Review 1 for Acer 11.6" AO722-0022 Laptop PC with AMD Fusion C-60 Dual-Core Processor and Windows 7 Home Premium
Big computer internals in a small package!

This computer has a few items that make it a step up from very similar computers in its class. This computer packs a 500g hard drive when most have 320g. It has 4g of ram when other similar ones only have 2g, and sometimes only 1g. The processor speed is average compared to other models. Also noteworthy is the battery. Most other models only have the 3 cell, 3-4 hour life battery. This one comes with a 6 cell 7-8 hour battery standard. It does add a little to the thickness on the back edge, but it is designed in such a way that it tilts the computer/keyboard up which makes typing easier for me.
I came from an Acer D257 10" screen netbook to this one. The small screen never bothered me, but the extra 1.6" is REALLY nice, especially when the computer retains its small stature.
I removed the bloatware (which it does have a lot of) and installed VLC Player to replace Windows Media Player, which further trims unnecessary items and streamlines operations. The Windows 7 Home Edition is easy to navigate and is very customizable. I chose not to upgrade to Windows 8 because I prefer to use the included, free Starter version of Windows Office instead of paying for the service now, which is standard for all computer beginning with 8. Starter suits my Office Word needs just fine.
The small amount of extra cost of this model is worth it if you value a faster running computer with more memory capacity.
I've read some reviews that say the fan is loud and the computer gets very hot. I have not experienced either of those issues, even when it has been on for several hours. I find it to be quieter than most computers, including my previous one.

I needed just a simple computer for my home use. Everything was going well, I was pleased with the computer until I went to get on the internet. I was unable to watch basic you tube videos. Now some may say it was my connection, but it wasnt. I had the cable company come out and take a look at it. I packed it up and returned it.

I wanted a laptop under 12" but that could perform regular web browser and other application tasks on par with bigger laptops. This Acer is working so far. I have had it for two weeks, and like it very much. The size of the screen has taken some getting used to, but I believe the portability will make it very much worth it!

Excellent Compromise Between Notebook & Tablet

I bought this unit, or an AO0722 with essentially the same specifications, about a year ago. For an inexpensive computer, it has served my wife and I particularly well. While I do occasionally take it on the road, most of the time it is connected to our big screen TV. My wife and I canceled our Direct TV account in January 2012 and the Acer netbook allows us to watch TV network video on demand via the Internet; Direct TV treated us well, but we just got tired of paying for the privilege of spending almost a third of our time watching commercials. The netbook delivers 720p video and stereo sound to our big screen via the HDMI port. We use an inexpensive Microsoft 3500 wireless mouse to control the netbook from across the room.
The webcam and microphone are Skype compatible. The webcam was also the only one of my three that worked with my university's video conferencing network. Unlike a friend's Apple notebook, the microphone doesn't appear to pick up the audio from the speaker, thereby precluding the echo effect on some VOIP group calls. It's convenient not to have to use an earphone.
My installed OS is Windows 7 Home Premium. I recommend thinking long and hard before upgrading to Windows 8. I ran Windows 8 test drive on a virtual machine for about 6 months and never warmed to the new tablet oriented interface. From what I've read, big business and government users are also likely to skip Windows 8. Conversely, if you have a touch sensitive screen or a tablet powerful enough to run Windows 8, the new Microsoft operating system may be just what you've been waiting for. While I'm happy with my Android 4.0 Samsung tablet, I can see that the active tile approach offered by Windows 8 does make the Android and iOS icons seem a bit old school.
This is the second Acer product I've bought in recent years. The first was a relatively inexpensive Acer business quad-core tower. That machine, which came with a three year warranty, has been in daily use for over four years. Acer support was professional and readily available during the warranty period.

I originally bought a Samsung from Sams.com. That computer had a compact, flushed with computer battery, and this one does not. However, the Samsung's battery life was very bad. Supposed to be up to 6 hours, and I did not even get 3, even though I turned it off everytime.
I read great reviews about the Acer Aspire One, and ended up buying that from Walmart.com. This is all black, very nice - but I like the color and size of the Samsung better. The battery is raised from the back, and not flush with the computer, and this is about 1 inch bigger in width. The battery life is very good. I am sure I will get used to it, but I have no complaints about using it, or the battery life. Very nice, and well worth the money.

I have only had it a few days and used it a few times, but so far it is perfect for my needs. My friends and family helped me put skype on it & all seems to be working just fine. I will try to keep you posted in the future.

The keys take a little getting use to, they are a little spaced out. The screen jumps around a lot. You hit one button wrong and your entire paragraph will be deleted. However, I like the size and the weight. I'll keep it because I don't want to go through the trouble of packing it up and returning it.

This laptop is almost as great as I thought it would be, which is rare. It's a tiny bit slower than I expected, but not to bad. Do not pay 300 and something odd dollars for it!! I caught it on sale for 240!!! This laptop is great for anybody in school. The gaming is good on it to.

unfortunately we only looked at the good reviews before purchasing this.....ends up we should have looked at the one star reviews! it would not do netflix (although it is preloaded) would not function with itunes. tried to take off the MacAfee which some people recommended on line to improve its function, but the program could not be removed. tried even things our computer local computer repair shop recommended, but to no avail. fortunately Walmart has a good return policy.
DO NOT PURCHASE THIS COMPUTER !

Positives (as travel computer) - size, weight, keyboard, key board layout, screen clarity, battery life of about 5.5 hours of continuous use, wireless strength
Negatives - somewhat slow for simple internet surfing, keys do not have enough space between them because keys are too large (design flaw even though the space is sufficient), no obvious icon for how to use the computer,

Ideal for taking on trips

This is a great little computer if you recognize it's not the most powerful unit available. We bought it for checking email & Facebook in the dining room and for taking on trips. We added the Verizon Wireless MiFi card for internet and the DeLorme GPS antenna for navigation. It did come with the full version of Windows 7, which allows us to use all PC software including Office 2010. I was just afraid the Windows starter edition on most netbooks would be too limiting.
There are two cons which keep me from rating it excellent. 1. The touch pad is too touchy. We added a wireless mouse. 2. The screen is too reflective. We are still searching for a good non-glare screen cover. There used to be netbooks with non-glare screens, but they seem to have disappeared from the market.

This computer is almost a waste of money and I'm thinking of returning it. I spent the extra $ on the 4 GB RAM, thinking it would be faster and able to handle more MS Office programs being open than my old ASUS 9" with 1 GB RAM, but its no faster, programs still take longer than expected to load. Its a "good" computer, but not worth the extra $.

Pros - So far very happy with this netbook. Roomy 500 GB hard drive, battery lasts about 6 hours, great screen not too big not too small, light weight, full version version of windows 7.
Cons - no bluetooth; the pre-installed anti-virus seems to be causing the computer to repeatedly slow down, I will be uninstalling it as soon as free trial expires, the anti-virus also is constantly showing pop-ups urging you to upgrade to the full version of McAfee. The top cover of the netbook is a fingerprint magnet, you can either get used to the smudges or keep a soft cloth handy at all times. Also, the included free trial version of MS Office is very slow and annoying because it keeps trying to convince you to upgrade to the paid version. I just installed Libre Office for free and it works just as well as MS Office.
