Acer Aspire P3

As mentioned previously, Acer Malaysia is about to launch couple of new notebooks today and one of them is the Acer Aspire P3. The 11.6-inch convertible Ultrabook will be available from today onwards and will come with either Intel Core i3 or Intel Pentium processors.

The price tag for the device has been set at RM 1,999 for the Core i3 model while the Pentium-based unit is priced at RM 1,799. Stay tuned for our hands-on with it coming your way very soon but for the meantime, check out the specifications sheet of the new Acer Aspire P3 right after the jump.

1. Peel the plastic strip on the back off to access two screws.
2. After taking them out, you can gently push the screen out so you can get a small screwdriver or something in. I worked my way around the screen with two of them, until you can pop it out.
3. Then you disconnect the top cable from the screen (windows key is bottom). Now you can see the whole motherboard
4. You have to unscrew everything and take the motherboard out to get at the ssd underneath.
5. There was one more cable by the hdmi port I had to disconnect to get it to pop out high enough to pop the new ssd in.
