Reviews for the Acer Aspire 5750-9851
Source: PC Mag Archive.org version
The Acer Aspire AS5750-9851 offers up a powerful Core i7 processor, Acer's own Clear.fi software, and a nice 15.6-inch screen, but that's about it. If features like WiDi 2.0, WiMAX, Blu-ray, and discrete graphics don't matter to you, then the Aspire AS5750-9851 is a good buy. However, for $145 more the Toshiba Satellite P775-S7215 can give you the first three features plus the same processor. For $180 less the Asus U56E-BBL5—the Editors' Choice for budget laptops—can give you WiDi 2.0, WiMAX 4G broadband, and better battery life, but you will be trading in that Core i7 for a Core i5—it all depends on what you value in a laptop.

Intel HD Graphics (Sandy Bridge): Processor graphics card which is integrated in the Sandy Bridge Pentium and Celeron processors. Similar to the desktop HD Graphics 2000 and not related to the old Arrandale processor graphics with the same name.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
