Make sure to take a look at our full review of the Acer Aspire S5.

While 2012 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) doesn’t officially kick off until tomorrow, that hasn’t stopped Acer from unveiling the world’s thinnest Ultrabook with the Acer Aspire S5.

The ultra-thin laptop from Acer measures in at only 15mm at its thickest point and weighs in at a measly 1.35kg (less than 3 lbs). It features a 13.3-inch LCD screen and in keeping in line with the Ultrabook specs imposed by Intel, the S5 will also feature the unique Acer Green Instant On technology giving it fast boot and resume times, as well as Acer’s Always Connect software, which gives users the ability to manage all their multimedia and data, on all their devices, from any location.
