Acer has announced the launch of the Acer Aspire 5, powered by 12th gen Intel Core i5 processors and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050, with 4GB of DDR6 VRAM. The Aspire 5 is launching at Rs 62,990, making it an affordable option for those in the market for a gaming and multitasking laptop. The laptop is now available for purchase at store.acer.com, Amazon, and Croma.
Featuring the NVIDIA RTX 2050, the Acer Aspire 5 works with NVIDIA Optimus technology, which reportedly helps achieve improved battery life without sacrificing performance.
In terms of aesthetics, the Acer Aspire is a thin and light laptop, which doesn't stand out too much; it wouldn't look out of place in a professional environment. The Aspire intends to be your one-stop shop for all your multitasking needs, which is evident from the hardware packed within.
Additional specs include dual-channel DDR4 RAM, with support for up to 32GB of memory. For storage, you can have up to 2TB of expandable storage via expandable dual SSDs. The laptop features dual fans and dual copper thermal pipes to keep the laptop running cool. Even the keyboard features air inlets which suck air in to keep cool.
Coming to the display, the Acer Aspire 5 features a Full HD IPS display, with an 81.18 per cent screen-to-body ratio. Additional features include Acer Color Intelligence for dynamic colour optimisation and Acer BlueLightShield to prevent eye strain by reducing blue light.
The laptop also features a 720p webcam and a fingerprint reader which you can utilise for added security.
Coming to connectivity and ports, the Acer Aspire 5 features Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2 and a Thunderbolt 4 port as well. Additionally, you have three USB Type-A ports and one HDMI 2.0 port. The Thunderbolt 4 port is a stand-out port, allowing you to connect two 4K displays to the laptop. Great for your multitasking needs, not so much for gaming.
