Aspire® 4820 TimelineX

Building on the achievements of the previous generation of Timeline laptops, Acer® created the Aspire® TimelineX series in pursuit of the extreme: extreme performance, extreme battery life, extreme connectivity and extremely thin design. No need to compromise; with the Aspire TimelineX you can have it all.

The original Timeline series broke the 8-hour battery life barrier.* The Aspire® TimelineX matches that and adds extreme power straight out of the box.

Aspire® 4820 TimelineX configurations shown below are available at select retail outlets.

*Actual battery life varies by usage, settings and operating conditions. Nine-cell battery, available on select models, provides up to 11.5 hours life.
  • Extreme battery life
  • Charging up once with a TimelineX Series notebook frees you to work and play all day, with the six-cell battery providing up to eight hours of power.* You can multitask and enjoy brilliant HD multimedia longer than ever before. Acer PowerSmart technology automatically adjusts settings to maximize performance when you need it and prolong battery life.

    *Actual battery life varies by usage, settings and operating conditions. Nine-cell battery, available on select models, provides up to 11.5 hours life.
  • Extremely thin and light
  • The 14" Aspire® 4820 TimelineX is ideal for home- school- and office-based users on the move all day with demanding PC needs. Just 1” thin, this notebook is easy to carry, maneuver and store while you're on the go, yet still features full-size notebook usability with an easy-to-read display, numeric keypad and optical drive.
  • Extreme performance
  • The power of next-generation Intel® Core™ i5 or i3 processor technology speeds up multitasking performance so you can work faster and have more fun with less waiting. Improved responsiveness and efficient performance are a given with DDR3 memory, which delivers twice the speed of DDR2. A large-capacity hard drive provides generous storage for work and multimedia files.
  • HD multimedia enjoyment
  • Internet video, movies and pictures look fantastic on the 16:9 HD display. On top of that, you get the thrilling sound of third-generation Dolby® Home Theater® for a complete multimedia experience. If you want to take entertainment to the big screen, an HDMI™ port connects handily with HD peripheral displays.
  • Omnipresent connectivity
  • The latest communication technologies keep you in touch at all times. A WI-FI CERTIFIED™ network connection gets you online at wireless hotspots, and with the Acer® Crystal Eye webcam and built-in microphone you can engage in high-definition video chats. Bluetooth® is also included.

    *For a free copy of the standard limited warranty end-users should see a reseller where Acer products are sold or write to Acer America Corporation, Warranty Department, P.O. Box 6137, Temple, TX 76503. TFT displays commonly exhibit a small number of discolored dots, so-called “nonconforming pixels.” This phenomenon is a limitation of TFT LCD technology, not a product defect and, as such, is not covered by the limited warranty or by the upgrade programs.
