Description
Stay unplugged longer with the new ACER http://www.cheap-laptop-batteries.com/laptop-battery/acer-as09b56.htm 2900mAh Li-ion Battery. This 14.4V Li-ion/Lithium-ion battery can replace the original system battery or be used as a spare. ACER computer batteries life (and recharge times) will vary based on many factors including screen brightness, applications, features, power management, battery conditioning and other customer preferences.
Acer's new Aspire 3935 manages to fit a standard Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 3GB of RAM, and a decent 250GB hard drive into a slim chassis with a brushed metal finish . The trade-offs are the integrated graphics (the standard MacBook offers Nvidia's excellent GeForce 9400 GPU), a touch pad that's merely adequate, and a dearth of any kind of video output besides VGA.
The eye-catching Acer Aspire 3935 is only 1-inch thick, and the attractive bronze chassis has a brushed-metal overlay on the back of the lid. It's not as sturdy as the all-metal construction of the ($400-more-expensive) MacBook, but it generally felt solid and well-built, with a couple of exceptions. The plastic optical-drive tray wiggled and clicked under our fingers whenever we picked the system up, and we could occasionally hear the hard drive shutter and groan during even gentle handling.

A familiar-looking keyboard apes those found on Apple, Sony, and recent Dell laptops, with widely spaced, flat-topped keys. It's comfortable and easy to use, and includes full page-up and page-down keys, which we always find useful. The touch pad is usable but slightly cramped, and the mouse buttons require a firm click to register. The touchpad does, however, include a handful of multitouch gesture controls, including a photo-zooming pinch, and two-finger horizontal scrolling. We're fans of touch-pad gestures, but actually getting the gestures to register was hit-or-miss, and the small touch pad surface didn't give us a lot of room to work.
The 13.3-inch wide-screen LED display offers a 1,366x768 native resolution, which is standard for a 16:9 screen this size, and slightly higher than the usual 1,200x800 found on most non-16:9 13-inch laptops. The display was bright and easy to read, but also very glossy (ACER http://www.laptop-batteries.com.au/computer-battery/acer-um09e36.htm UM09E36 computer batteries), so be warned if stray light reflections bother you.
