This review first appeared in issue 360 ofPC Pro.
Mostall-in-one PCsinclude 24in or 27in panels, butAceris thinking big with the Aspire S32.
The first is a plain 1080pwebcam, which is more than good enough to use for video calls.
A giant detachable touchpad sits at the base, along with a stylus
And the third is a strip light that switches between white, yellow or a mix of the two.
Acer also bundles an enormous detachable touchpad.
However, the image quality is more than good enough for TV viewing and work.
The huge 31.5in display provides superb colour coverage
It has three minor weaknesses as aPC monitor.
Second, color accuracy only just the right side of acceptable, with an average of 2.62.
The panel has one big strength that arguably outweighs its flaws, which is color coverage.
You wont find the latest silicon inside, but I have no argument withIntels Core i7-1360P processor.
It remains a speedy performer in everyday use, even if it doesnt wow in benchmarks.
The other downside of cramming the electronics into the narrow stand is that things get hot.
Wi-Fi 6E is another welcome inclusion.
Acer is more generous with its storage, throwing in a 1TBSSD.
Despite my criticisms, I grew fond of this machine.
Then again, so does the price: at 1,499 its too expensive.
