t-break takes a look at the Acer Aspire S5 Ultrabook
n the past we have reviewed the Acer Timeline Ultra M5, which packs a lot of hardware for a chassis that’s slim, but it’s not slim enough to be a proper Ultrabook. In this field where the MacBook Air reigns supreme, Acer was actually one of the first Ultrabook manufacturers out of the gate last year, with their S3. While it was an ambitious machine, the S3 had some issues. Let’s see if Acer strikes lucky the second time with their high-end Aspire S5 ultrabook.
The most obvious thing about the Acer Aspire S5 is its truly slim magnesium alloy body. The 13-inch Ultrabook measures an impressively thin 11mm in profile and weight of just 1.2kgs.
The dark grey lid on top has a brushed metal finish, and when closed, the Aspire S5 looks remarkably minimalistic in style. Indeed there’s only a power button and a slim SD card reader on the left, while the right side has a 3.5mm audio jack. There’s nothing on the front as the Aspire S5’s profile slopes downward.
