The V3 Series by Acer

The V3 Series by Acer:
This is the Taiwan based computer maker Acer’s entry into the ultrabook market, but according to the specs and features, this is not really an ultrabook at all! Sure, it is slimmer than other similar Acer laptops, but that is about it for now at least.

Basically what we have here are three versions of the V3, all virtually identical apart from the size of the display, they will offer the latest processors from Intel, graphics cards by Nvidia and some serious speakers too. However, this is a new launch and the precise specifications are a little limited at the moment.
Therefore, here is what we do know, the new V3 series comes in a 14 inch, 15.6 inch and 17.3 inch, with the later coming with the Acer Cine Crystal HD+ LED backlit display with a 1600 x 900 of pixel resolutions and the Acer Crystal Eye HD web camera built in.

They are going to be powered by the latest generation of the Intel Core Sandy Bridge family processors and with video coming from the NVIDA GeForce GT Series graphic cards. These are entertainment laptops and as such come with the Dolby Home Theater v4 sound system, a Blu-ray Disc drive and the all important HDMI out for connecting to a larger screen.
When it comes to networking and connectivity there is the Acer InviLink Nplify Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet, Acer clear.fi 2.0 for home networking, a multi-in-1 card slot, Bluetooth 4.0 and a choice of USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports with the handy USB power-off charging to choose from.

The outside has a nice glossy finish and the V3 series comes in a choice of colour too, such as; Midnight Black, Dawn Gold, Nightfall Gray and Thunderbolt Silver.
The V3 is expected to find its way onto the market around the summer time and will have a starting price of around $500.
