Review Blurb:

Combining the svelteness of an ultraportable with the screen size of a larger laptop, the Acer TravelMate TimelineX 8481T attempts to deliver the best of both worlds for business users. This sleek system crams a 14-inch display into a 13.3-inch chassis, offers seriously long battery life –

The Pros
Slim brushed-metal chassis; Solid Core i5 performance; Deep security features; Comfortable keyboard with accurate touchpad; Very long battery life

The Cons
Weak graphics performance; Lid picks up fingerprints; Battery bulges out the bottom

Verdict
The Acer TravelMate TimelineX 8481T offers impressive portability, long battery life, and solid performance for workers on the move.

    Anyone used this before and can share their experiences? Has an SSD which is excellent for the price.

  • mrmagoober on 11/05/2016 - 09:56

    is there any mention of how old these laptops are? I didn't notice on the ad.

    • edrift on 11/05/2016 - 09:59

      reviews are from 2011 so i'm guessing around then? that'd make it around 5 years old… battery should be well and truly stuffed by now and looks like they sell for around $37 on ebay (the battery not the laptop).

      Acer TravelMate 8481T were released in 2011H2 / 2012H1 so at least 4 years old. They are well built business laptops from Acer (whereas Acer Aspires are pretty crappy).

    Seems like a much better deal than yesterday's Dell https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/247174 for $10 more. More RAM, SSD instead of HDD and much lighter.

    Dont buy.

    *Scam alert.

      probably need a bit more info?

        I don't see why you would neg someone telling you its a scam.

        Go ahead, buy it, then come back and tell us how you didn't get your item, my first comment was made fast to notify others to not buy, in case they impulse purchase it.

          So what's your story?

        • ozmu on 11/05/2016 - 10:47

          Sold out. Looks like the scammers have taken off the product.

          Did you check the past deals from Ozstock posted on this site? there are many, if this was a 'scam' company Ozstock would have been banned long before now

          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/201964
          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/182762

          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/190071
          Plus many more

          There is always an inherent risk buying an ex-lease lappy/computer but the risk buying from Ozstock vs others would be no less or no greater. FWIW I bought this deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/190071 last year and got what I paid for. Just posting a deal that may help some peeps!

          @stewartedin:

          How can negative reviews on the comment bar show if people like you neg them?

          Also reviews of this company are horrible.

        • stewartedin on 11/05/2016 - 11:08

          @Avacardooo Rayy Mee: I didn't neg your post that's for others to decide

          just a point of accuracy, I didn't neg anything. might want to check you facts.

          regardless my query still stands.

        • Avacardooo Rayy Mee on 11/05/2016 - 14:14

          @mrmagoober:

          Removing your posts to make yourself look better? ha, what a joke.

        • mrmagoober on 12/05/2016 - 11:04

          @Avacardooo Rayy Mee: Removing what post? All my posts are still there. No edits no deletions.

          A simple request for a bit of explanation on why people should stay clear seems to have been met with an unreasonable opposition. Not sure where the hostility is coming from.

        • Avacardooo Rayy Mee on 13/05/2016 - 12:37

          @mrmagoober:

          Do some research on the topic before you make a fool of yourself.

        • mrmagoober on 14/05/2016 - 17:26

          @Avacardooo Rayy Mee:

          Sure that is what I will do. As (I imagine) always a pleasure dealing with you. Lots of slurs, not much substance or anything to corroborate your comments. And lastly an inherent lack of understanding on what forums like this are about, until next time Avacardooo Rayy Mee.

        • Avacardooo Rayy Mee on 16/05/2016 - 12:24

          @mrmagoober:

          Come back with facts instead of nonsense.

        • mrmagoober on 16/05/2016 - 15:15

          @Avacardooo Rayy Mee:

          From your previous comments it seems like you aren't terribly interested in facts.

          Like I said, I haven't neg'ed any of your posts (as you accused), I didn't edit any of my posts (as you also accused). It would be nice if you could explain what facts those accusations were based on? You also accused my of not doing my research for simply asking you why you called it a scam. It seems reasonable for someone to ask for something to be substantiated. Or are you saying it is not reasonable to ask for substantiated claims?

          Anyway I'm going to leave it here. I don't really have the inclination to continue conversing with you. Cheers.

        • Avacardooo Rayy Mee on 16/05/2016 - 15:40

          @mrmagoober:

          I don't know why you continue to cry and wine over this topic, it is old, stop having a cry.

          Incompetent people like you make my head hurt.

    • CyberMurning on 11/05/2016 - 16:26

      weird the last purchase changed to kric1941 now - its been sold out or maybe they add one stock in a time

  • poolroom on 13/05/2016 - 14:53

    For fellow purchasers - my laptop was shipped yesterday and I received it today around 1pm, in Sydney. Check your Orders page on Ozstock and you might see a tracking number in there for yours.

    The laptop is as per the advertised spec and in excellent condition, with only a few very minor scuff marks on the lid. It comes well packaged, it's been physically cleaned up and has a fresh install on Win7 Pro 64 bit on it. There's the Windows license sticker on the bottom of the machine that you'd expect.

    I'm not going to mess with Win7 too much and currently have Win10 installing on it. Very snappy machine, well built and has a solid feel. Battery was at ~30% out of the box which is only to be expected coming out of storage and time will tell how well it goes, but that's not going to bother me either way.

    It's an excellent machine for the money and no concerns with Ozstock either. Very happy with the purchase.
