Acer is updating their most sustainable laptop – the Acer Aspire Vero – with 12th Generation Intel Core processors. The update brings even more power and battery efficiency thanks to a change in the microarchitecture compared to the previous generation.
The newly refreshed Aspire Vero comes with options for the 12th Generation Intel Core i5 and Core i7 processors. Both come with Intel Xe Graphics built-in. They also feature 8GB of RAM with up to 512GB of SSD memory out of the box. This round, you’ll be able to upgrade to a maximum of 24GB of dual channel RAM.
Of course, the hallmark features of the Aspire Vero make a come back with the laptop featuring post consumer recycled plastics in the keycaps and cover as well as ocean bound plastics in the track pad. The trackpad of the new Aspire Vero uses a new surface treatment method which gives the laptop a glass-like feel for better user experience.
Acer is taking things up to another level with their new VeroSense application which comes pre-installed on all Vero products. The new application allows users to monitor their energy efficiency and device health. It goes without saying that the new VeroSense app also gives users the ability to kick the laptop into power saving mode which allows for better power efficiency.
Design-wise, the new Aspire Vero shares a lot in common with its predecessor. The laptop is designed to look and mirror the aesthetic of recycled products. The textured finish is also one of the more unique features of the laptop. It comes with the iconic mirrored “R” and “E” keycaps as well. The laptop also comes with the same recyclable packaging which won Acer the Red Dot Design Award in 2022.
