That's why we were heartened to see the effort that Acer put into its suite of software.

That last measurement is on the border of what we consider uncomfortable.Īs any tablet maker knows, it's the quality of the software that determines how useful a touch-enabled device will be.

The Iconia's 1.3-megapixel webcam was excellent capable of capturing video at resolutions up to 1280 x 1024, it accurately recorded our skin tones, and even picked up the flecks of brown in our hazel eyes.Īfter playing a Hulu video for 15 minutes at full screen on the Iconia 6120, the area around the virtual touchpad measured 87 degrees Fahrenheit, the space between the G and H keys was 90 degrees, and the middle of the underside was 95 degrees. On the right is a USB 3.0 port, Ethernet, VGA, headphone and mic (which doubles as an S/PDIF port), and a Kensington lock slot. On the left side of the Iconia 6120 are two USB 2.0 ports, as well as HDMI. However, the mid and high range were very muddy. Speakers located on the underside of the Iconia 6120 pumped out a fair amount of volume, and there was a respectable amount of bass. Interestingly, given all that we could do with the lower touchscreen, we didn't find ourselves using the upper touchscreen much at all. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but when you consider that the display can tilt back 180 degrees to lie flat on a table, it becomes an issue.īoth capacitive touchscreens were very responsive, interpreting our finger gestures accurately. Horizontal viewing angles were good enough so that three people would be able to comfortably see the screen, but vertical viewing angles were quite narrow. Colors were somewhat muted while watching the trailer for Captain America, the red, white, and blue of the uniform didn't really pop. Both screens have a glossy finish, but that only proved to be an issue with the upper display, as its vertical orientation reflected more lights. The fingerprint-resistant coating helped somewhat, but you'll want to keep a cloth handy. The dual 14-inch (1366 x 768) displays on the Iconia 6120 are made out of the more durable Gorilla Glass. There are two virtual mouse buttons below, but considering the whole thing is a touchscreen, why not just make it a virtual clickpad, à la an Apple MacBook? The virtual touchpad was a smallish 2.5 x 2.1 inches, but we were able to use it as easily as a real touchpad. When we scrawled "The Quick Brown Fox," for example, it ended up as "The quick brunet." We found this method to be much less accurate. Overall, we made many more mistakes compared to a traditional keyboard, but it worked.Īn icon in the upper left also lets you switch to a notepad, where you can add text by writing with your finger. Any errant grazing of the screen, and we'd end up with a wrong letter. We had to be much more careful with what we did with our non-typing fingers, though. Proper support of the second screen was integrated in the 3.2-rc6 version of the Linux kernel, making it available for the 3.2 release in December 2011.While we weren't able to type as fast on the Iconia 6120 as with a real keyboard, we did manage a fairly quick rate after about half an hour of practice, so much so that a fair amount of this review was written using the virtual keyboard. Before that, one might need to disable the Kernel Mode Setting. The integrated GPU is well-supported starting with the 3.1 version of the Linux kernel. Initial reactions to the device were mixed, with both CNET and Engadget commenting positively on Iconia's touch-screen software, though the keyboard was criticized and some features were considered to be "perhaps an unnecessary visual gloss." The screens were said to be glossy and prone to glare, though clear in good conditions.
