Good: The camera has a mechanical shutter. There are problems with color accuracy: Colors deviate significantly from the target. The webcam (0.9 MP) generates images in a maximum resolution of 1,280x720 pixels.

Furthermore, Acer doesn't exclusively use USB-C there's also a USB-A port (USB 3.2 Gen 1). The possibility to connect the power adapter, monitor, and/or docking solution on either side would be an advantage for a mobile device.

After removing the latter, the battery is left inside the case without anything to hold it in place.Ī pity: The two Thunderbolt 4 ports (USB-C Power Delivery, DisplayPort) as well as the third video output (HDMI) are on the same side of the case. Caution: The battery is only held in place by the screws of the bottom cover. Both the battery and the rest of the hardware are accessible after removing the bottom cover.

A maximum opening angle of 180 degrees allows the display to be folded down completely towards the surface. The gray case's build quality is good, but it lacks rigidity: The base unit (plastic) and lid (metal) can be twisted too easily.
