[Whitetail9hunter7]

I used to have a girl voice like you, but I took an arrow to the knee

[0711juliocesar]

sem cd rom e não roda jogos ! fiquem atentos

[mikaylaaaaamay]

@omnitechnews i have one of these laptops, and i cant find out how to open my laptops webcam, if you could help me in any way it would help, thanks!

[WatchmenDrManhattan]

So lets be honest the only grate thing about this is that it has a touche screen as a keyboard other wise this would be a a pretty crappy laptop

[iyadart]

lol I am only 28 but watching this kid telling you about the latest technology makes you feel so freakin old...

[SweRaider1993]

Will it upgrade to windows 8 with Acer's features too?

[upiluften]

I'll pass.. It'll look wierd unless the bottom screen recreates blacks perfectly. Like Amoled.

[FireSqy]

First I was "What 10 years old kid o.O" But when real review begins I was "Hmm... He knows his things :D" So age isnt everything :D

[niyazmather]

one advantage is that you can use this in the dark.because the keyboard is illuminated.

[niyazmather]

go kiddo, go....

awesome job you've done

[AzkillerBeast2012]

How much was this an is it in the us yet?? Plz get back ta me

[Fakkelbrigade1990]

I could maybe become in handy when you make music. like running cubase and do some other things at the same time when your not at home otherwise you dual screen lol

[codzombiesrftw]

How the fuck did the kid get this?

[Claudioman2009]

@codzombiesrftw son or brother of someone.. tipical

[DARKZERO216psn]

@codzombiesrftw lol that's what i wanna know

[ztolkanek09]

be nice to the kid, he interviewed notch..

[NagisaChobit]

Good review! Well done.

[NeDolM]

very good review !

[ninjarider2006636]

What a freakin wiz kid! He's more tech than most computer buddies I know! This guy has a promising career in technology! A+ buddy!

[fagerbag]

Honestly this is the first kid on YouTube that actually made a good video, I swear all the other kids mess up when talking most of the time and often don't even know what they are talking about, but this guy actually showed us the WEI score and the resolution, and several other things, that are useful, oh yea, Also, nice intro.

[dan198660120]

This will be a good laptop for when Microsoft releases Surface.

[dan198660120]

I like how easy it is to access the bottom

[endurancecurves16]

I dont know if Id really like that



[luev25]

I find this hard to masturbate to...

[AVoverdrive]

this kids voice i swear...

[DavidBoy333]

I wonder if this product has not been officially released in my place, then how can i order it???

[iToasterman]

@OmniTechNews you don't need high res, im using dual 1024x768 and ur a little younge for youtube :p

[thedest1ny]

yeaahh im gonna pay 3000$ laptop jus for watching youtube and checking my mail

fuckkk yeaahhhh :D

[d5tone2]

@thedest1ny it only cost $1,018.81

[experimental0000]

not revolutionary in laptop design and a large waste of R&D from Acer. Hey Acer how about actually putting better hardware in your systems instead of making flashy crap? I mean would it kill you to give systems ATI or Nvidia chipsets?

[WackoJackoLmfao]

Id rather get an ipad :)

[gemyang]

how good is it at taking handwritten notes on the bottom screen while reading pdf on the top? can you pls try using a stylus on the bottom and inform?

[heanly1]

there is no cd-rom so how do you install games that comes in with a cd?

[thinkbigize]

I;m confused... why is some kid trying to review a laptop?

[k1skaaa]

@thinkbigize

Because he wanted to?  How is it confusing you, honestly.. This kid seems to have the knowledge to do so, so he should do it like he wants.

[MolnetCloud]

I have seen several reviews of this computer and the question remains, does it have bluetooth or not? Some reviews says no and some(like this one) says yes..

[MrTigger280]

640gb hard drive not 320

[minakelliny]

I own an Alienware M17x R2, but it has horrible battery life. and I would like a laptop that I could take around check emails and surf the web.

[Alpha2261]

when you make a custom gesture, can you use multiple fingers? or just one

[redblaze369]

Why would you pay $1,201.46 to and i quote 'surf the web, check your emails and do simple tasks'? I could pay the same amount of money and get a high spec alien ware to do all that and game?

[MolnetCloud]

@redblaze369 You dont get any decent alienware for that price.. ;)

[theonethatsurvived]

How...Old is this kid? Not bagging on him, but he hasn't even hit puberty and he's talking like some buisness-man.

