Acer Vero 16
The Acer Vero 16 (V16-I71 / V16-I71T) is the fourth-generation Vero consumer laptop and a Windows 11 Copilot+ PC. It uses Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors, with configurations up to the Intel Core Ultra X9 processor 388H and up to 180 platform TOPS.
The laptop uses recycled and low-carbon materials in several parts of the chassis:
- Top and palm-rest covers: 50% post-industrial recycled (PIR) aluminum and 50% low-carbon aluminum
- Bottom cover: 60% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic
- Display bezels: 30% PCR plastic
Acer describes its repair approach as 4R: reduce, reuse, recycle, and repair. The Vero 16 has a visual repair guide engraved on the laptop and an access latch on the bottom cover for tool-free access to internal components. The battery and SSD are user-replaceable, while the hinge can be detached from the chassis. Removable I/O port covers on both sides simplify access for removal and repairs, and the laptop is designed to support processor upgrades for at least two generations.
The chassis is MIL-STD-810H certified and uses a solvent-free powder-coated finish. Acer says the finish reduces volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. The laptop ships in 100% recyclable packaging made from recycled materials.
The Vero 16 uses an energy-efficient hybrid architecture and has a 71 Wh battery. It can be configured with a 16-inch 3K OLED WQXGA+ display, up to 32 GB of LPDDR5x memory, and up to 512 GB of SSD storage.
