Advantages: slim, light design, long battery life, separate numeric keypad, Disadvantages: Crashed daily until drivers updated, wifi button difficult to use,
This laptop was bought to replace a much more expensive Sony Vaio which had died of old age. I didn't want to spend as much as the Sony had cost but still wanted some key features. I wanted the new laptop to be - thin and light, big hard drive, lots of RAM, reliable (obviously). Also I'm a web developer and I travel a lot in my campervan and need to be able to work on the laptop so battery life was an important consideration.
The Acer 5810T seemed too good to be true and was originally ruled out when it didn't appear to have an optical drive - this is incorrect! The laptop DOES have a DVD/CD drive despite it's slim design and extended battery life.
Overall I'm really pleased with this laptop. It's really slim at one inch when closed and light at 1.6 kg, which is important as I haul it around a lot. The performance is good ...
Advantages: Light, good specs and value for money Disadvantages: keyboard flimsy and the charger messed up within a year
Excellent specifications for the price, compared to brands such as dell and sony. The Dvd burner runs a lot slower than the given speed. The wireless connection is excellent.
The laptop gets regualar use by me and my kids, who can be quite heavy handed with the keyboard. three of the keys have fallen out. Support at Acer couldn't be bothered to reply to my e-mails regarding replacement keyboard.
Acers website is annoyingly slow at times, i did manage to find all the necessary drivers when i had to reinstall windows. Don't try to install or even run live linux cd's as it will not for some reason recognise the Dvd/cd combi and therefore not run.
The screen is also excellent. It gives a clear and crisp image.
Battery life is also poor, i have found that it will not last longer than 3 hours while doing word processing ...
Advantages: very very good specs Disadvantages: a bit bulky
This laptop offers a lot
To start with however i would like to talk about the company, Acer has been going quite a long time now, but their customer service is only just satisfactory,
should this put you off buying it?
NO!
For around £80 you can get a 3 year warranty that is quite frankly supurb. I KNOW A FRIEND WHO HAS HAD HIS REPAIRED FROM SPILLS AND GENERAL LAPTOP DAMGE 6 TIMES!
now on to the laptop...
the 2 gigs of ram are deffinatly sufficient and help to increase the battry life to an acceptable 3 and a bit hours.
It has a good 25ogb hard drive to store lots of pages on and also a very good graphics card with 256mb of ram it will get you places with most games...
the size of th unit is also satisfactory, but is fairly bulky and heavy...
this is a great computer for mobile gaming or high end proccessing ...
