So Far, So Meow
Aesthetic-wise, this Acer model sticks to a very familiar clamshell design that looks good and makes no bones about being pretty. Of course, being glossy on the outside can only mean fingerprint madness, but it does look good. Build-wise, the 5530G feels solid and sturdy, which is expected; after all the unit does weigh in at a cool 3kg. As far as entertainment functions go, the 5530G has what's needed, including Dolby Surround Sound, a 15.4-inch screen for viewing your videos, though it does lack a HD-capable optical drive due to budget constraints.
Everything else we've seen so far is pretty much standard stuff, so if you're expecting something radical, well, it's not happening. But that's really a good thing, as opposed to manufacturers introducing some newfangled function or design that doesn't really work that well when it comes to actual usage. And if you're one of those that like glowing but none too obtrusive bits, the Aspire 5530G also sports just that with its power button.
