Construction & Design
First impression
The computer is black and the ‘skeleton’ made of plastic and aluminium. The design is fairly simple and very even on all sides. There are few details of note, making it rather neutral and classy. It seems less like a hunk of plastic compared to Acer’s earlier laptops and more of a quality product. The computer is a 15.6 incher, so it is a bit bigger than the other models we reviewed.
The lid
The lid is black with Acer’s logo in one corner.
The front
At the middle of the front we have an orange diode that lights up when the computer is running on AC.
Towards the right we have the card reader.
The rear
The rear of the computer is completely empty. The only thing of interest here is the battery.
