Acer unveils Vero 16 sustainable laptop and Swift Air 14
Acer has introduced the Vero 16, a premium laptop designed with a focus on sustainability and reparability. The device utilizes recycled materials, including 50% post-industrial recycled aluminum and 60% post-consumer recycled plastic. It is powered by Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors and functions as a Copilot+ PC, featuring a 16-inch OLED display and AI-driven performance capabilities.
In a separate product update, the Acer Swift Air 14 has been reviewed as a premium budget Windows laptop priced at $699. The device is noted for its extensive connectivity, including Thunderbolt 4 ports, and a battery life exceeding 16 hours in testing. However, reviewers noted limitations in CPU and GPU performance, a relatively dim screen, and the presence of pre-installed bloatware.
