Las Vegas – Acer today introduced its latest Ultrabook, the
Aspire S5.
Acer was a little thin on the S5’s specifications at a press
event held just prior to the start of International CES, here. The device will
ship during the second quarter; pricing was not announced.
The S5 is has a 13.3-inch display, weighs less than 3 pounds and
is just more than half an inch thick.
The S5 will be powered by an Intel Core i series processor,
feature a solid-state drive for storage, and have a Thunderbolt port, HDMI,
USB 3.0 and Acer’s Green Instant On for 1.5-second boot-from-sleep technology.
The ports are contained in what Acer calls its Magical I/O port panel, which is
located just below the Ultrabook’s hinge.
The S5 also includes Dolby Home Theater v4.
