGA and Ethernet
- Integrated graphics
- Persistent cooling fans in high performance mode.

The MacBook Air has been the leading premium 11-inch ultraportable for as long as we can remember, but the Acer Aspire S7-191 ($1,199) is here to knock Apple's portable off its pedestal. What does this Ultrabook bring to the table?
Pros:
- Slim and sleek 2.2-pound design
- Extended battery included
- Very fast SSD
- Blazing boot time
Cons:
- Poor endurance without extended battery
- Relatively dim display
- Limited keyboard travel

- Good overall performance
Cons:
- Poor battery life without extended battery
- Dim display backlighting
- Keyboard a little mushy
