This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO722-0473 11.6-Inch HD Netbook (Espresso Black) (Personal Computers)
This 11.6" 1.0Ghz [1.33 turbo] netbook packs a punch for its size and low power consumption. The AMD C-60 mobile dual core processor runs well enough to play videos without skipping and efficiently enough to stay charged for as much as 7 hours. I opted for this model over the earlier 722-454 version for several reasons: its dual core processor, 2GB of RAM installed/ upgradable to 4GB, and 320GB hard drive.
If you're still not sold on a netbook over a tablet or standard laptop read on.
Tablets are still recreational devices, fun, chic in cafes, but they're still mostly for playing games and looking busier than you actually are. They have a few practical features, but all require a keyboard, which is an extra expense, and conveniently included with a netbook! If you do a lot of writing, typing, or work related proposals and editing, the DataViz optional word processor for Android tablets won't replace MS Office. It has limited functionality and frequently crashes... Read more

This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO722-0473 11.6-Inch HD Netbook (Espresso Black) (Personal Computers)
I recently started looking at Netbooks when I first saw a Toshiba NB505 in a local store and almost purchased it. Fortunately I decided to look into them a little more before buying one. Like all computers two of the most important components for me are the processor and the ram. The Acer Aspire One AO722 is one of the few netbooks offering a dual core processor, up-gradable memory and Windows 7 Home (not Starter).
After being scared off by reviews from other netbook products (including some from Acer) complaining about long boot up times, slow performance etc.. I decided to try this unit. So far it has exceeded my expectations in every way (keeping in mind that it is a netbook and not a mini-laptop). In fact several times I have found my wife favoring it over her newer HP laptop. Right out of the box (with 2GB of Ram) it was streaming Netflix video with no hesitation, skipping or jerking. I have since upgraded the Ram to 4 GB and it still performs super. As for speed it...

This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO722-0473 11.6-Inch HD Netbook (Espresso Black) (Personal Computers)
I was very happy with my 10.1" Asus 1001P-PU17 but I cracked the screen while on vacation and need a replacement fast. While browsing Amazon I noticed this Acer was a bigger screen, more RAM and a bigger HD (320GB vs 250GB Asus) another big plus was Windows 7 Home Premium instead of Windows starter for just a few dollars more than the Asus sell for. I am extremely happy with it so far. It is actually lighter and thinner than the Asus and the battery life is about 6hrs (which is less than the Asus so that is the one compromise I made). The screen is very crisp and Netflix looks really clear. Highly recommended and this time I bought accidental protection for $25 through Safeware. The only negative is the glossy case - I would have much preferred something textured that does not show smudges.

REVIEW: I was looking for an 11"-13" small laptop or netbook that could web surf, blog, and run MS Office. I also wanted to be able to handle basic, on-the-fly photo editing & design using Adobe CS5. Lastly, I needed something that could run for at least 6 hours on battery and had a full-size keyboard. Going with the Acer Aspire One 722 was a good choice price wise and provided a power efficient option that met my needs while on the road. Hopefully, you find this review helpful.
After testing it without any upgrades for a week, it was way faster than... Read more

This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO722-BZ454 11.6-Inch HD Netbook (Espresso Black) (Personal Computers)
I've had this netbook about a month now. I spent a couple of weeks looking up different netbooks to do basic stuff like handle Adobe Flash on the web, type a paper, but most importantly, have HDMI output to play 1080p videos. My budget was in the $300 range and this was the perfect choice after taking everything into consideration.
The netbook itself is very thin and light and has a good keyboard that is a little bigger than your typical one on a 10" netbook. It has a 250GB HDD, standard webcam, mic, and card reader. Another thing I should mention is that it has two speakers on the bottom (left & right) and is louder than other Acer netbooks I've had that only have one speaker.
I wiped the HDD when I got it and installed Win7 Ultimate x64. I liked that it came with 2GB RAM as most netbooks in this price range only come with 1GB, but even then, this netbook runs even better when you upgrade to 4GB RAM. The CPU may run at 1GHz, but don't be fooled as it... Read more

This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO722-BZ454 11.6-Inch HD Netbook (Espresso Black) (Personal Computers)
I bought this from another website, but I wanted to leave a comment on here specially since the netbook seems to be getting hammered on here for reason that make no sense.
1) Cosmetic: The appearance is actually kind of nice. The ripple effect on the case is actually quite attractive, all my friends who have seen it(I have the espresso black) really thought it was interesting to look at versus the standard flat black cover most netbooks have. My only issue is the slick shiny plastic they use is somewhat of a finger print magnet, but nothing a simply cloth wiped crossed once or twice wont fix. It is also extremely light and easy to carry will fit in most backpacks and slingbags with ease.
2.) Functionality: It comes with Windows 7 64bit so pretty much it is a fully functional little laptop, it will run just about any movie or YouTube out there, currently I have been watching HBOGO and other movies on it. I cannot speak of it for gaming even though it is... Read more
