Acer lance l'ordinateur portable Aspire Vero axé sur la durabilité

Aujourd'hui, Acer America announced the Aspire Vero notebook, its first sustainability-focused product, is available tomorrow in North America and is one of Acer’s first products powered by Windows 11. Made from recycled materials, the Aspire Vero delivers on Acer’s Earthion mission to offer products that support a sustainable future. The new notebook pairs perfectly with Windows 11, which is designed to bring people closer to what they love by empowering their productivity and inspiring their creativity.

Designed to align with the core values of eco-minded consumers and EPEAT Silver-certified, the Aspire Vero meets a significant list of environmental and socially responsible criteria, including substance management, materials selection, product longevity, energy consumption, packaging, carbon footprint and corporate environmental performance and social responsibility. It’s made from 30 percent PCR plastic in the chassis, ce qui permet d'économiser environ 21 percent in C02 emissions and 50 percent PCR on the keyboard caps to reduce pollution from the production of virgin plastic and landfill trash. En plus, no paint is used on the surface of the chassis. Le nouveau logiciel VeroSense d'Acer offre aux utilisateurs la possibilité de sélectionner un mode d'utilisation optimisé pour l'efficacité énergétique et la durée de vie de la batterie.

The Aspire Vero’s 100% recyclable packaging earned it a 2021 Red Dot Award for Brand & Communication Design. The laptop protective bag and keyboard are comprised of 100 percent recycled plastic and the protective carton box includes up to 85 pourcentage de matériaux recyclés. En plus, Acer cooperates with vendors to encourage the replacement of all plastic bags with paper adapter protection sleeves. Acer even designed the box remnants to fold into a stable computer stand with multiple customizable angles and options for daily use.

With a unique, eco-iconic look, the Aspire Vero dispels the myth that green designs have to be boring. The Aspire Vero sports a distinct, environmentally-friendly look with a neutral grey cover and yellow pigment dots. The keyboard design is meant to reinforce eco ideals with the R and E keys standing out in yellow based on the concepts (Passez en revue, Rethink, Recycle and Reduce). It is held together by easily-accessible, standardized screws for a simpler disassembly process if and when a hardware upgrade or repair is required. Additionally, stickers with eco-friendly statements and made from 85 percent recycled paper come bundled with the notebook. Customers can apply them for an even more customized look.

Behind the Aspire Vero’s appealing aesthetics are impressive features. Offering up to the latest 11th Gen Intel Core i7 processor with Intel Iris Xe graphics lets it power through daily productivity tasks and more, while up to 512 GB of M.2 SSD storage provides plenty of space to store music, movies and files. The 15.6-inch FHD IPS display provides clear visuals, while AI noise suppression offers clarity during video calls.
