Acer today announced the Acer Vero 16 (V16-I71 / V16-I71T), a premium laptop that incorporates purposefully sourced materials and significant repairability without compromising performance. Its design makes the device easier to repair and upgrade, while the chassis leverages recycled materials and low-carbon aluminium. Powered by Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors, the Acer Vero 16 is a Copilot+ PC that delivers responsive performance and advanced on-device AI features for productivity, content creation, and entertainment.

"Sustainability should be built into every stage of a product's lifecycle—from raw materials all the way to packaging," said James Lin, General Manager, Notebooks, Acer Inc. "The Acer Vero 16 embodies this philosophy through its thoughtfully sourced materials and repairability-driven design."

The fourth-generation Vero consumer laptop features a chassis with 50% post-industrial recycled aluminium and 50% low-carbon aluminium, plus 60% post-consumer recycled plastic in the bottom cover. It introduces a 4R design approach adding repairability, with tool-free access to internal components, a user-replaceable battery and SSD, and detachable hinges.

The Acer Vero 16 is powered by up to an Intel Core Ultra X9 388H processor with up to 180 platform TOPS, up to 32 GB of LPDDR5x memory, and up to 512 GB of SSD storage. Configurations include up to a 16-inch 3K OLED WQXGA+ display.
