Detailed Spec and Review: https://laptopmedia.com/review/ac...o-av14-51/

Note: The Webcam is 1080p as per Acer Site and the above link. I think CostCo mentioning it as 720p is incorrect.

Really good deal. Good screen, 1080p webcam, 12th gen low powered Core i5 which is getting good battery life plus Intel wifi6e card. You cant do better at this price for sure plus you get 2 years warranty at Costco and another 2 years if paid with Costco Visa card?

Not to mention, Thunderbolt 4 port, almost unheard at this price point.

I know they are not the same price but is it worth spending $200 more if I am looking for something that would last longer for a high school student?

Daughter is looking for a laptop that can play roblox and similar types games as well as general 12 year old usage. Will this cut it?

Also any idea if this is available in-store?

Do you mean last longer physically?

I do appreciate the more squarish case design. I hate sloped cases of all types that try to shave incremental mm here and there to seem smaller.

Review and disassembly video:

Or, if you are too lazy to read:

They measured some pretty good contrast/low black levels for the display.

That's have worse display, no backlit keyboard, any biometric authentication and thunderbolt port. That doesn't even have a fully functional type-c port, just a data only one.

Quote from hamarabajaj :
Thunderbold uses USB protocol. Its just another Intel's proprietary interface and any intel processor will USB4.0 will have TBT4.
Thunderbolt 3 does not use USB protocol but it needs a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C interface to be implemented. It uses PCI-E over USB using PCIe Tunneling. Inprove your knowledge a bit. And another thing, it is not Intel propriertary anymore, since 2019. How do you think Apple M1 and and M2 SOC are using it? Before playing smart, you actually need to imrpve the knowledge a bit rather than throwing some jargons you collected from here and there.

And another thing. the processor supporting USB4 or Thunderbolt does not mean every laptop with those supported Processors can have that. They still need to implement the port physically and use PCIe Tunneling which costs money and increases the cost. Otherwise every Intel Processor based laptops at any price would have been having it,
