Optimized touch experience for extra productivity
The 10-point multi-touch screen(2) allows users to tap, swipe and pinch with their fingertip to swiftly browse through content. The smooth navigation experience is further complemented with the Precision Touchpad that supports six core Windows 8.1 TouchPad gestures, reducing un-intended tap and cursor motions on the touchpad and improving pinch-to-zoom, smoother scrolling and screen navigation.
The Acer chiclet keyboard offers deeper keystrokes and well-spaced keys that provide solid tactile feedback while maintaining a quiet typing experience. The optional M-DISC Ready™ Drive(2) stores up to 4.7GB data on M-DISC™ media to provide safe data storage for several decades and protects those priceless photo memories or data. Zero Air Gap technology(2) increases the display’s contrast ratio and improves panel visibility even in bright environments, such as under sunlight.
Ultimate portability in its class
Designed for users who want portability, productivity and entertainment in a trendy and affordable package, the Acer Aspire E 14 and E 15 series provide up to 7 hours(3) of long battery life for value-oriented notebooks. The Aspire E 15 with built-in optical drive is one of the slimmest form factors in this size and product segment.
Users can enjoy the convenience of having content right at their fingertips. The built-in AcerCloud(4) automatically syncs data across multiple devices, permitting information sharing among laptops, mobile phones and tablets. AcerCloud allows access to remotely stored photos, music, videos and documents via the Internet. Simply click the icons for Acer Photo, Acer Media, Acer Docs, Acer Remote Files and get access to the remote files anytime, anywhere.
Thoughtful placement of the I/O ports on the left and right sides enable the Aspire E 14 and E 15 series to conveniently connect with other peripherals.
Enhanced multimedia experience
The Aspire E 15 is Skype Certified offering one of the best voice over IP (VoIP) experiences. Built-in digital microphone and high quality speakers enhance bass band audio performance and allow authentic Skype communication.
The Aspire E Series notebooks with Windows 8.1, up to 16 GB memory(2) and 1 TB hard disk, incorporate the latest NVIDIA GeForce 800M series or AMD Radeon™ R-Series discrete graphics for an exceptional cinematic or gaming experience. The 2014 AMD A-Series accelerated processors or 4th Generation Intel® Core™ processors boost performance and power efficiency for a full day’s work.
Movies and multimedia content are vivid and crisp on the optional Full HD LED display(2) delivering a truly cinematic experience. Or connect to high definition TV for even larger viewing through the HDMI output.
