Often criticized for the lack of comfort due to their small size, the netbooks are also declined to 11.6 inch format as this Acer Aspire One 722. A netbook in the size of a small ultraportable that has a screen with 1366 x 768 pixels, which is far more comfortable than the poor 1024 x 600 dots usual found on netbooks 10 inches.
AMD inside
Basic technical side, Acer uses the recipe of his little brother, the Aspire 522 that we tested, namely an AMD Fusion all-in-One (APU), the C-50 clocked at 1 GHz. A more powerful chip that combines Intel Atom central processing unit (CPU) and graphics chip (GPU). Outperforms Intel's Atom, the chip offers pretty good performance for office use and provides the power needed to decode HD videos (720p and 1080p). Next game, no miracles, he will settle for old titles and levels of detail limited.
Standard Equipment
If the integrated graphics chip can benefit from an HDMI output, the rest of the technical details of this netbook is basic - Wi-Fi, webcam, three USB ports, VGA, Ethernet, etc.. - Although there is some unknown date (1 or 2 GB of RAM, 160 or 250 GB hard drive, three or six cell battery). No revolution, the price of the machine tight leaving little room for the introduction of new technologies.
Available in June
On model 522, the keyboard quality and autonomy were weak points. He will hope that Acer has made some efforts on finishing Acer and France decided to distribute a version of six cells. It remains to be seen whether such a battery can fit into the small price of 299 euros. The Aspire One 722 is available in black, blue and red during June 2011.
