Acer has gradually established itself as a kind of low end competitor on the market and obviously that is where they want to be. Maybe Acer is not going for ultimate quality but they are compensating in quantity instead. Following their own footsteps they pushed out their V3 series, which incorporates high end hardware with a minimal pricing.

The Acer Aspire V3-571G-9435 is joining its competition on the top level, offering the maximum for a minimum fee. It is a 15 inch laptop, which when not touched looks like a black glossy marble, but every fingerprint counts. Its front panel is really glossy, with the Acer logo on the back side. The insides are better. The screen is a glossy LG WLED screen, with max resolution of 1366×768 pixels and solid color and backlight. The keyboard is a pretty nice chiclet keyboard, with a great spacing and good keys. The insides are made from mate plastic, which is fingerprint proof.

This laptop has its downs, but it also brings a great punch. This is because of its impressive hardware and when you compare the hardware with the price it makes a great combo. It has an Ivy Bridge i7-3610QM processor based on HM77 chipset. Except for the integrated Intel HD 4000 graphics processor it comes packed with a GeForce 640M discrete GPU with 2GB DDR3 and this combo runs in (Optimus) technology, which switches between the cards according to the need.  It comes with 6GB DDR3-1333 RAM and 500GB SATA hard drive that runs on 5200RPM which according to us is a bad choice and is the slowest thing on the laptop.

It comes with a great support of all the necessary connection types, even surpassing some of the competitors. It has a dual-band 300MbWi-Fi that works with g/n standards, a Bluetooth 4.0 and a Gigabit Ethernet connection. It has a single USB 3.0 port, two USB 2.0, HDMI and Headphone and Microphone jacks.

This is a good laptop, with great inside hardware and some flaws on the outside, but the price of something lower than $800, makes it a great cheap buy.
