Just a few hours after the announcement of the new 8th generation Intel Core processors, the first products to integrate them. Among them is the new Acer Nitro 5 Spin, a handheld computer for gamers ready to compromise, called ” casual gamers “.
The new handset adopts a black aluminum body with red inserts, an advanced hinge that rotates the 360 ° display (so we’re talking about a convertible), a backlit keypad combined with a large trackpad, dedicated subwoofer speakers, and a 15.6-inch Full HD IPS display.
Convertible design gives the product great versatility, even for gaming sessions with external controllers or streaming Xbox video games. The autonomy, according to the license plate data, is about 10 hours (probably not in gaming), for a product that is mainly aimed at video game enthusiasts who do not require much computing power on the chart, as Acer – Dota2, Overwatch, League of Legends. The integrated GPU is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX1050 equipped with dedicated VRAM GDDR5.
The handset comes with PCI-E platform SSDs up to 512 GB and Wi-Fi 802.11ac MU-MIMO connectivity. Among the doors available on the body are USB 3.0, USB 2.0, a USB card reader, HDMI and a 3.5 mm headphone jack for headphones and any microphone.
This allows you to access the operating system and all of its data and apps in a simple way, by touching the sensor with your fingers and increasing overall device security.
With the new Acer laptop, it continues to push on a niche market, but very interesting: that of low-cost gaming notebooks. Acer Nitro 5 Spin is offered at a basic price of $999 on the market.
