The Aspire One is an 8.9" laptop with an Intel Atom N270 C.P.U. and GMA950 integrated graphics and 6cell acer laptop Battery just like every other netbook out there. With identical hardware, you would assume to get roughly the same performance out of it, Acer Travelmate 4230 Battery and you would assume correctly.
Features
There is still a standard of variation between different netbooks and brands, most notably the appearance, but quality aspects are naturally also important, as well as connectivity, hard drive,Laptop Batteries, RAM and Acer Aspire 4730 Battery size.
Regarding the last item in the list, we managed to find the desired and elusive model with the 6-cell battery, which offered 5 hours and 40 minutes of battery life with wireless on and backlight set to 75%. It wouldn't be unreasonable to assume that the 3-cell, which is more common, would yield about half of that Acer Aspire 2014 Battery .
Big for a Netbook
Of course, getting the larger battery also means dedicating some portability. The Aspire One is actually a bit large already (as far as netbooks go), and the 6-cell battery increases the weight to roughly 2.5 pounds. Another minor annoyance with the Acer is the relatively wide and thick bezel that makes it even slightly larger than some 10-inch netbooks.
That annoyingly large LCD bezel is unluckily not the only disappointment as far as the Acer Aspire 3020 Series Battery screen is concerned. Its viewing angles are also very poor - colors start shifting as soon as you're not exactly in front of the screen.
Bottom Line
You also get varying amounts of RAM and hard drive (or SSD) space relying on which Acer Aspire 5600 Series Battery version you get. The Aspire One is available with whatever flash memory-based Solid State Drives in smaller sizes and regular notebook hard drives. Our review model had 1GB of RAM and a 160GB hard drive - both quite generous for a netbook. In most aspects, you actually get a lot of "bang for the buck" with the Aspire One.
On the whole it's a reasonably well-rounded netbook that - like most netbooks - Acer BTP90BM Battery offer few surprises. Thinking what you have to pay for it, it's hard not to recommend this netbook in spite of a few flaws.
