Armed with top-class components, this notebook offers excellent performance. Combined cool design and complete facilities, the notebook did seem tempting.
Material classy, touchpad double function, and good performance. That is part of efforts to make the Acer Aspire 5943G notebook to be different than the other. Understandably, the price of Rp.13, 5 million, 15.4-inch notebook of this size is one of the most expensive notebooks in the range of Acer notebooks.
But the price is offset by a series of advantages that we call in advance. In terms of material, for example, Acer uses aluminum material that surrounds the back and notebook keyboard size is 15.4 inches. The use of aluminum can be seen in contrast with a black plastic material that characterizes the area around the screen and armrest.
Keyboard his own use separate design measuring 15x15 mm with a wide distance between the keys. As a result, the process of typing feels very comfortable and natural. However, similar praise can not be addressed to the touchpad. The reason, the touchpad using glass materials. From the side it looks cool, but the touchpad is made from glass having two major problems: the movement feels sluggish and very easy to get dirty.
Initially we were puzzled why Acer's "reckless" use of glass materials for the touchpad. But then we found the answer, ie the touchpad has two functions. If you press a special button which is nearby, beneath a layer of glass touchpad will show the flame lights featuring touch keys for multimedia applications.
The menu is displayed includes Music, Video, and navigation buttons (like Play, Pause, and Mute). Pressing the Music and Video will run a special application called Acer Arcade Deluxe. It should be noted when the touchpad is turned into the multimedia menu, the function of the touchpad becomes inactive. Honestly we never feel the need for special multimedia keys, but this method is to bring a futuristic effect of this notebook.
Meanwhile, to boost performance, this notebook weighs 3 kg equipped upscale component to ensure all applications run smoothly. Just look at the processors that use Intel Core i7 740-QM (4 core, 1.73 GHz). For business graphics, this notebook is relying on ATI Radeon HD5650 (1GB). This combination makes the Acer Aspire 5943G is tough in many applications, such as you can see from the test results. Which is also fun, this notebook battery could reach 2 hours to play video and 4.5 hours to run the text.
But there is one thing that disrupt the use of this notebook, which is the heat generated. The combination of poor cooling system and the use of magnesium material make the keyboard area feels hot when it is fully loaded for a long time.
