Acer unveils the new Acer Chromebook Vero 514 – the first Chromebook in its line of eco-conscious
Vero devices that reflects the company’s commitment to sustainability by offering
consumers and commercial customers more options that allow them to reduce their
ecological footprint. The new Acer Chromebook Vero 514 (CBV514-1H/T) features a
thoughtful design that takes the entire product lifespan into consideration,
since it is easy to upgrade, repair, disassemble and recycle. It also uses recycled
materials in most areas of the product including 30% post-consumer recycled
(PCR) plastic in the chassis and 50% PCR plastic in the keycaps, 100% ocean-bound
plastics on the touchpad surface and 90% recycled paper packaging.
Reduce, Reuse
and Recycle
The
new Acer Chromebook Vero 514 broadly integrates the use of PCR plastic with 30%
in its chassis and screen bezel, and 50% in the keycaps and speakers. In
addition, the Chromebook contributes to the reduction of plastic waste in
the ocean as it uses ocean-bound plastics in its internal fan housing and on
its OceanGlass™ touchpad, which provides a sleek, glass-like texture and
responsive tactile feeling.
The new Chromebook was especially designed for an extended product
lifespan to minimize environmental impact. Making repairs and upgrades to the
memory and storage are now simplified with the use of standard screws on the bottom
cover. The unique exterior features a paint-free chassis with a cobblestone
gray finish and a display panel which is 99% recyclable. The Acer Chromebook Vero
514 has a life-extending impact-resistant exterior that meets MIL-STD 810H[[i]] testing standards,
a reinforced design that protects it from drops as high as 122 cm (48 inches).
Acer Chromebook Vero 514 Delivers Strong Performance
Powered by the latest 12th Gen Intel® Core™
processors and featuring Intel® Iris® Xe graphics[[ii]], the Acer Chromebook
Vero 514 tackles collaboration, productivity and entertainment needs. The
fast-charging battery keeps customers powered longer throughout the day as the Chromebook
can charge up to 50% of its 10-hour battery life[iii] in just 30 minutes.
The 14-inch full HD anti-glare Corning Gorilla Glass display
– available on the touchscreen option – boasts 300 nits brightness and a wide
100% sRGB color range, providing a more vibrant and compelling viewing
experience. The Acer Chromebook Vero 514 sports a thin bezel design that delivers
an impressive 88% screen-to-body ratio. The full HD flare-reducing webcam and
DTS audio with Smart Amplifier provides high-quality video conferencing on the
new Chromebook.
Designed for creating and connecting, the Acer Chromebook
Vero 514 features fast and reliable Wi-Fi 6E and connects to a range of devices
and displays. It also provides charging capabilities through its port
selection, including two USB Type-C, USB 3.2 Type-A and HDMI.
Acer Chromebook Enterprise Vero 514
The Acer Chromebook Enterprise Vero 514 equips enterprise
users with various ChromeOS business capabilities, empowering employees at
green-minded organizations, call centers, healthcare organizations and other
businesses with greater operating efficiency and productivity. The Chromebook
Enterprise Vero 514 ships with the business capabilities of ChromeOS unlocked,
including advanced security, reporting and insights, scalable cloud-based
management and zero-touch enrollment.
Recyclable
Packaging Further Reduces Environmental Impact
The packaging uses recyclable material to help minimize
environmental waste. The box is made from 90% recycled paper, while the notebook bag
and keyboard sheet are made from 100% recycled plastic. The adapter sleeve is made
from paper, instead of using the traditional plastic bag. Once the Chromebook
is set up for use, the device’s inner packaging can be transformed into a multi-purpose
triangular laptop stand or be used for other household or office functions[[iv]].
Full line of
Eco-Minded Acer Vero products
The new Acer Chromebook Vero 514 is the latest
addition to Acer’s Vero line which includes Aspire Vero laptops, Veriton Vero
All-In-One, Vero monitors, Vero projector, and Vero branded accessories,
including a mouse and keyboard.
Acer Earthion
The Vero lineup of products was initiated under the Earthion initiative, Acer’s mission to leverage its strengths, supply
chain partners, customers and employees to develop innovative and integrated solutions
to help tackle environmental issues for a more sustainable future. Earthion’s
objectives include Acer’s RE100
commitment to source 100% renewable energy by 2035,
more eco-friendly product designs, and the reduction of Acer’s supply chain
carbon footprint.
