Acer Spin 1 Review | Trusted Reviews

Acer Spin 1 review: Small and cheap, but with a decent screen and battery life – this laptop is potentially ideal for backpackers.

Very low price ; Good-quality screen ; Attractive design and light weight

Modest performance ; Super-slow hard drive ; Poor keyboard

Acer Spin 1

The Acer Spin 1 is a budget convertible laptop with folding screen that can be had for just £250. It's the entry-level option in the company's Spin range, coming in below the Spin 7, Spin 5 and Spin 3.

Acer Spin 1 review

Premium features at a budget price

Full HD display comes as standard ; All metal chassis ; Microsoft Precision Touchpad

Only Celeron or Pentium processor options ; Large bezels

The Acer Spin 1 might be priced like a budget laptop, but it hardly feels like one with an all metal build and Full HD screen. It’s just a shame it doesn’t pack more power.

Acer Spin 1 review

(Rating Hidden)

Budget laptops with 11-inch screens are nothing new, but the Acer Spin 1 is said to 'twist your preconceptions'. We think it's referring to that fact you can rotate the touchscreen to use it as a tablet. We've seen cheap laptops in the past that have...

Acer Spin 1 (SP111-32N-C2X3)

With its wealth of features and super-budget price, the 11.6-inch Acer Spin 1 is an excellent-value 2-in-1 convertible.

Great 1080p touch display. Long battery life. Nice fit and finish. Very usable keyboard and touchpad. Plenty of ports. Active stylus included.

Heavy for its size. Ho-hum VGA webcam. Scanty storage. Performance can be sluggish.

Bottom Line: With its wealth of features and super-budget price, the 11.6-inch Acer Spin 1 is an excellent-value 2-in-1 convertible.

Acer Spin 1 Review: Portable Windows convertible with best-in-class display

We tested the Acer Spin 1 and it works as a good Windows 10 machine for everyday tasks. It is powered by an Intel Pentium CPU and has 4GB of RAM. It is priced at Rs. 32,922 in the Indian market.

Appealing design ; Compact and easy to carry ; Crisp and vibrant full HD touch display ; Keypad offers comfortable typing experience

Not a heavy duty machine ; Thick bezels spoils the look

Acer Spin 1 Review

The Acer Spin 1 an all rounder, as it offers reliable battery life, a 1080p display with touch capabilities, and comes with MS Office pre-installed.

1080p touch screen display ; Dependable battery life ; Affordable

Build quality could have been better

The Acer Spin 1 has a combination of features that you might not get in any other laptop in the same price range. It compromises on performance and overall build quality, delivers with an impressive screen and MS Office pre-installed. It’s a laptop...

Consumer review (argos.co.uk)

What it makes up for looks, it loses in function

When I first opened it, I thought it was so cute. But then it took four hours to start up. After that the mouse would lag randomly whenever I used it for longer than half an hour. Sometimes applications would just freeze and 'stop responding' and one...
