Acer AO751h Review
Rating: 5.5/7
At 11.6″ and with high resolutions, the AO751h has a great screen. The brilliant keyboard and wide multi-touch pad is a nice change. Some models even have a 250GB Hard drive which is incredible for a netbook. However, the Acer Aspire One AO751h contains an Intel Atom Z520. This along with the fact that the A0751 comes with Windows Vista integrated makes it slower than most netbooks around.
It is definitely a nuisance for those who expect fast load times.

- Spacious keyboard
Drawbacks and things to keep in mind
- The glossy screen will make the AO751h difficult to use outdoors when there are strong lights around.
- Fairly expensive.
- The Z520 Processor makes the Acer Aspire One AO751h a slow Netbook.
- The glossy cover leave fingerprints.
Ratings
1. Price and Value for Money - 0.5 stars. The price tag may be slightly expensive for a Netbook which has a weak processor.
2. Speed and Performance – 0.5 stars.
3. Screen – 1 stars.
4. Keyboard and Usability – 1 star. A comfortable touch pad and keyboard which can be used for long periods of time
5. Portability and Battery Life – 1 star. The netbook is thin and light and also has a fantastic battery life.
6. Looks and Design – 0.5 star.
7. Connectivity & Extensibility – 1 star.
That gives the Acer Aspire One Netbook a fairly good 5.5 out of 7.
Acer AO751h – Our Recommendation
Overall, the Acer Aspire One AO751h is a standard Netbook. It contains everything most users will need to use to use the internet, to work and to keep in contact with friends and family. The brilliant screen and wide touch pad are impressive.
While it is easy to get netbooks more powerful than the AO751h, I recommend it to users who want a larger screen size and are patient enough to handle slow load times. It’s available on Amazon at $400.