[waves36012]

@theonethatsurvived i know

[Mr5a5uk]

finally! i can type without the noise of pressing keys :-) lol

[jt21boys]

job*

[jt21boys]

are you a payed reviewer and how did you get this or get started

[connor9050]

when you mean hardcore gameing does that mean i cant play minecraft on it?please reply

[Alpha2261]

@connor9050 minecraft isn't a hard core game. It's a java game so it should be fine. Don't quote me on it but it shouldn't be bad. He's talking about games like Crysis and other graphic intensive games.

[connor9050]

@Alpha2261 ohh cool thanks mate

[HolySagar]

Hi, yeah quick question. Is the computer okay for like a casual gaming? like World of warcraft or something? love the review :D

[ipown109]

@HolySagar WoW is not casual gaming

[DH1Studios]

are you a partner?

[xPyleDriver]

Looks like a piece of shit

[JamuZ1234]

can you drag program like Exel and Word to 2 screen each?

[jemedreeya]

its an obvious dual screen and pretty sure this will eat much battery power.

[kazper333]

Sorry but I have to put thumbs down on this one, first because having two touchscreen will consume the battery so bad its almost unusable, 2nd no1 like touchscreen keyboards on a real computer, since its just horrible to type and its unnatural to type on it maybe if they integrate swype then mayb but for now its bad and final even though the concept sounds cool its really not, speakers are too low, Kyocera Echo has this idea but on a phone which sounds better so sorry but this is just an Fail.

[bstubbsgolf31]

would this laptop be right to use when doing graphic design as it looks quite creative and easy to use?

[prettyboy1970]

Excellent review, young man!

[Phoenixis]

It just seems creepy when a kid says "its very responsive to my touches"...

Please get an adult to do reviews...

[RichColours]

@omnitechnews Is this a review unit?

[MrRedsn0w]

man you look like you are 7

[SeivomProductions]

Amazing! Now i can watch porn,

while watching porn!!!

[roffpoff]

@SeivomProductions I just got a brain overload !!!!

[Aaron16]

I don't get the point of it, unless one of the screens works as a wacom, I think it's pointless.

[cateye27]

That is one awesome computer. The keyboard seems like it would take some serious getting used- to.

[krewkid09]

lol. its a huge nintendo ds! except theres a windows operating system.

[madness3482]

is now available for pre-sale in the US and Canada, at a price of $1200

[RyGuy5320]

They make these awesome dual-screen laptops.. Now all they need to do is not make everything glossy!!!! 90s laptops still have a hold over modern ones for that reason.

[IridiumVIII]

Nice review

[Technoguy3]

Good concept, poor execution =(.

[iMhike]

its a courier

[rwmtiger]

Acer is really good for cheap price. for slow CPU. it seem work fast

[carlossantoso]

What about battery life ?

[bstubbsgolf31]

@carlossantoso about 2 and a half to three hours because it's powering the two dual screens, but still pretty poor.

[TkMToM1993]

Acer stole my idea..

[catchatyou]

"You can even put your hands on the palmrest..."

-Yeah, if you want carpal tunnel syndrome.

[tingokuman]

@catchatyou this is a touch screen netbook you probably wouldnt want to write a novel on this.

[tkell97]

No one cares about Windows Experience Index... But still nice review and nice laptop!

[l0gically]

There some interesting aspects to the design. But five fingers for the touch ring (vs any number of other more viable options) seems a bit capricious.

[TheFilmMaster]

Amazing product. I never knew you get this sort of technology today!!

[humxa24]

@BrokenKeys2010 yes

[micgamer16]

cool review

it seems like a pretty good idea from acer but the question is how many people are likely t buy a computer that could seem pretty fragile it looks like it has good build quality and is a rather nice machine but what happens if you drop it since it is bound to happen to a laptop at some point in its life.

anyway great review keep up the good work

[thetechzonelive]

Acer sent this for review?

[KaffCast]

Great review! I'm not sure I'd be able to get rid of my keyboard yet, I sometimes find it difficult to type on my iPad..Pretty cool idea though. And again, great in-depth review.

[gmcnewlook]

its kinda cool, but if one were getting a full laptop using a touch screen on the bottom to type is dumb, its like people who buy an ipad and get a keyboard... whats the point?

[proreview3153]

It's an interesting idea but the second screen really is not amazing...and i dont no about overclocking a laptop

[MrDevour]

I honestly think this was a waste of money(Not making the review, the making of the laptop.) Either way, great review Robert.
