Introduced back in January at CES 2012, Acer announced today that its Aspire S5, the “world’s thinnest” ultrabook, will finally be available in the U.S. starting the last week of June for $1,400.
Though it feels like tech companies claim they have the “world’s thinnest” this or that every other week, the Aspire S5 is incredibly slim, measuring just 0.59 inch at its thickest point.
