hi just bought one but no emails are coming in from my nt world. com can anybody help , Gmail is ok
thankyou

hi all ive been bought an acer one ao1 132 for xmas but I'm having nothing but trouble its connected to wifi but wont display any pages,sometimes comes up error message one or more network protocols are missing.im confused as its brand new out box.anyone have any fixes for this issue.thanks Sandra x

buy a 32 gb ultra small usb that's what ive got plugged into my acer net book about £12

Download a program called traystatus - it will give you indicators in the windows bar for caps/num lock as well as HDD activiity.

It's good I bought it perfect for my assignments for college and using for web. Not so much for downloading long videos and lots of pictures as storage not to big. For £100 it's really helped me out as other laptop slow and unresponsive. It's pretty fast to and easy to travel with comes with a year Microsoft office subscription

The case is fairly solid, though if you tap the underside it sounds a bit hollow. It's got a mottled pattern and is matte. And white outside! Keyboard doesn't flex much either - but the power button is next to the delete key, and there is no Caps Lock indicator, just LED's at the side for power and outside case for sleep. The touchpad is great: big and has 2 finger scrolling (Lenovo doesn't).

I don't use it for storage - just connecting to NAS, Kodi, browser etc, plus on trips so I needed the battery life.

That's a real shame that the SD card sticks out, makes it bit inconvenient to increase storage as easy to knock the SD card and either break it or the SD slot. Not sure why Acer have done this as it's a criticism they got on the previous model of the laptop. Seems like they only thing that really changed is the colour of the laptop.

What's the construction quality like, is there flex in the keyboard and/or the casing?

I have one of these ready for collection but think I'll cancel the order unless someone else on here wants it. The Lenovo 100s seems better, has a microSD slot, but the Atom is not compatible with Linux.

Out of the lot of these types of laptops, probably the best seems to be the HP Stream, has a microSD and is compatible with Linux.

It does stick out about half way as shown here. http://imgur.com/GlVdx2F

Mine came with the latest update of Windows 10; 17GB free. I stuck Linux Mint 18 Xfce on it instead, with everything functioning properly, except bluetooth connects, but I couldn't transfer a file. (I don't need this, so just turned it off)
I've also installed Kodi and it runs just fine.

I'm sending this with 10 tabs open in Firefox - just make sure to not do more than one thing at once and it copes.

Battery life is excellent too :smiley:

It did on the old model of this, with the SD card stuck out ~1cm so wasn't practical to have it plugged in as could hit something accidentally and damage the SD card port.

Can anyone that has got their Acer tell me if the SD card sits flush with the casing or does it stick out??

OOS now... £189 from a Tesco partner. Please expire.

ive already got a similar model and had it a few years , works well have a 32gb micro usb stuck in the back to give more storage and never had a problem. I do remember there was some post when I got mine that you could unsolder and solder in a larger memory. Boots up with in a few seconds and runs every thing ive tried on it including mobdro through the android emulator.

That's what I suspected

Oh well, too late now as I've ordered. Will be a cool mod story when I soup it up...

Technically eMMC IS an SSD (solid state drive). It almost certainly is eMMC not what is usually referred to as an SSD, eMMC is standard practice in these cloudbook devices.

The Amazon link states it's an SSD; if so, there's an easy path to upgrade to a larger Samsung Evo 850 or other...can anyone confirm by tearing down their recently received netbook :wink:

Got mine yesterday - seems great! Not too plasticity with a nice texture and seems quite well made. Also has a water-resistant keyboard! Win 10 is already fully updated and there's around 15gb spare on the C drive. It's a full size SD card that it takes rather than the micro SD that most of this type of device seems to use. Oh, webcam seems decent as well :smile:

Bought Cheers op

Thank you - will make a great first laptop for my daughter - and stop her borrowing mine :smiley:

Does this have a webcam

Even doing that, further down the line you get in the same situation again

32gb is not enough for windows anymore. After the recent big updates you will start to have big problems and windows updates will start to fail as there won't be enough storage to download them or to then create the recovery points it makes before install. Look for 64gb minimum

Does this have skype video calling.

Beware!!!!!!! Why does it say "skimlinks" in the url?!!!!!!!!

Would I be able to play a game such as Football Manager 2017 on this? It looks as if it meets the specs to be able to.

