Acer has released one of its thinnest laptops, the Acer Go Air, and it aims to compete with the MacBook Air.
The new Acer Go Air only weighs 0.9kg or around 2.2 lbs and is built with a magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis. This 14-inch laptop has an IPS screen with a 2240 x 1400 pixel resolution, 100% sRGB, 16:10 aspect ratio, DC Dimming, and a 180-degree hinge so the screen can be laid flat on a table.
Under the hood, it’s powered with either an Intel Core 5 210H or an Intel Core 7 240H processor, which can be paired with up to 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of SSD storage.
For connectivity, it’s got 3x USB-C ports, HDMI 2.0, and USB-A 3.2 Gen 1. We also have an ethernet port, albeit it only got WiFi 6 instead of the more dated WiFi 7.
The Acer Go Air is now listed in China with a starting price of CNY5,299 (~Php42,000) for the Intel Core 5 model and CNY5,699 (~Php45,200) for the Intel Core 7. International release details are yet to be announced.
