QUALITY PRODUCT
Acer has announced it has been named an International CES Innovations 2013 Design and Engineering Awards Honoree for its Aspire S7 Touch Ultrabooks. Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, engineers and members of the media to honor outstanding design and engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products across 29 product categories.
Hailed as one of the most exciting Windows 8-based touch Ultrabooks to debut this holiday season, Acer's S7 Ultrabooks are as thin as a
tablet and feature simple clean designs. With their all-aluminum unibody designs, they are exceptionally thin and light, yet resilient
and durable. Depending on model, they are as thin as .47 inches and weigh as little as 2.29 pounds and include 13.3-inch or 11.6-inch full
high-definition (1920 x 1080) touch screens that are protected by rigid lids made of white Gorilla Glass 2 or aluminum.
The S7-391 models include an elegant white design and a glossy white Gorilla Glass 2 cover that is smooth to the touch, beautiful to the
eye, thin yet super strong, scratch-resistant and easy-to-clean.
Optimizing its touch capabilities, its lid tilts back a full 180 degrees, allowing it to be used flat against a table or desk, much as one would use a tablet.
The smaller and lighter S7-191 model includes an 11.6-inch high definition touch screen, and features an all-aluminum unibody and aluminum cover with an elegant cross direction brushed finish.
Both models include a unique dual torque hinge design which enables the displays to stay upright and stable even when used for touch input and Acer's new innovative thermal design,
Sumit Agnihotry, VP of product marketing, Acer, said: "We appreciate being recognized for the high-level of engineering and design quality found in our S7 Series Ultrabooks, which were developed with premium construction methods and materials and cutting-edge manufacturing processes."
