Acer Aspire Vero 15 (AV15-53P) review – environment-friendly device with great cooling


Temperatures and comfort, Battery Life

Max CPU load

In this test we use 100% on the CPU cores, monitoring their frequencies and chip temperature. The first column shows a computer’s reaction to a short load (2-10 seconds), the second column simulates a serious task (between 15 and 30 seconds), and the third column is a good indicator of how good the laptop is for long loads such as video rendering.

The cooling of the Acer Aspire Vero 15 (AV15-53P) is doing its job well. The optional Core i5-1335U can sustain impressively high clocks and power limits alongside low temperatures even in long periods of max CPU stress.

Comfort during combined load

The two fans are average audible in short and medium loads (in “Performance mode”). In longer stress, the processor frequencies are lower as well as the noise. In this scenario, the left part of the keyboard gets a bit warm but it doesn’t feel hot at all. For casual daily or office usage, the “Silent” profile offers a good balance between low noise and decent performance.

Battery

Now, we conduct the battery tests with the Windows Better performance setting turned on, screen brightness adjusted to 120 nits, and all other programs turned off except for the one we are testing the notebook with. This laptop has a 54.6Wh battery. It lasts for lasts for 12 hours and 30 minutes of Web browsing, or 9 hours and 5 minutes of video playback. That’s a very good result! To achieve that, you have to apply the “Balanced” preset in the Windows “Power & Battery” menu and select the “Normal mode” in the Acer Quick Access app.
