Notebooks transformers now quite in demand, but not enough to get around on the popularity of conventional laptops. However, many users prefer devices 2-in-1 laptop-tablet Acer Aspire R7-371T, trying to get a broader functionality. It is worth noting that among the transformers on the market, there are different conversion mechanisms. For example, in a family of Yoga from Lenovo or, for example, some models of Dell Inspiron – is, as a rule, the display 360 degrees of rotation; the ASUS it’s hinge mechanism to fix the screen in four positions. But in the Acer Aspire R7 372T, which will be discussed in this review, the transition from notebook to tablet at the expense of display, rotating inside the frame.
DESIGN
The appearance of the model is virtually identical to its predecessor 2-in-1 laptop-tablet Acer Aspire R7-371T. The case used a gray and black color scheme and the materials – plastic and metal (aluminum alloy). The mechanism by which the display can be rotated made strong enough so that the transformer can offer several convenient modes: Notebook, Ezel, Stand, Pad, Tent, Display. In general, the conversion will not be problematic due to the correct operation of the mechanism. By the way, the laptop is very well assembled. At the junction of the details are not visible gaps, do not play anything. The hinges hold firmly entrusted to them the design, they can reveal the display up to 180 degrees, not to mention the fact that the “inside” the screen frame is also rotated.
The laptop cover has a matte surface is practical. It looks somewhat monotonous, if not take into account the display holder. The inner surface is also nothing special surprise. Traditionally, there is provided a fairly compact size keyboard, touchpad, and the display frame – webcam. As for the bottom, it is performed without a cover. The bottom panel has stereo speakers, the supporting rubber legs, and elongated ventilation grille. One-piece cover fits tightly enough, she screwed the ten screws. Thus, the quick access to internal components, you do not get.
Weighs 2-in-1 laptop-tablet Acer Aspire R7-371T is not as much – 1.6 kg and the size of the housing mm 343h231h21 do not create unnecessary obstacles too often take it with you. However, if we take into account the work in tablet mode, it will be in the hands of too bulky and really heavy.
DISPLAY, SOUND, WEBCAM
The laptop comes with the 13.3-inch screen with a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. By itself, a good figure, but in such a small area of the display, it will affect a number of applications and shortcuts directly to the font itself. However, all this is subjective, and many will not cause any problems.
Generally, the screen of this laptop is one of the advantages. Thus, its characteristics enable the use of the laptop is not only as office device but also qualitative means for processing a photo or video editing. This is achieved thanks to the high brightness level of 330 cd / m2, as well as excellent contrast over 1500: 1. Needless to say that the picture in this display is excellent, especially if you remember to set IPS-matrix with the transfer of the colors close to realistic, and wide viewing angles. By the way, touch screen laptop with a glossy surface. Sensitivity is very good, but glare mirror coating, so to him, one way or another, will have to adapt.
Acoustics in the 2-in-1 laptop-tablet Acer Aspire R7-371T has two speakers, located below the special net at the bottom. Their sound was increasingly clear, but how many of these devices are not characterized by high volume and depth. Perhaps if the laptop were heard in the bass, in balance with the amount of high frequency received, and hope only a slight improvement from the Dolby Home Theater and connected headphones.
For a camera with a resolution of 1.3 megapixels is nothing easier than to organize video calling, for example, into Skype. Also to communicate with your friends, you can use free video chat. But the pros end webcam because the pictures are grainy. In general, not as good quality as we would like.
KEYBOARD AND TOUCHPAD
Designated under the keyboard enough, but the designers did not use this advantage, making it more compact than you would expect. So, the key area is slightly recessed, all located in the usual places, beyond not made anything. Of all the buttons difficult to get on the top row of function, as well as on the arrow block. And if the first you use rarely, the “arrows” can be activated when the cursor control. Also worth noting is that the island is quite thoughtful keyboard key spacing, and the size is not too critical buttons. If we talk about the most pressing, it is not too tight, accompanied by a good return.
At the bottom of the touchpad is located under the keyboard. He stretched, it is pleasant to the touch, smooth surface. on the touch surface of the finger movement, nothing difficult, and the sensitivity of the sensor is triggered in a timely manner, without creating problems with restarting teams. Using the touchpad, you can use the scrolling and zoom. The touchpad and mouse buttons are a single entity. When you click to the right and lower left corners of the run all the standard features that are assigned to each button.
PERFORMANCE
Considered equipment 2-in-1 laptop-tablet Acer Aspire R7-371T (NX.G8SER.006) is based on the operating systems Windows 10 Home 64-bit version. Calculations involved in the ULV-processor is a sixth-generation Intel Core i5-6200U with a nominal frequency of 2.3 GHz. CPU built on standards of 14-nm process technology has four cores and cache in the third level 3 MB. The performance of the chip is not too high, however, he will cope with modern computing the overall plan.
Graphics tasks in the laptop deal only with the integrated Intel HD Graphics 520. This graphics card supports DirectX 12, is able to decode video H.265 / HEVC, makes it possible to display an image on multiple displays. Of course, with only a small amount of system memory, as well as, in general, at a relatively low power built-in accelerator is not able to cope with most modern games. Many of them will be used only on low or medium settings and with a small number of frames per second. For example, Overwatch, or World of Warships – at 25 fps and 45 fps at medium, but Rainbow Six Siege normally run only on low with 32 frames per second. Naturally, and in one, and in another case, the native resolution will have to be reduced to 1366×768 / 1024×768 pixels.
Also in the notebook, it has 8 GB of RAM DDR3L-1600 MHz standard. This is a good support for the CPU and GPU to solve various problems. By the way, instead of a hard disk is complete SSD-drive, which is able to provide a stable and quick work of the laptop. Its volume, in this case, is 128 GB – not too much, but to store all sorts of documentation is sufficient.
PORTS AND COMMUNICATIONS

On the opposite side, there are two interface USB 3.0, combo audio jack for microphone and headphones, HDMI port, and a modern USB Type-C / Thunderbolt 3. At the end, you can see the slot for a Kensington lock.
As for the wireless modules, they include Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac and Bluetooth 4.0.
BATTERY
Small-capacity lithium-ion battery 3220 will not be able to provide high autonomy. However, in view of the low-voltage CPU and the other, is not too power hungry components toppings, you can expect 4-5 hours of streaming video if you lower the screen brightness by half. But office applications or search for information on Internet open spaces allow your laptop to hold about six hours. As for the load, when her battery 2-in-1 laptop-tablet Acer Aspire R7-371T discharged within half an hour.
СONCLUSION
After 2-in-1 laptop-tablet Acer Aspire R7-371T predecessor, our hero could not much surprise. An interesting mechanism by which the display rotates inside the box, we’ve got to know, we can only add that here it is sturdy and reliable. As before, we are pleased with the bright high-quality IPS-display. Unfortunately, a substantial increase in the autonomy of this time we have not noticed. But there is the emergence of new ports and some changes in the filling, for example is now set to the sixth generation processor skylake. In all of this notebook design outstanding, and the device is equipped with everything necessary to complete tasks and weighs quite a bit that enables the owner to take it with you on trips. Perhaps the cost Aspire R7 372T-553E around $ 1,200 an exaggeration, however, there will always be those who will appreciate all the advantages of this laptop worth.
