Acer S3 - A premium laptop that's now an excellent used buy
What strikes you first about the Acer S3 is the compact sleek design of the laptop shell as you pick it up. The aluminium chassis is lovely and makes it solid but light.
For a series of laptops that's almost five years old its design still feels current and its size still makes it an ultracompact laptop. Readily found with excellent specs (i5/i7 processer, SSD storage, etc) for £150-300. RAM is harder to find in abundance - 8GB would be wonderful but 4GB is typical.
Battery life is as one might expect of a used laptop - variable depending on its previous ownership but spares are relatively inexpensive and easy to swap. New battery offers about 4+ hours sustained use which is good for the size vs power. Good quality screens - colour, contrast and viewing angles.
Having bought two S3s in recent months we've been delighted with the result and can heartily recommend it as a used purchase. Hold out for best condition (ie no knocks, dents, scratches or palm rest wear) and you won't be disappointed.
The full 128/256GB SSD drive (rather than the hybrid 320GB HDD - 20GB SSD) is also worth holding out for. But new SSD drives in the appropriate form factor can be found and fitted easily enough at no great expense.
As an Apple Macbook user most of the time I'm pretty picky when it comes to Windows laptops and the newer S3s are one of the few that just works as you would want. Okay so no backlit keyboard but that's only very recently started to appear regularly on premium ultrabooks.
For the money they're a good machine if good performance (accepting 4GB ram is the most you're gonna get) and portability matter.

Great artificial grass