I bought one of these earlier - was away to get the lenovo one in curry's but this seems pretty much the same spec for 40 quid less. Had some instore but we're scanning at 149 so I just ordered to collect.

Any good for traveling? Need a cheap laptop in case something happens to it. Could it handle video editing?

Good deal - heat added.
Don't forget though Dell are having a Black Friday sale - you could bag a 15.6" celeron laptop for £129.

thanks ordered.

Anyone actually got one and can comment on how usable it is? Looking for a friend who has an old Windows netbook that ran pretty slow but don't want to suggest something that's even slower than that! She'll just be using for web, mail and document editing. Can you also use it for YouTube or iPlayer without stuttering?

Also anyone found out if you can upgrade the RAM?

I'm sure it will do that just fine , it will be great as long as you remember to close unused tabs and don't keep to many things running at once , fine for you tube , internet etc ​

I know this won't play top games but would it be OK to play facebooks games

In the reviews someone has said
"
​I have successfully dual booted ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Win10 and both give full hardware functionality"
so for those more techy it might be a good little device for tinkering with ;-)

Hot from me , great 1st post :-)

My son needs something to do his homework on watch a bit of you tube and probably and maybe watch a movie from usb, is this likely to be sufficient?

For those asking about office 365 just get a free alternative such as open365

or http://www.techradar.com/news/software/business-software/top-10-best-alternatives-to-office-365-office-2016-1325090

Anyone know if can buy instore ar same price yet?

It is easy to see le_jaeger's confusion: perhaps he thought it would be 365 years? It would be an easy mistake to make :-)

Anybody manage to spot how long the O365 subscription is for?

Interestingly, I would assume that the Celeron in this would out perform the Atom in the Medion deal (mainly because Celerons are usually higher up the food chain and its a newer release). But that isn't the case (if synth benches are to be believed), so maybe the Medion edges it if resolution is a deal breaker.

Thanks that makes this tempting as effectively is a lot less but I imagine its lack of power will frustrate like my mistake with the connect 10 tablet did with its lack of ram and my love for open tabs.

These are OK for what they are, browsing with more than a couple of tabs open can be slow though. The c drive will probably have around 6 or 7gb free after windows, so if you can bung a 32gb or 64gb sd card in though it is enough storage for most people I would think

after the first year the Office365 and 1tb will cost £5.99 per month.

Ordered 2 for the kids

can you upgrade the ram?

All I see on here is 15.6 inch screens this is the first laptop I've seen with a small screen which is what I'm after.

not bad for a first post :smirk:

Good post indeed OP, keep em coming imo! HOT....

Ordered! Thanks op

Thanks - that looks alright though only a trial for Office365.
Presumably this one will have the same issues with W10 updates as mentioned in the Aldi reviews.
(BTW Ordered from Amazon just before stock ran out - more coming on Thurs but price will go up again.)

Really tempted by this - I got a Lenovo N22 Chromebook for this price a few months back but hate the screen (and a bit of pain not being able to work in Word/Excel). The resolution is the same on this machine but I wonder whether it looks better.

Also, about to sell out on Amazon...

Sorry - not got it yet, pick up Saturday

Great Spot. My netbook died over the summer so I was looking for a replacement and this certainly meets what I need. The 32Gb is eMMC by the way.

Is the 32Gb an SSD?

what's cloud book exactly? I need something to watch movies, browse net and maybe some typing. would this be fine?

I doubt its an SSD I have an HP of simular spec and mines not....yes ideal for watching movies, browsing net etc

Does anyone know of office 365 is pre installed or if it is transferable to a different machine ? Thanks

Worth it at this price.

Price matched at Amazon:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Acer-inches-AO1-132-Celeron-Windows/dp/B01J3UVRRM

thinking of getting one but how is the storage as its only got 32gb and how does it cope with windows updated and adding say word or something, just need it for internet use and some letter typing? would this be ok. also if i didn't like can i return it for full refund?

Very good deal. Especially considering O365 alone would set you back £30-40.
Got a very similar HP model, albeit 14" for my daughters birthday and it isn't as slow as I expected.
Once I removed McAfee of course. :-)

If your daughter is quite young you might want to investigate Microsoft Family so you can control the hours she can spend on it, sites etc.

All things considered, that's pretty good. Good job :stuck_out_tongue:

Remember its a cloud book so not much internal storage.

Good price though, heat.
