Acer simply announced ConceptD, the agencyβs new logo of top-class laptops that are particularly designed for creators. The company basically took its gaming laptops and turned them into extra centered gadgets for such things as expert video enhancing an example. To kick matters off, Acer is pronouncing a trio of ConceptD laptops: concept 9, the ConceptD7, and the ConceptD five.
Concept 9 is the flagship of the road, and Acer says itβs mainly designed for drawing and three-D work. It functions a reworking 17.3-inch 4K display with an Ezel Aero Hinge (just like the only featured on Acerβs Predator Triton 900 gaming PC) and integrated Wacom pen assist.
The ConceptD nine isnβt skimping on specs, either: this is largely an Acer gaming PC, minus the dragons, with a 9th Gen Intel Core i9 processor, as much as 32GB of RAM, an RTX 2080 GPU, and either 512GB or 1TB of NVMe SSD storage. Acer is likewise making use of its revel in with gaming laptops here in a huge way. Concept 9 makes use of the identical 3-d Aeroblade lovers as the gaming lineup, as an instance.
The concept 7 is a large smaller, with a 15.6-inch 4K panel, and slightly less effective specifications. Itβs powered by using a 9th Gen Core i7 processor and either an RTX 2080 Max-Q GPU or an RTX 2060, despite the fact that garage and RAM options are on par with the concept nine. Itβs also more of a conventional pc form issue, so it lacks the convertible display screen and pen help that the larger ConceptD nine gives.
Finally, thereβs the concept 5. Itβs the lowest of the road in phrases of specs (and presumably, fee), however, itβs still a quite powerful computer in its very own right. Like the concept 7, it additionally has a 4K 15.6-inch panel, however, it bumps things all the way down to eighth Gen Core i7 and Core i5 processors with onboard AMD Radeon RX Vega M snapshots. RAM is limited to either 16GB or 8GB, with garage alternatives inclusive of 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB SSDs. Itβs also the smallest and lightest of the three ConceptD laptops.
In my brief time with the ConceptD machines, there are loads to love. Theyβre very an awful lot laptops which are eschewing the race to the bottom for length and weight thatβs ruled the last few years of the computer market, and whilst lots goes to depend upon what Acer costs those at, the idea of getting a pinnacle-notch portable laptop that doesnβt must be festooned in sparkling lighting and flaming skulls is an appealing one.
Acer has but to announce pricing or launch statistics for any of the ConceptD machines, however with any luck weβll pay attention extra inside the near destiny.
