Design

Review Acer Aspire 4750G Picture 2Review Acer Aspire 4750G Picture 2
Floating in design has become a common trend in low-cost laptops.

According to the current general trend on new low-cost models, Acer Aspire 4750G possesses a faux embossed carbon fiber case, even though it is made of plastic. This type of design brings both modern and luxurious features, while helping the machine to prevent fouling during use.

The Aspire 4750G has a fairly compact design, although the screen size is 14 inches. The slightly curved design in the edges makes it feel thinner than the actual size. It weighs 2.26 kg, which is the average of other 14-inch laptops.

Front edge with SD memory card reader.

Aspire 4750G is fully equipped with connectivity from HDMI, VGA, USB 2.0 to the latest USB 3.0 standard. However, it lacks the high-speed eSATA data exchange port. Owning a large screen, it has enough space to own a DVD optical read / write drive.

The heat sink slot of the machine on the left side is arranged in the middle of separating two ranges of connection ports instead of lying close to the rear edge like many other current models. To ensure that the connections are not folded properly, the SD memory card reader is forwarded right next to the signal line of the device.

Typical keyboard of Acer.

Aspire 4750G equipped with traditional Acer keyboard. Due to the 14-inch screen, the device does not have separate number keys. Unfortunately, to create aesthetics and features, the navigation keys are a bit small. In addition, this model also does not have separate multimedia keys above.

Acer's keyboard design feels quite deep, but in fact re-use shows that the key journey is a bit short. The keys feel a bit light, so it will take a lot of time to get used to the device if the user is using the keyboard for the desktop like Logitech or Misumi. In return, the distance between moderate keys does not cause the wrong typing.

Touchpad.

In contrast to the embossed part like the outer shell, the touchpad has a glossy plastic surface. This type of design is slightly "lost " a bit due to the use of feeling particularly adherent when used long with sweaty hands. Therefore, when using, there is a feeling that is not really standard in operations. The two mouse buttons of the device are quite light, although the design on the same hard bar but when pressed is not mistaken and quite sensitive.

Sound.

Speaker system is the most notable strong point on C600.

Equipped with Dolby Advance Audio, Acer's laptop has higher sound quality than low-end models but still can't match entertainment laptops in the range of 13 to 15 million as HP. or Asus.

The sound is small enough to be heard in rooms below 20 m2 when turned on 100%. Sound quality is really not convincing to listeners. The bass almost does not appear while the treble sounds a bit shy, especially when the volume is fully opened.
