It works quietly and does not need too much energy, which gets especially apparent when compared to the Aspire One 756 models with the same design. The Aspire V5-131's system performance is sufficient for everyday tasks. Its battery capacity (V5-131: 56 Wh, ThinkPad Edge: 63 Wh, V5-122P: 30 Wh) is only slightly lower than the ThinkPad Edge's, but it needs significantly less energy.Īcer offers a balanced bundle. It is not surprising that the Aspire achieves the best battery life.
The energy-saving profile is selected and the display brightness is set to about 150 cd/m². During this test, a script automatically loads web site every 40 seconds. The ThinkPad Edge (5:44 h) is on par and the V5-122P (3:07 h) performs worse than the competitors again. The Wi-Fi test ends after 5:52 h on the Aspire. The load runtimes were recorded by the Battery Eater Classic test with maximum display brightness, profile "maximum performance" and enabled wireless modules. The ThinkPad Edge (2:12 h) and V5-122P (1:53 h) shut down significantly earlier. The Aspire achieves a battery life of 3:49 h under load. The Battery Eater Reader's test records the idle runtime with lowest display brightness, energy-saving profile, and disabled wireless modules. The ThinkPad Edge's (10:23 h) is significantly shorter and the V5-122P (6:19 h) performs even worse. The battery life of the Aspire is 12:15 h while idle. Information about these aspects is available in our review of the Aspire One 756-B847X and the Aspire One 756-NU.SH0EG.007. We compare the notebook to the following competitors: Lenovo's ThinkPad Edge E130 NZUAXMB ( Core i3-3227U, HD Graphics 4000) and Acer's Aspire V5-122P ( AMD A6-1450, Radeon HD 8250).Īs the notebook has the same design as the Aspire One 756, we will not describe the case, input devices, connectivity and speakers in this article. We have already reviewed two models of this series, the Aspire One 756-B847X ( Celeron 847, HD Graphics (Sandy Bridge)) and the Aspire One 756-NU.SH0EG.007 ( Pentium 987, HD Graphics (Sandy Bridge)). Acer also sells it under the name Aspire One 756. Careful readers will be familiar with the computer. Acer shares this opinion and offers such a model with the Aspire V5-131.
