Acer Aspire One 722-BZ608
The Acer Aspire One 722-BZ608 is a budget-priced 11-inch laptop that's more powerful than a Netbook, but not as fast as some higher-priced 11-inch alternatives. Better options are out there for a little more money.

CNET Review
The Good: The Acer Aspire One 722-BZ608 is affordable for an 11-inch ultraportable, and can stream video better than an Atom Netbook. It also comes with plenty of RAM and a roomy 500GB hard drive.
The Bad: The 722-BZ608 has an uncomfortable keyboard and an underpowered AMD processor compared with other 11-inchers we've seen.
The Bottom Line: The Acer Aspire One 722-BZ608 is a budget-priced 11-inch laptop that's more powerful than a Netbook, but not as fast as some higher-priced 11-inch alternatives. Better options are out there for a little more money.

Review Summary: With tablets fast encroaching a space, which was once ruled by tablets, it won't be long before we bid farewell to this niche segment that managed to make a big splash, in a rather short time. Till that happens, we can ponder over that one factor that...
The Verdict: Acer has priced the 722 at Rs.18,560 (MOP), which is a good price for a 11.6-inch netbook. But we’d recommend you put in a little more money and get one with a E-350 APU, as it’s a lot faster and Windows responds better as well. Currently, HP’s DM1...

Review Summary: The Acer Aspire One AO722-0828 has a few stand-out features, for a netbook: 4GB of RAM and a 500GB hard drive are rare finds in this category. But a relatively short battery life leaves something to be desired.

Review Summary: Acer mini laptops have progressed a lot during these last years, the Taiwanese company becoming one of the most important computer manufacturers in the world. Aside from the regular notebooks, which are current...
The Verdict: While it can't be called a perfect device, having some faults and weak points, the number of strong points overwhelms these and make the AOD257 a possible best-seller in our opinion. The netbook packs a strong hardware configuration for a device of its...

Review Summary: Raindrop. After the smaller One 522, a larger alternative in the Acer Aspire One 722, also equipped with an AMD Radeon HD 6250 graphics, shows up at our office. Is it a sensible range expansion or will the waves that it causes subside quite fast? ...
The Verdict: A chiclet keyboard should be added to Acer's to-do list for the next generation

Review Summary: New netbooks from Acer, Fujitsu, HP and MSI are running faster with Intel's new low-power processor.
The Verdict: I started by weighing, measuring and thoroughly examining each machine. Over the course of two weeks, I worked with each of them as both business systems and entertainment systems. I took each on at least one day trip out of my office.

Review Summary: Telstra has teamed up with Acer to provide a Windows XP-based netbook solution with a built-in Next G module. This module makes it possible to logon to the Internet from anywhere within Telstra's mobile network, making it the ultimate tool for a road...
The Verdict: The Aspire One ZG8 with an integrated Next G module is one of the best netbooks on the market. The integrated 3G module means there are no dongles hanging off it, and the overall build quality and style of the netbook is superb. We recommend it for...

Review Summary: Netbooks, the small, (mostly) affordable, lightweight computing devices have hit their stride this year. ASUS' Eee PC was the first to market, and the $299 to $399 Eee PC 4G sold like hotcakes. HP jumped in with their Mini-Note and ASUS expanded to...
The Verdict: The Acer Aspire One is the best buy among netbooks at the moment. It's got good performance, solid build quality and good looks. The features for the price beat ASUS, Dell and HP. At $349, portable computing just got more affordable. And for those who...
