Acer Iconia W510: Price, Specs and Availability in the Philippines

Customers get a boost in efficiency using the Iconia W510 in productivity mode. The keyboard dock seamlessly connects to the tablet PC, transforming it into a full-featured notebook for a first-rate typing experience.

The Acer Iconia Tab W510 is no ordinary tablet you can just flash in any coffee shop just to show off that you have, well, a tablet. It’s like bringing a mini workstation with you — whether for work or for life. This everywhere-you-go productivity arsenal, launched recently by Acer Philippines, sports the newest operating system in the universe, the Windows 8. With a convertible form factor for more convenient use, the Acer Iconia Tab W510 is a lightweight, ultra-responsive tablet that sports an unbelievable nine hours of battery life. More about the Acer Iconia W510 after the jump.

Its biggest competitive advantage lies in its tri-mode usability, where it can go from Tablet mode to Productivity mode (for content creation through the keyboard dock) and Presentation mode, where its 295-degree twist positions allow for comfortable browsing, presentation or video viewing.

These advantages are also backed with its performance capabilities through impressive specifications. An Intel Atom Z2760 (1MB L2 Cache, 1.50GHz, DDR3 1066 MHz, 6.5W) processor and a 2GB of LPDDR2 800 MHz onboard memory chip support guarantee fast processing of multimedia applications for faster responsiveness you would not expect from any tablet PC in the market.

In case you forgot your USB or any removable storage, the Acer Iconia Tab W510’s 32GB embedded multimedia card (MMC) can generously accommodate your files, whether photos, videos or office documents temporarily until you can transfer it to a bigger hard drive for further safekeeping.

Presentations — whether AVPs or watching your favorite movies or showing your PowerPoint presentations — are also a breeze for the Acer Iconia Tab W510’s video and audio capabilities. A 1366 x 768 resolution, high-brightness Acer CineCrystal LED-backlit TFT-LCD with an integrated five-point multi-touch screen that supports finger touch and image auto rotation makes videos and photos leap to life, thanks also to the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3650 with 64MB of dedicated system memory that supports Microsoft DirectX 9. And high-definition support and two built-in stereo speakers with a built-in digital microphone complement the full audio power of this modern-day gadget.

For the always out-of-office professionals who do most of their work on the field, another productivity boost is being able to connect seamlessly to the Internet, thanks in large part to the Acer InviLink Nplify 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi Certified wireless LAN capability that supports Acer’s SignalUp wireless feature for quick and practically uninterrupted Web connection. And the fact that its battery juice lasts longer, Internet browsing — either for research or just for “killing time” — is an absolute joy.

Other productivity features are the Acer Crystal Eye HD webcams (front and rear) for audio or video recording or other important documentary needs, a micro SD card reader, a micro USB 2.0 port and a USB 2.0 port (in dock) for connecting other peripherals.
