Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The Acer Aspire 5738 range has been designed for home users that want a portable PC with the strong multitasking capability of Intel dual core processors and comprehensive multimedia features like HD 15.6” widescreen and Dolby Surround Sound, all housed in a stylish chassis which won’t look out of place on the move or in the home.

Acer Aspire chassis detailDesign
The Aspire 5738 features an attractive glossy sapphire blue cover that looks both classy and distinctive. On the inside, the floating keyboard makes typing easier, reducing the chance of “typos” by providing a clear separation between the keys. The power on switch is illuminated in a bright blue neon light, showing the performance waiting within - this contrasts neatly with the dark grey Neoweave palm rest, designed to reduce fingerprint smudges and create a classy environment to enjoy your work and play.


Crystal Clear Visuals
A lot of attention has been paid to the visual display of this laptop. Featuring a high definition 15.6” widescreen with 16:9 aspect ratio ensures it will deliver stunningly bright and lifelike images, ideal for enjoying high definition content.
The screen also features CineCrystal™ technology for intense colour saturation, superior contrast ratio and sharp photo images making image reproduction clearer and movies and photos more enjoyable.

All Encompassing Audio
Great multimedia is not just about the visuals, you also need great audio! The Aspire 5738 features the latest 3rd Generation Dolby Home Theater® technologies for virtual 5.1 surround sound, which delivers a vivid audio experience to music, movies, and games, either through the speakers or headphones.


Touchpad movement examples, including scroll and zoomFinger Tip Control
Technology is only useful if you can make it work for you, and the Aspire 5738 keeps you in control.

The new multi-gesture touchpad lets you navigate, scroll and zoom with ease. By doing a circular motion you can simply scroll up and down an image or file for seamless navigation. Want to zoom in and out? All you need to do is a pinch action to zoom in and the reverse to zoom out. And finally, to change pages or skip through a set of photos simply swipe your fingers across the pad, it could not be easier.

To ensure you do not disrupt your movie or games by accidentally moving the cursor, Acer have built in a button by the touchpad that will disable the touchpad to prevent this happening.

On the top left of the keyboard is the easy launch buttons for Wireless and the Acer Back Up key, which allows you to duplicate files to a chosen location quickly and easily.

Acer PowerSmart KeyOn the top right of the keyboard is the Acer PowerSmart Key, this allows users to adjust the power consumption of the laptop to prolong battery life and increase your mobility!


WiFi Draft N certified -- SignalUp technologyComplete Connectivity
Notebooks excel on their connectivity, and the Aspire 5738 does not let you down.

Connectivity to the internet is available via Gigabit LAN, the fastest LAN connection available or wireless 802.11a/b/g/Draft-N, the latest wireless standard. To enhance the wireless signal on this notebook Acer include Acer SignalUp technology which uses a high performance PIFA wireless antenna and optimises the location of the antenna on the notebook giving exceptional wireless performance.

Web Cam
The integrated Acer Crystal Eye webcam allows you to keep in touch with friends and family, face to face. To ensure you get the best experience it also features enhanced Acer PrimaLite™ technology consisting of a premium sensor, ultra-efficient firmware, and high-quality lenses to provide superior video performance under low-light conditions.

Great for our needs 29 Aug 2009
By Julie
We have a desktop but we wanted a laptop to take away, and to use around the house. We bought the Aspire 5738Z and we are really pleased with it. We have had no problems going online, it picked up our wireless sky broadband with no problems and is fast! We also have a dongle for when away and again even in relative poor signal areas it connects no problem. The mouse pad is easy to use and the scrolling function makes life much easier. It has a large screen but we use it for dvds when away so it suits us. We could have spent alot more, but we feel for the money we got more than we bargained for. The battery life could be longer, but we bought an in car charger for when away camping and it worked really well. Overall very happy!

After owning several laptops, i had initally decided that a 'cheapie' would do. When nothing cane close to the performance I needed, I decided on the Acer. It came with 4GB ram and 500GB HDD, all for £399.00. BARGIN! Easy to set-up, desperately easy to use and excellent performance.
If you are looking for an excellent notebook, please concider this. I cant understand why some of the other reviews are so poor. All I can say is that I would be happy to recomend to my own family.
