日本Acer TravelMate P6 (TMP614-53) review – it weighs a bit over a kilo and it has a good cooling
Design and construction
That’s a typical office device – minimal branding on the lid, rounded edges, and a dark color. The device is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy (only the bezels around the display are plastic).
This results in impressive dimensions. The profile is 16.9 mm and the device weighs just 1.1 kg! You can open the lid with a single hand but it’s spongy when we try to twist it. The base is much more solid and it flexes just a little bit in the zone below the keyboard deck.
As you can see, the bezels around the display are thin. The top one is a home of a Full HD Web camera with a privacy shutter.
You can also get the option IR model with an AI-powered noise-reduction and ToF Sensor for Windows Hello. The model offers User Sensing technology that will lock the screen when you aren’t in front of the device.
Because of the 180-degree hinge design, the device can lay fully flat on your desk.
The keyboard has a backlight and the keycaps have a surprisingly long key travel and clicky feedback. That’s a real achievement given the thin profile. The fingerprint reader is embedded in the Power button. The board is surrounded by two tall front-facing speakers with DTS Audio. The touchpad is for sure one of the best units that we have tested up to date. It has a Corning Gorilla Glass surface, it’s super smooth, and its accuracy is out of this world.
The bottom panel houses two long rubber feet, a battery reset pinhole, and a big ventilation grill. On its left side, you can see two small holes that are part of the so-called Acer Dust Defender system. The hot air is pushed through a vent on the back so yes, some amount of heat makes its way to the lower part of the display during heavy CPU load.
Ports
On the left, there are two Thunderbolt 4 connectors with DisplayPort and charging capabilities (65W) and an HDMI. On the other side, you’ll find a Kensington lock slot, a USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) port, an Audio combo jack, a MicroSD card reader, and a Nano SIM card slot (option).
