Reviews for the Acer Aspire 5652WLMi

80% A fast notebook with high-speed mobile internet, but not ideally suited to those on the move

Acer's latest notebook combines a sturdy chassis, reasonably powerful Core Duo T2300 processor and Vodafone's new HSDPA broadband module for high-speed internet access on the move. Just as with the Dell Latitude 420 (review coming soon), this Acer comes with a built-in Vodafone 3G broadband module. Located inside the battery compartment, this module provides access to Vodafone's HSDPA network and achieve internet speeds of up to 1.8Mbits/sec.

The notebook market has become sort of stale lately, as manufacturers fight over price points rather than exciting new concepts, so it’s nice to see a new idea once in awhile. Sometimes, being the first to market with an idea can be daunting, users will like the notion but not the implementation. In the case of the Aspire 5652WLMi, Acer hasn’t made a great leap forward in technology, simply in execution. If it had been a little lighter we’d have made it a Hot Product but as it stands: it’s a great machine that runs well and the addition of 3G is a clincher, especially at the asking price.

Dell was the first to offer a 3G-ready notebook with its Latitude D620 but, along with Fujitsu Siemens, Acer is among the first to ship a notebook with 3G integrated as standard. The SIM card sits in a slot underneath the battery, and in this case it's supplied in partnership with Vodafone. There are three tariffs to choose from: the most basic gives 250MB of data for £25 a month, with each extra megabyte costing £1. The Data Unlimited tariff costs £45 a month with a fair-use policy of 1GB, while the Data Travel tariff (£95) still has the 1GB cap, but gives you 100MB of free downloads when you're abroad, and cheaper rates thereafter when roaming. A fantastic specification partnered with comprehensive features, integrated 3G and a bargain price.

Comment

NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600: The NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 is a middle class video card of the 7000 series and suited for games of the year 2006. The performance is very similar to ATI X1600 / X1700. Compared to the desktop 7600 it is clearly slower.

Lower end of Graphics Cards for users who want to play games. New games should run on these cards, but only with decreased details and mediocre resolution.

Intel Core Duo: Double Core processor with a very good relation of performance to current consumption. The 2 MB L2 Cache are used together by the double. The maximum capacity of 31 watts is only 4 watts more than with the Pentium M (predecessor). Both cores are lowered automatically and independently of each other by speed steps down to 1 GHz. In addition it now supports also SSE3 instructions. At least it is just as fast as a equivalent Pentium M. With applications, which were designed for multi-processors, the performance can be nearly twice as fast as with the Pentium M (e.g. CineBench around 86% fast)

15.4": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks.  15.4 inch display with 16:10 are the standard for notebook displays.
The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much current and the laptops can be kept quite compact.
>> To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.

3 kg: This weight is average for notebooks. Therefore the numerous mass of laptops with 15 inch display fits in this class of weight.

Acer: Acer is one of the international manufacturers with the most market shares worldwide and the most reviewed notebook models in the German and English speaking countries. Nevertheless only few of the models achieved top rankings according total ranking and price/value evaluation.
