Fast processor, Absurdly quick solid-state drives, Among the thinnest, lightest laptops available
Bland design, Annoying connectivity, Average display, Small battery, Massively overpriced
The Acer Aspire S5 is an odd duck. It is extremely thin and provides excellent performance in some areas. We're unaware of another Ultrabook that can match the Acer Aspire S5's hard-drive performance, and most Ultrabooks also will be dusted by its Core ...
In short, this ultrabook is one of if not THE thinnest notebook you’re ever going to want to own, and with a look and feel like this, you’ll have a great time picking one up. The pricing is a bit concerning when compared to other ultrabooks on the mar...
Very thin (thanks to a gimmicky motorized port cover) and very fast (thanks to Core i7 power and 256GB of solid-state storage), the Acer Aspire S5 is a gadget lover's ultrabook. Can you resist its $1,400 charms? Read More...

The Acer Aspire S5 is an incredibly thin and light ultrabook that hides its ports, including Thunderbolt, behind a clever motorized door
That port door, named the MagicFlip, is a potential problem if it ever breaks down. The keyboard isn't backlit, and battery life could be better

Relatively short battery life, Power button location, Screen viewing angles, Keyboard not backlit, Dual-SSD model not sold in Australia
Acer's Aspire S5 Ultrabook contains innovation and plenty of speed. The model we looked at was equipped with a Core i7 CPU and two solid state drives in a RAID 0 configuration. It's an ultraportable that's suitable for anyone who wants great overall perfo...

Great performance, World's slimmest laptop, Eye catching, Nice metal finish, Thunderbolt
Small SSD, Durability issues, Ports hard to access, Mediocre graphics, Average screen
The world's thinnest Ultrabook doesn't scrimp on power or usability, and this is a real play to the high end for Acer, a manufacturer that has often focused on mass-production for the low-cost end of the market. It's easy to fall in love with the Acer Asp...
