Acer TravelMate P6 Notebook - Some Questions to Ask

Acer has launched a series of thin and lightweight notebook, called TravelMateP6, which it says is ideal for using while travel.

360 Degrees Rotatable Gorilla Glass Monitor with Stylus

These notebook models are convertible and are fitted with Gorilla Glass on the monitor, which can be rotated 360 degrees to be used in different modes. They also sport a dockable Acer Active Stylus that works with Windows Ink for capturing notes and drawing.

Processor

TravelMate P6 notebook models have the 11th Gen Intel Core i7 vPro processors and up to 32 GB DDR4x memory. From there, a 1TB PCIe Gen3 x4 SSD using NVMe technology lets users keep all of their work in one place.

The notebook’s 14-inch, 16:10 FHD+ (1920 x 1200) display with narrow bezels provides extra screen space, allowing web pages, spreadsheets to be viewed with less scrolling. An IPS panel with 100% sRGB colour gamut coverage delivers accurate colour at up to 170 degree viewing angles—additionally, viewing angles can be limited to 90 degrees by enabling the built-in Acer PrivacyPanel. The keyboard is back-lit.

All the P6 models have 16.8 mm thickness and weigh between 1 kg and 1.1 kg.

The webcams have fingerprint reader and IR for quick and safe logins via Windows Hello. Built-in Acer User Sensing technology detects if someone is in front of the computer to either wake up or lock up the notebook and Windows Hello can recognise whether that person is the owner. For privacy, the system’s webcam can be physically shuttered when not in use. An integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 chip and Intel Active Management Technology from the Intel vPro platform facilitate secure authentication and safeguard company data.

The resellers should be prepared to respond to the following questions from the customers -

• What's the capture speed and resolution capacity of the webcam?
• How many USB ports and of what capacity do these notebooks have?
• Is 32 GB DDR4x enough for 1 TB storage and processing capacity?
• Is the RAM extendable?
• Why is PCIe Gen3 x4 SSD 3rd gen? Why isn't it 4th gen?
• Does it come with pre-installed OS?

It would help to get the responses to these queries while selling or buying these notebooks.
