When you get the Acer Vero 16 out of its box, a few things can immediately strike you as a little strange. Not only are the R and E keys the wrong way around, but the whole thing feels... different. In an age of glass-backed phones and laptops made from aluminium this unpainted, matte plastic laptop appears a little strange.
It turns out to be a solid choice, however, and there are no problems with the laptop’s build quality, but what might turn potential users off is the laptop’s performance, which despite packing some of Intel’s latest technology can’t keep up with others when it comes to more demanding creative software. However, it could be a budget option for CAD/AutoCAD work, photo-editing, or for watching movies.
