Acer Chromebook Vero 514
With the new Chromebook Vero 514 Acer wants to attract customers who care about the durability of the product. For example, the packaging of the Chromebook Vero 514 is made of 90 percent recycled paper. You can also fold them out afterwards into a simple laptop stand.
The housing of the device is made of 30 percent recycled plastic and the keyboard consists of 50 percent recycled material. Still, Acer states that the Chromebook is also made with sturdiness in mind. It therefore meets the MIL-STD 810H standard, and can survive a fall of up to 122 centimeters in height.
But of course the specifications also continue to play a role. The Chromebook Vero 514 has a 14-inch Full HD touchscreen with a brightness of 300 nits. The panel is non-reflective and it is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass. The device also has an HD webcam that is hidden in the fine screen edges.
Intel Core processors and ports
The Chromebook Vero 514 comes in several variants, but all of them have a 12th generation Intel Core processor. The battery lasts for 10 hours, but after half an hour of charging, the Chromebook is already half charged. In addition, the Chromebook is equipped with a WiFi 6E modem and there are also various connection options. It comes with 2 USB-C ports, 1 USB-A port and an HDMI connection. Acer has not yet announced anything about the price and availability in the Netherlands and Belgium. We have asked the company for more clarity.
In May, Lenovo also announced its new ThinkPad C14 Chromebook, which has a strong focus on productivity. Earlier this year, Acer also proposed a Chromebook tablet, which comes with a stylus and a keyboard accessory. What do you think of the durable Chromebook Vero 514? Let us know in the comments.
