Acer 4830TG Review part 1 of 2

This is the review of the 4830TG. I did not cover the keyboard “flex” and hardware build in this video. Also, not shown is the built-in battery, which is, well, built-in. Please note that Battcare updated the time left to 8:02 after I made the video.
Video Rating: 4 / 5

Can pick this up at your local Costco warehouse for 0, or on Amazon for 0. It’s a fairly well-rounded netbook. The only downside is with its processor, but that goes for nearly all netbooks. Specs: – AMD C-50 dual-core CPU (1GHz) – ATI Radeon HD 6250 – 2GB RAM – 320GB 5400RPM HDD – Windows 7 Home Premium x64 w/SP1 – 11.6″ 16:9 display (1366×768) – Multi-touch trackpad More info can be found from the product page on Acer’s website: us.acer.com twitter.com Will be uploading a video shortly after this one to tell you all a little bit about my upcoming trip.

    I hear that Acer’s support is extremely poor. I am considering purchasing this laptop as a 14inch laptop is ideal for me, perfect for watching DVDs and downloaded TV series while remaining very portable with a reasonable spec. This is only a mid range laptop and has to be judged accordingly. In terms of price and spec the dell inspiron 14z is a competitor.
    Like most in an ideal world neither would be my first choice but for spec and price this seem to be most competitive.

    hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooly shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiitttt

  6. TheVolure says:

    Can you make a video of opening the laptop case ?

  7. ruhone says:

    Q1. Can anyone reflet on the heat & noise issues? I am not a gamer.
    Q2. I have found that Acer provided a paper-clip-type poke hole for temporarily disconnecting the battery for hard reboots. Can it be done without opening the back cover?
    Thanks!

  8. razscott says:

    Good thourough review man, a contender for my next, just wish the 14″ had better spec.

    hey man, thanks so much for the video. i’m in process to change pc and i’m looking for the AS4830 TG, i think it’s amazing! looking your video i’ve received a lot reply about my own question! but if i can, i have to ask you more.
    About the audio, how would you rate it? because i read a lot of conflicting opinions.
    Someone says it’s really great, someone says the opposite, like it’s a low quality audio. so i ask you :)
    And last but not least, i think, surely even, i’ll get linux, does ti work?

  10. TheVolure says:

    Can you ship it to Acer for a new battery I pay them. DO you think they will replacement of course for a fee am willing to pay if they do have the service ?

  11. TheVolure says:

  15. MrCythos says:

    @karingz6 i think this one is 4830tg-6450, the one with 750 gb is the 6455

  16. karingz6 says:

    theres a new aspire timelinex 4830tg-…..and i saw 750gb hdd compare to that but also same price ..how confusing…

  17. pidzse says:

    thank you the review.

  18. MynameisntRandy says:

    Does anyone know if it is possible to replace the keyboard with a keyboard from another laptop brand?

  19. Purpl3Pie says:

    I might get this for my Birthday! Do you recommend it thought?

  20. Dr762x39 says:

    I wish someone would do more than just an unboxing or game on this machine. PLEASE show what office looks like running on this or any other programs to get a feel of what maybe different resolutions look like! Thanks

  21. 9374wye says:

    I think it is AMD Dual-Core C-60 not 50

  22. ipod16gen says:

    How good is this at light gaming

  23. justforupdates says:

    Hi! nice overview.. but can you do a more in depth review of this netbook? thanks!

  24. iphonegeekyboy says:

    I bought it when it’s new using it as my daily computer overall I have to I’m satisfied

  25. ablescott says:

    the audio quality of your video is incredible – what are you using for a microphone?

  26. dranterpreet says:

    I like the part “costco has good return policy”

    I am not the only one!

  27. Eric3Frog says:

    @zelox991 Thanks!

  28. zelox991 says:

    @Eric3Frog Hey man. Yes this computer can use 4gb of ram. Search ao722-bz848 on amazon and one should pop right up with 4gb of ram. Good luck bro.

  29. Eric3Frog says:

    Can this model access/use 4GB of RAM?
    All sites I have seen say it maxes at 2GB RAM.

  30. Eric3Frog says:

    Can this access 4GB of RAM?
    All sites I have seen say it maxes at 2GB RAM.

  31. merandhi says:

    Sounds like Windows 7 should go with hardware upgradable to 4 gigs of ram. Far as I can tell this unit maxes out with the 2 gigs it comes with and it has only one ram slot. Anyone know different? Anyone know if Acer has something similar that does allow for expanding the ram at a later date?

  32. lmrojas1990 says:

    @britnell101 no optical drive, so no

  33. britnell101 says:

    can you watch dvds on this thing

  34. Fluffy4020 says:

    1:54 for unboxing

  35. anime891 says:

    Way to open the box. Pretty harshly.

  36. monopolystory says:

    hows the gaming on this?

  37. daeuneoms says:

    I was going to buy this netbook.. Are you sure that this netbook is useful?

  38. spyromaster2000 says:

    Great video, this is how unboxings should be done. Thanks so much.

  39. tuberoako777 says:

    I might snag this at Target 250 bucks + 50 Gift Card.. Hmm.. or a 350 bucks B940 + HD3000, 14″ :)

  40. atbglenn says:

    @itskevinheath It has only 1 slot. Crucial has a 4gb, DDR3 PC3-8500 for $36.99
