Wow, heute seid ihr aber fleißig!

Nur dass ich das richtig verstanden habe: Acer, eine Marke die man mit "Consumer" verbindet wie wenige andere, schafft es ein Business-Gerät mit gestecktem Speicher und 16:10 Bildschirm sowie P-Prozessor auf den Markt zu bringen und das auch noch zu einem vernünftigen Preis. Lenovo nicht ... Wow.

Again, a terrible keyboard with a completely mutilated numeric numpad and a power button inside - they ruin the laptop completely as office machine. Although there is enough space for a full-fledged numpad with the right redesign.

The terrible screen is another problem. The Acer Aspire 5 2022 already offered excellent 2.5k screens with multi-row backlighting and high contrast. I confirm this, because tested them personally. The stupidity of marketers is that they brought down sales of their own A517-57 series for a simple reason, although there is a full-fledged keyboard (but again there is no dedicated power button on the case), they are sold only with a poor 45-46% NTSC obsolete fhd panels, while the 15.6" model is sold with a deluxe 2.5k. This is complete idiocy. In addition, 17.3 due to the volume of the case - you can significantly increase the weight of the radiators and the size of the coolers, reducing the noise.

I do not believe in this level of performance i5 at PL1 is 35W. At 40W, maybe...

The laptop is noisy even in an office load, which is obvious - bad and light heat pipes and radiators, small coolers in diameter.

For a laptop for 1300 euros, there should be 2.5, and preferably 5Gb / s RJ45. It's a business series, damn it! Its task is to connect quickly to the NAS and office network! In the yard is not 2003, but 2023!

The price of 1300 euros is simply ridiculous - we have an Aspire 5 2022 with a 2.5k screen and an i5 1235U 16/512 for 750 euros. The red price for it is 1000 euros with a 3-year warranty and 850 euros if the warranty is 1 year outside the EU.

Acer marketers, if you have any sense left - listen to me - make 16/18" 16:10 models with 4k@120 panels (which are easily switched from battery to fhd / 60Hz mode and have a real response to B2W / G2G no more than 7ms) with a normal full-fledged keyboard with a full numpad (key travel of at least 1.8mm with normal tactile feedback!) And a power button separate from the keyboard and of course RJ45 for 5Gb / s at the same price. Improve the cooling system. Be sure to leave the power supply with a round angled plug ( or usb-c, but behind!).
And of course, keep in mind that the majority of the population is right-handed - therefore, the audio jack should be either on the left or should be (this is much better) - 2 jacks - on the left and right, which is convenient for both right-handers and left-handers, and 2 jacks cost a penny, all codecs have long been multi-channel. That will also allow you to quickly build a kind of multi-channel sound from 4 speakers on the road or as a reserve for the main socket if it suddenly breaks.

All these improvements do not require significant development, everything is already done for you and a significant increase in cost.

And sales increase by an order of magnitude at the same price of 1100-1300 euros. Because such options are very popular as versatile laptops for work and play. Especially if you have a TB4 laptop with an eGPU, if someone needs games at home.
