Battery Life & Price not work getting
I got this laptop after 6 months or more in research and after trying it out for a few days, I would have to say, the price is not worth the laptop. Its a nice laptop but the battery barely lasts 3 hours; that's with very light running.

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 above £1,000.
Pros:
- 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...
Cons:
- 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...

The included bluetooth mouse could not connect to the laptop, and it unfortunately comes with Windows 8. Other than that, this is a very nice ultrabook.

Acer Aspire S7 review Review
The Aspire S7 combines a super-slim, attractive design with a good touchscreen to help get the best out of Windows 8. Its Core i7 processor provides a decent performance, but it's not the powerhouse you'd hope it would be for the price.
Pros:
- Extremely slim
- Attractive white design
- Touchscreen for Windows 8
- Full HD display
- Capacious hard drive
Cons:
- Expensive
- Not fantastic performance for the money
- Trackpad isn't very responsive

Acer Aspire S7 Review
The S7 is kitted with the aforementioned Core i7, 4GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage configured in RAID 0. This potent combination is supplemented by the slightly-better-than-expected Intel integrated graphics 4000.
Pros:
- Near-perfect build quality
- strong aesthetics and powerful internals
Cons:
- A near-broken trackpad and wimpy battery life

Acer Aspire S7-191
The Acer Aspire S7-191 is an 11-inch Windows 8 Ultrabook laptop that features a 1080p touch screen display, a speedy solid-state drive, a very sleek design and an extended battery. The display is a little dim for our tastes and the battery life without the extended battery is sub-par.
Pros:
- Attractive
- thin aluminum design
- Fast boot-up times
- Extended battery included
- Good overall performance
Cons:
- Poor battery life without extended battery
- Dim display backlighting
- Keyboard a little mushy

Acer Aspire S7-191
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

Review: Acer S7
When Intel first launched its Ultrabook branding last year it was met with a handful of different models from the major PC manufacturers. In the wake of Windows 8 we are going to see this trickle turn into a flood, as the number and diversity of Ultrabook designs swells with features designed to...

Impressive ultrabook, nearly perfect
I've been waiting for a thin, light windows subnotebook that was powerful enough to run modern software. My needs were: small footprint, light weight, >WXGA+ screen, intel core processor, backlit keyboard, USB 3.0.

A gorgeous piece of technology, performs well, but you're paying a serious premium for the design and build. Acer's Aspire S7 is a visually stunning Windows 8 Ultrabook.
