Porsche Design and Acer have unveiled a metal and carbon-fibre notebook that is worth of the supercar maker.
The Porsche Design Acer Book RS laptop is machined out of a single slab of metal, then finished with 3K carbon fibre. Despite the stylings, the new laptop remains pretty slim – it measures just 16mm think and tips the scales just over 1 kilogramme.
Under the hood rock’s Intel’s latest Intel processor, and there is the option to include an Nvidia MX3540 graphics card for some extended media or low-powered gaming.
There is a 14-inch display up top with barely-there-bezels (it has a 90 per cent screen to body ratio). Acer claims it can last 15-hours on a single charge (but we’d love to test out those numbers) and it supports quick-chrage technology.
You get a Thunderbolt 4 port, USB-C and Wi-Fi 6. You also get a fingerprint scanner.
As with all Porsche Design products, this thing ain’t cheap. The laptop itself will be available in December for US$1,400. Porsche Design is also going to be releasing a travel bundle that will include a mousepad, mouse, carrying pouch and notebook case – all of which boast Porsche’s branding – for US$2,000.
