Acer Aspire One 722-BZ480 Review

Netbooks may have lost much of their momentum as Apple iPad tablet 2 TouchPad and HP, but basically, they are still superior hardware. So if you need a lightweight notebook, the Acer Aspire One 722-BZ480 can be a good way to go. It is equipped with an AMD dual-core C-50 Accelerated Processing Unit (APU), which gives a fair (if not remarkable), the dose of computing power for the price, and better graphics to play the most games, not 3D intense black. The Aspire One has little else to offer in terms of features, but because of its price $ 329.99 (List Costco), it is not too bad a compromise.

Design

The Aspire One 722-BZ480 has a frame espresso black plastic with a glossy cover that sport also has a dynamic design practice. The system measures an inch thick and weighs 2.95 pounds. Places it on the lighter side 11-inch netbooks: HP Pavilion dm1z ($ 449 direct, 4.5 stars) and weighs 3.4 pounds, the Lenovo ThinkPad X120e ($ 580 direct, 4 stars) weighs 3.3 kilos .

With a 11.6-inch screen that displays in 1366 by 768, the 722-BZ480 able to play 720p HD video. You can use the HDMI port to connect your computer to your HDTV, but your content will be limited to digital downloads and streaming, as there is no optical drive. At least 5400 rpm 320GB hard drive should be able to contain a good amount of media. If you want more capacity, a little netbook has 500GB, but when theSony VAIO PCV-YB15KX / S ($ 599.99 list, 4 stars) shows that they also have higher prices.

The keyboard is a size in the style chiclet, I noticed a certain curve on it as I write. If you are looking for a better typing experience, the keys have a ThinkPad X120e Comfort Curve. The touchpad provides smooth navigation, but I found the mouse button only to be steep.

Performance

Because of its modest components, dual-core 1 GHz and 2 GB DDR3 APU RAM-722-BZ480 has been only a fair performer in productivity tasks. 7 In our PCMark overall system test Aspire One 722 scored 775, 162 points lower than we saw 
on the Lenovo IdeaPad S205 ($ 579.99 direct, 3.5 stars), which has a more powerful AMD APU and more memory. We saw similar results on our Cinebench test score R11.5 with Acer S205 0.36 and IdeaPad manage a significantly higher 0.63.

The 722-BZ480 APU is used GeForce 6250M is better suited for viewing Flash videos that play 3D games. The system is unplayable frame rates in both Crysis (11 frames per second, or fps) and Lost Planet 2 (8.5fps) with medium quality settings. However, you can play games such as low-end torchlight, higher settings than you can normally a netbook with Intel Atom. But there is still a better choice: HP Pavilion dm1z using an APU with powerful GeForce 6310M graphics and still costs less than $ 450, showed a 3DMark score of 06 points above the 2403-656-722 BZ480 is 1747.

Aspire One 722-BZ480 six-cell 40Wh battery lasted 7 hours 17 minutes on our MobileMark 2007 battery test summary. It is a better spectacle than the Lenovo ThinkPad X120e is 6:30 time, but not as long as 8:40, we saw with the HP Mini 5103 (650 million street 4 stars) or 7:53 the Sony Vaio PCV-YB15KX / S.

Acer Aspire One 722-BZ480 is a solid laptop for PC users who travel on a tight budget. Its price of $ 329 is convincing, AMD and APU will facilitate the work of online media. If you have another $ 250 to spend and you want more processing power and graphics power, you might consider instead IdeaPad S205, its high level APU delivers more punch in both areas. For a more digestible $ 120 difference, give yourself dm1z parts even faster for the price, more than 1 GB of RAM, a better typing experience, and a faster 7200 rpm hard drive.
