Expert's Rating
Pros
- Low base price covers many appealing features
- Very good design and feature set
Cons
- Not very powerful for an ultraportable
- Battery life is lower than a typical netbook’s
Our Verdict
Excellent design and features compensate for lackluster performance in a cool little laptop that will have netbook buyers considering something just a little bit bigger.
The Acer Ferrari One is an unusual device because it’s either a large and relatively high-powered netbook, or an inexpensive but small and slightly low-powered ultraportable. With an affordable price point of around $600, Senior Editor Jason Cross takes a look and determines who might be the perfect owner of this machine.
