Acer is one of the world’s most popular PC brands. Recently, the company unveiled the Aspire 3, India’s first laptop powered by the Ryzen 5 7000 series chipset. Acer claims that the Aspire 3 combines multitasking and productivity into a neat, stylish package that is perfect for everyday performance.

The Aspire 3 has a compact design, with the laptop weighing in at merely 1.6 kilograms. It features a sleek metallic cover that adds to the attractiveness of the design. The laptop is only 18.9 mm thick while also having an additional 17 percent thermal capacity. Acer attributes this to a 78 percent increase in fan surface area, which prevents overheating. The Aspire 3 has a 15.6-inch FHD display equipped with Acer BlueLightShield to reduce the levels of blue light. Additionally, the company claims that its TNR solution enhances the quality of the camera images by blending noisy pixels into other frames, especially in low-light conditions.

As mentioned previously, Acer Aspire 3 is powered by the AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors with Radeon graphics. It is based on a 6nm Zen 2 architecture with up to 4 Cores and 8 threads, enhancing performance, audio and video streaming, and maximizing battery life. In terms of connectivity options, the laptop is equipped with a full-function USB Type-C port and an HDMI port. For wireless connectivity, the Aspire 3 has WiFi 6E as well. The company further claims that with PurifiedVoice, Acer’s AI can significantly reduce background noise for video calls on both sides, and the technology works with external microphones and headphones as well.

The Aspire 3 is priced at INR 47,990 (~$588), which places it in the same segment as other mid-range laptops. The laptop is available at Acer Exclusive Stores, Acer E-store, Vijay Sales, Amazon, and other stores across India.

Acer launches new Aspire 3 laptops powered by Intel Alder Lake-N CPUs

Intel’s Alder Lake-N processors will be used in a new Aspire 3 series model, according to Acer. Although Raptor Lake replaces Alder Lake processors for the most part, Intel displayed the Alder Lake-N series at CES 2023 as a low-power alternative to its new U- and P-series chips.

The new Aspire 3 is currently available from Acer in 14-inch and 15.6-inch sizes. The Core i3-N305 processor powers both devices, despite differences in size, keyboard design, and display type. For context, the Core i3-N305 has no P-cores, no Intel Hyper-Threading capability, and eight E-cores running at 3.8 GHz. The processor also features a UHD Graphics Xe 750 iGPU with 32 Execution Units and a 15 W TDP.

Acer adds 8 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, most likely LPDDR5-4800, to the processor. Both Aspire 3 variants include a 3-cell Li-Polymer battery that allows 45 W charging and 256 GB of NVMe SSD storage. The laptops will feature multiple ports including 1 x 3.5 mm jack, 1 x DC power-in, 1 x HDMI, 1 x Kensington lock slot, 2 x USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A, 1 x USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C.

Although Acer claims that the 15.6-inch variant features an RJ45 Ethernet connector, none of the marketing images show one. According to rumors, the larger model also comes with an IPS display, which should offer better viewing angles and color reproduction than the TN panel found in the 14-inch model. Acer has not yet confirmed any further display specs like peak brightness or color accuracy, although both are 1080p monitors with 16:9 aspect ratios. Naturally, the 15.6-inch is heavier and bigger than the 14-inch, but Acer has made use of the extra width to incorporate a dedicated number pad.

The Aspire 3 14 weighs 1.4 kg and measures 32.7 x 21.6 x 1.9 cm, which is just slightly less than the Aspire 13 15’s measurements of 36.3 x 23.9 x 1.9 cm and 1.7 kg. There isn’t much of a difference in their costs as Acer charges US$479.99 for the 14-inch model and US$499.99 for the 15.6-inch one.
