Overview

» Enlarge

The good:
  • Good connectivity options
  • Reasonable performance for the size
The bad:
  • Speakers aren't great
  • No digital video out
The bottomline:

The Aspire 2920 should suit most people who are on a budget and like to stay portable, but still need a bit of grunt. If it had an HDMI port, it'd almost be the perfect solution.

Editors’ rating:

8/10

RRP: AU$1899.00
