Acer laptop made of playback plastic.The design like the bottom of the sneakers is also unique and cute

The design is a key point.

ASPIRE VERO, a notebook PC created by ACER for an environment and for a "sustainable future".30 % of playback plastic is used for the housing, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by about 21 %.It's a product that plays a part of SGDS, which has been heard well these days.When it comes to plastic gadgets, it's easy to imagine a crisp and cheap design, but ASPIRE VERO has disappointed in a good way.By mixing the plastic, it has a very unique design, which is good again.The biggest feature is that it is an eco -product, but the design alone is enough.So, how to use?Let's take a look at Gizmodo.


Many gadget makers are working on new efforts to reduce electronic garbage and plastic garbage.One of the answers that can be replaced and easy to repair, such as Fairphone and Framework.On the other hand, ACER worked on ASPIRE VERO how much can mix recycled materials to new products.

Both eco and beauty

Acer is not the first notebook PC using playback plastic.In 2019, we announced the notebook "ELITE DRAGONFLY" with a speaker made by HP with a playback plastic.However, what I want to pay attention to in ASPIRE VERO is the high usage rate of using a re -plastic for 30 % of the chassis and 50 % of the key cap, rather than a part of the speaker.According to the ACER official, CO2 emissions have been reduced by about 21 %.In addition, the screen is 99%recycled, acquiring an EPEAT (ELECTRONIC PRODUCT ENVIRONMENTAL Assessment Tool).The boxes containing the product also use up to 85 % of recycled paper and be 100 % playback.Moreover, there is even a unique device that allows you to make a note stand in an empty box.

Although it is an eco -friendly initiative, I personally like it is the design of skipping the paint process and blowing yellow splashes instead of painting the whole chassis.The running shoes crossed my head the moment I saw this.It is a design that is likely to be on the shoe sole of sneakers.It is possible that the plastic, once a part of sneakers, became this computer ...It is not a modular type like a Framework computer, but all screws can be easily removed.In other words, if you want to upgrade RAM and storage, you can do it relatively easily.

I don't care about reducing electronic garbage!ASPIRE VERO is not just sustainable.Weight 3.97 pounds (about 1).8 kg), maximum thickness.7 inches (about 1).8 cm) and less than $ 1,000.Built -in fingerprint sensor compatible with Windows Hello.USB-C 3.2 ports x 1, USB-A 3.2 ports x 2, Ethernet, full -size HDMI 2.0 port, good port selection with earphone jack.

Also, since it is one model in the first tier of ACER's Windows 11 compatible terminal, there is no need to worry that the hard specs are Win 11.

If you give a personal negative point in terms of design, the deck part is a bit softer than your own taste, and the bezel is large (especially below the screen), contrary to the recent notebook design.

Good performance!The screen is normal

The specifications inside are the 11th generation Intel Core i7-1195G7 processor Intel IRIS XE graphics.The memory is 16GB and the storage capacity (NVME SSD) is 512GB.At the benchmark, it is almost the same as Samsung's Galaxy Book Pro, which is slightly lower than Microsoft's Surface Laptop 4.Game lovers (with some settings) can be played smoothly with Overwatch.However, it is not recommended to play top titles that require high graphic performance.

But to be honest, if you give priority to affordable priority without discrete graphics, I wonder if you should wait for the release of a $ 700 Core i5 model (scheduled to be released at the end of October).The reason for pushing the Core i5 model is not the $ 900 Core i7 model that we reviewed this time because the speakers and the screen are the only one.The speakers feel a little muffled, 15.The screen of 6 inches (1,920 x 1,080) is around 250 brightness.This is a low -price to medium -priced quality quality, and if a terminal that is nearly $ 1,000 is there?Because I think.

And web cams are also common.It's 720P, so it's not a problem for web meetings and video calls, but conversely, it's only used for web conferences.The numeric keypad is wonderful, but the keyboard and touchpad are used.Nothing or good points to note.

Battery & charging

The editorial department's battery test (continuous playback on WiFi) is 5 hours and 16 minutes.Framework was 5 hours and 3 minutes, MSI GP66 was 4 hours and 35 minutes, so it would not be bad, but it is one of the time because the average notebook is 8 hours and 6 minutes.If you use ACER energy -saving mode ECO & ECO+, it may take about 1 hour to 1.5 hours.

最大の難点は、充電プラグがバレルジャックなこと。現代においてUSB-Cでの充電は当たり前。電源喰いなパワフルマシンとか、何か明らかな理由なしでバレルは我慢できない! 2021年なんですから、ひとつの端末のためだけに充電器持ち歩いてる時代じゃないんです! あとさ…、バレルジャックって痛いんですよね、踏むと。レビュー期間中に、裸足で思いっきり踏んづけてしまいまして悶絶の痛み。レゴ踏むよりも痛いと思います。自分の不注意とはいえ、くそぅ…USB-C充電ならこんなことなかったのに!と思わずにはいられません(逆恨みです)

Sustainable & affordable price

ASPIRE Vero is not a premium machine.A screen and GPU is a normal terminal.However, it is very simple, so I think it is perfect for using the whole family and studying children.Port selection is good, performance is good, and Core i5 models have a reasonable price.Although it is not a high -end terminal aluminum chassis, ASPIRE VERO has a unique unique eco -designed.There is no doubt that it is a gentle terminal that considers the environment, though it is not solved the electronic garbage problem.
