Acer TimelineUltra M5-581TG-73516G52Mass (NX.M2GSA.006) 15.6" LED, i7-3517U Windows 8, 6GB, 500GB, Nvidia GT640M 1GB

Just came across this deal researching laptops for a friend. I believe it qualifies for a $149 cashback from Acer however centrecom havent noted this like they have with their other Acer models. Seems like a decent price when compared to the recent 20% off Acer Dick Smith deals.

Shipping costs look to be around $17

Gets a good review at http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Acer-Aspire-Timeline-Ult…

    Hmmm looks decent, can anyone confirm cashback? It doesnt look like its on the list here http://ec3.acer.com.au/AcerCashBack/ACA/Projects/CashBack/Lo…

    Kinda tempting, but "acer" branding is making it hard to go through with it. Any thoughts?

    Edit: Without cash back definitely a no…

      The Timeline Series is actually built quite well.

      Some of the super cheap Aspire ones are still built pretty crappy.

      I had a Timeline 3820TG

      Babied that thing like you wouldn't believe.

      It was awesome until it died one month out of warranty.

      Take from that what you will as YMMV

    Embedded RAM is the dumbest thing ever. Still interested though.

  • morpheu on 23/09/2013 - 00:02

    are you sure this is the same specs as centrecom? this states weight @2.05kg but centercom page states 2.3kg

    • heybuz on 23/09/2013 - 00:28

      The specs are taken from the specification tab on the centrecom website..

  • homersyd on 23/09/2013 - 00:31

    is there a Asus alternative that's also 15.6" in a similar price range???

  • bibiphok on 23/09/2013 - 00:35

    One Acers, usually, the killer is the screen… very poor viewing angles make them very uncomfortable to use… this one as a cheap TN display

      Went to Dick Smith to check out the V5-573 , it was really nicely built however the screen was really poor. The pixels can be seen from a distance, very obvious in green and blue. Went to two dicks and officeworks. V5-571 at officeworks was the same.

      for an acer laptop of $700, i expect a fhd.
