This is a very powerful and also rather expensive offering but when you get a boot at six seconds and shutdown at two seconds this immediately tells you it will not be ‘cheap’ so what exactly does this latest offering from Porsche and marketed by Acer offer.

The Porsche Design Acer Book RS is a great laptop for people who command style with their substance, but its unique appearance and prestigious branding make it a poor investment for most.

As it stands, though, the Porsche Design Acer Book RS I7 doesn’t have a big enough engine to win the premium ultraportable race. It stands out with bold looks and a colour-accurate display but ultimately cannot match its competitors for sheer graphical horsepower – at this price, The Acer Book RS 17 needs less Cayenne and more 911.

While the Porsche Design Acer Book RS certainly looks unique and looks the part of a high-octane laptop, it sadly doesn’t have the performance that I was expecting. Judged as a regular Evo-certified Intel-powered ultra-portable, the Porsche Design Acer Book RS has enough performance under the hood to satisfy most people. But it’s not a regular ultraportable. Its performance doesn’t really do justice to the name attached to the lid, and you’re paying for a hefty premium to lug around a laptop with Porsche Design’s name attached on the front.

For better or worse, the Porsche Design Acer Book RS is a unique laptop. Of course, great performance, stellar endurance and a comfortable keyboard push it along. However, it costs a pretty penny for a not-so-pretty design. Plus, the display and speakers could certainly be better. Our advice? Save a few bucks and get the Yoga 9i. You’ll get a Core i7 CPU, double the RAM and a great speaker packed into a seamless 2-in-1 chassis. Or if design matters most, get the Spectre x360 14, which does luxury better than this Porsche. However, if you actually like the Porsche Design Acer Book RS’s design, it does have some positive aspects, especially its 13+ hour long battery life.

A surprise launch indeed, bringing some more standout - maybe outlandish, depending on your viewpoint - Porsche Design design language to Acer's laptop line-up. That 'RS' badge is warranted, too, given the specification on offer. But it sure isn't cheap.
