Acer Aspire Z3 in the flesh, first impressions

At yesterday’s joint launch of Acer and Microsoft Windows 10 here in Taipei, the Taiwanese company introduced their first portable All-in-One PC. It basically looks likes an over-sized Windows 10 tablet which has a 17.3-inch full HD touchscreen display. There’s a kickstand at the back you can flip out to position the device upright. It also comes with a wireless mouse and keyboard when you set it up in a desktop mode.

What makes the Z3 different from your typical All-in-One PCs is that this one comes with a built-in battery which allows for up to 5 hours of operation when not plugged to the power outlet.

Acer’s case use for the Z3 involves having an All-in-One PC running at home but something that is still portable and that you can unplug, take it in the car while still working (as a Windows 10 tablet) and continue the job when you get to the office.

The device runs on either an Intel Pentium N3700 or Celeron N3150/N3050 with up to 8GB of RAM and storage options of 32/60/128/256GB SSD or 500GB HDD.

Despite its size, the Z3 is still relatively slim (15.6mm) and light (2.04kg) yet still manages to support full-sized USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI port, SD card reader and Dolby Audio speakers.

Acer expects to release the Aspire Z3 sometime later this year with a starting price of around Php31,000.
