Acer Extraordinary Go


The Acer TravelLite has just launched in India with a 12th-generation Intel Core i5 Processor and a 49Wh battery. The company has now launched a new thin and light laptop in China, called the ‘Extraordinary Go’. Similar to the first one, it is also powered by a 12th-generation Intel Core i5 processor but supports much faster charging and a larger battery capacity. So let’s take a look at what this new laptop has to offer. This laptop weighs only 1.49kg, equips a 58Wh battery, and comes with a 100W Gallium Nitride power adapter. According to the company, it offers a theoretical battery life of 8 hours. However, it will vary depending on the usage.

Upon opening the lid you’ll be looking at a 14-inch IPS panel with a 16:10 wide aspect ratio. It comes with a Full HD resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate. The panel also boasts a 45%NTSC color gamut rating, which is not recommended for video or photo editing. However, it should be okay for use cases that don’t require an accurate representation of color such as dealing with text. A highlight of this machine is the support for 180-degree opening and closing of the lid. It also features a Full HD camera and a backlit keyboard.

The Extraordinary Go equips the 12th generation Intel Core i5-12450H processor which comes with a 45W performance release. For cooling it boasts dual heat pipes and dual fans. You can also switch between three performance modes using Fn+F to find the perfect balance between performance and battery life based on your workflow. For wireless connectivity, it supports WiFi 6 and Bluetooth.

This laptop supports LPDDR5 high-speed memory paired with dual M.2 slots PCIe Gen4 high-speed SSDs. It comes pre-installed with 16GB 4800MHz memory.

This laptop comes in the Arctic Gray color and is currently available for pre-order in China for 2,999 Yuan (US$ 415).
