Acer's Aspire TimelineX AS3830T-6417 continues the companies trend of affordable ultraportable laptops. With street pricing of around $600, it is one of the least expensive 13-inch models on the market. It isn't going to be as thin as the ultrathin laptops but it does offer a solid mix of features to make it a solid primary computer for someone looking at a compact system.

The Acer Aspire TimelineX AS3830T-6417 is a very good laptop for the average user who wants a fast portable with the latest technologies. We found it a little bit heavy for an “ultra thin” model, but users who are used to carrying a brick in their backpacks will certainly think the weight of this new model is fair.

13.3": This is a common display format for subnotebooks. Netbooks, UMPC and some subnotebooks have tinier displays. Nevertheless, the majority of standard laptops has a higher format.

The disadvantage is that the reading of texts is a bit exhausting for the eyes, especially with high resolutions.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
1.8 kg: These sub-notebooks weight less than the average of all notebooks, but represent a heavier class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 12 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
