W700 sd card or not?! READ

sopaj96 — Mon, 10 Dec 2012 18:55:01 GMT

So I searched for w700 on acer website (sweden) and it pooped out a few diffrent...so I looked at the numbers an did so with the one Im going to buy... I found the right one 009 and I went to datasheets...and there it says that there actually is a sd card reader...but from what Ive heard there is no such thing...

Theories:

*Missprint(alot of them, not just in sweden)

*I heard that acer procides with acer cloud...maybe...just maybe it is just for a few special countries...so the countries that cant use that will get sd card on their acer w700 instead of acer cloud..

So can someone please sort this out as it is very confusing :/

Thanks in advance

Hello sopaj96, to my knowledge the W700 will not have an Micro SD card slot.

Also the specification sheet of 6821 variant (US model) and NT.L0EEK.002 (Europe) notes that there is a Micro-SD slot.
Also I found in some eshops a W700P model with SD card on specifications.

But why does it say that it has sd card?

Seems strange... someone really needs to verify this!

I belive it was a typo on some retailer specs. Im sure at this point there is not a SD card slot in the W700

What do you mean? Its not the retailers that wrote wrong...its on the official acer website :/ I just think it is strange if they wrote wrong on like 5 diffrent model names :/
Can anyone from acer actually tell us how it is?

The UK i3 model 100% states the device has an SD slot on the offical Acer website. It also states that the i5 doesn't

I put it down to a typo but guess i'll find out when mine arrives in 2 weeks

Now, in acer.co.uk both i3/i5 seems to have SD slot. I am 99.9% sure that some time ago the i3/NT.L0EEK.001 model didn't say anything aboud an sd card.
In US we have four models in the official site:
W700-6607: i3/64GB SSD/NO SD CARD READER

W700-6691: i5/64GB SSD/NO SD CARD READER

W700-6465: i5/128GB SSD/NO SD CARD READER

W700P-6821: i5/128GB SSD/WITH SD CARD READER

the last one, also has Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Solution, Keyboard(!) and touchpad(!!!). The last two I think is a mistake.

The interesting thing is that all previews (since October) say that the only real disadvantage is the lack of SD card reader... But these, on the other hand, had a thunderbold port, so they wasn't final products.

What is Tpm?
Maybe they decided that sd card is more necassary then thunderbolt hope so cuz I rather have sd card reader^^

TPM is a hardware based data encryption module.

I must admit that I am dissapointed from the fact that we have no official reply for a such an easy question. If they don't answer a simple question about the specifications of their product, in the official forum of their site, I am afraid that if we have any technical issue we are alone.... Shame on Acer!

^ I agree with you...shouldnt be so hard to answer with the fact that its shipping to most countries this month so the product is most certanly done :/ Mayne they answer quicker if it is a more important question but still... lets just keep this threas alive so that maybe someone from acer can confirm

Trusted Platform Module (TPM) . I've been playing with them for a while but it really takes a compliant HDD that supports encryption to be useful. I understand that Microsoft's BitLocker can use the TPM for accelleration. Personal experience is that it is a quick way to turn a compliant (only some are) HDD into a brick.

Acer...we are waiting for an answer

Re: W700 sd card or not?! READ

unforgiven — Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:40:46 GMT

It's the first time I cannot find details about the technical specifications of a product.

It's the first time I don't get an answer in an official forum.

It's the first time I don't find an email to make my question in the official site.

It's the first time I am looking for an Acer product and I cannot even find the release date...

Re: W700 sd card or not?! READ

sopaj96 — Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:44:05 GMT

I know what you mean... and its x-mas times now so I need to know if I should order now or else I might need to wait until late fabruary for the next shipping...

Re: W700 sd card or not?! READ

unforgiven — Thu, 13 Dec 2012 08:09:26 GMT

Me too... The great problem for me is that nobody says (or knows) when will they be available in Greece. But I started looking for other alternatives, like from Samsung, even they are more expensive. But at least they do exist...

Re: W700 sd card or not?! READ

sopaj96 — Thu, 13 Dec 2012 09:14:12 GMT

Yeah I know...but samsungs smart pc pro costs almost as much as two acer w700 with i5 here in sweden thats sooooo overpriced....I think Im going to order the the w700 with i5 today...hopefully I can get it the 17:th this month and then I can answer all these questions by my self...

In some stores the Ativ Pro costs about 1400 Euros without the extra keyboard, which is about 150 more euros.
And it has 64GB SSD only in Europe.
Here in Greece none is yet available...
That's a big shame that somebody has to buy the product to find the specifications...
