Acer is teaming up with Porsche Design on a new high-end “luxury†laptop, the Porsche Design Acer Book RS, which looks to combine Porsche Design’s product designs with Acer’s laptop know-how.
The partnership here is an important one, given that the last Porsche Design-branded laptop, the Porsche Design Book One (which the design studio developed on its own), had some key flaws caused by prioritizing style over functionality.
The Porsche Design Acer Book RS, on the other hand, looks like a more conventional laptop (albeit, one that’s still covered in carbon fiber).
Acer is also updating its Aspire 5 lineup with 11th Gen Intel processors, with the 14-inch, 15-inch, and 17-inch models all adding Intel’s latest laptop chips as configuration options, along with the additional choice of adding discrete Nvidia GeForce MX350 or MX450 GPUs
Lastly, Acer is also refreshing its ConceptD 7 and ConceptD 7 Pro laptops for creators, adding Intel’s 10th Gen H-series laptop chips that it released earlier this year, although the design of the two models remains largely unchanged
