p>The laptop industry has become very advanced. Companies have produced some of the finest laptops. This article is about yet another article introduced by Acer, one of the major competitors in the respective industry. Acer has introduced a laptop, known as the Aspire R7

with one of the most amazing features, an adjustable screen.

p>When Acer plans a global press event, asking journalists to fly in from twelve time zones away, you know it’s going to announce more than just some back-to-school PCs. The company just announced the Aspire R7, a 15-inch laptop

whose display sits on a flexible “Ezel” hinge, allowing it to be pushed up and back so that it lies nearly flat — yep, just like an all-in-one desktop. Similar to the Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga line, too, you can flip the screen all the way back so that it faces away from the keyboard, a feature that seems especially well-suited for giving presentations.

p>In terms of specs,

is being a little cagey, but we have learned the R7 has a 15.6-inch, 1080p display with a choice of Core i5 and i7 processors. Pen input is possible, too. The whole thing weighs in the neighborhood of five and a half pounds. Also confirmed: it’s up for pre-order now for $999, available exclusively at Best Buy in the US. We’re told it will ship May 17th. In the meantime, we’ve got hands-on photos below, and we’ll very shortly be adding some first impressions after the break.

p>Now users can work on their laptop and adjust the screen in accordance with their usability and convenience. The screen will be placed on the Ezel Hinge connected to the main body. This hinge will enable the screen of the laptop to become absolutely flat when pushed to its extreme. This option is especially suited to those users who have to give a lot of presentations.

p>As weird as the R7 looks, it’s in many ways just another Windows 8 slider — just bigger with a hinge design we haven’t really seen used on a notebook before. Still, the R7

appears to present many of the same advantages and disadvantages as other sliders we’ve seen: despite being a reasonably large machine, it’s keyboard is about as cramped as what you’d find on a much smaller PC. That’s because when the display is propped up, it eats up at least half the available deck space.

p >Giving credit where it’s due, though, the backlit keys at least have a pleasantly soft finish, and feel nice to type on. But all these things are trade-offs, right? In exchange for the squat keyboard you get a display with truly adjustable screen angles — something we can’t say about other sliders we’ve tested. Also, we’ll go on record saying that this is one of the smoothest, most controlled hinges we’ve ever encountered — not just on slider convertibles, but on desktops, too. The question, we suppose is: how badly do you need a table-top

display that you’d be willing to compromise on the typing experience?

p>Acer further accentuates the slim profile on the S5 by having curved sides. This also means that full-sized ports such as USB and HDMI cannot fit–a power button (thin and difficult to press), an SD card reader and a headphone jack are the only connectors at the sides. The rest of the thicker connectors are concealed at the rear of the laptop in a hidden I/O panel that opens up when you press a button.

p>If Acer’s Aspire S5 were an episode of Friends, it’d be forever known as “The One with the Motorized Port Cover.” Unfortunately, while it was cool to have a complex, Thunderbirds-esque mechanical loading sequence on the laptop, it did make using its USB ports a bit of a chore. Furthermore, lackluster build quality, a weak battery and some serious usability flaws means that it probably can’t justify that sky-high price. That said, we figure plenty of you still went out and bought one, so tell us — did your experience meet up to our review, and what, if Acer had asked, would you change?n
