Priced at €899, the 2024 Aspire 16 A16-51GM-77G2 pairs the low-power, current-gen Core 7 150U with the ageing RTX 2050. The laptop is meant to be a budget all-round multimedia laptop. In this review, we’ll discuss whether Acer manages to accomplish this goal.

The Acer Aspire 16 (A16-51GM) is a good budget offer. The device feels responsive for everyday tasks or officer usage thanks to the capable two-fan cooling that allows the CPU to boost to around 4.00 GHz for the P cores and 3.00 GHz for the E cores in short stress. The frequencies remain adequate even in medium and long loads. The RTX 2050 can sustain 40W in “Performance” mode and 39W in “Silent” mode. Not bad Acer, not bad! The noise during heave stress is moderate and the keyboard doesn’t feel scorching hot to the touch. Still, the back exhausts blow hot air directly at the bottom bezels of the screen that reach 55°C.The 1200p IPS display (LP160WU3-SPD2 (LGD079B) is good for the price class. That’s possible thanks to the 16:10 aspect ratio, the 335 nit max brightness, and the lack of PWM usage.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 Mobile: Mid range laptop graphics card based on the Turing architecture with raytracing features and 2,048 shaders (more than a RTX 2060) but only a small 64 Bit memory bus.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

79.1%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
