Reviews for the Acer Aspire Vero AV16-51P, Ultra 5 125U
Source: PC Mag
Overall, we can't stay mad at Acer's green laptop, as it consistently finds ways to incorporate more PCR into its system year after year. It also remains an effective productivity machine for well below $1,000—a feat that is becoming rarer by the day. However, despite being one of the more affordable entry points into Intel's latest CPU, the Vero's performance isn't stellar. It's not terrible either, which makes the Acer Aspire Vero 16 a fine purchase for those looking to handle work and school with some play on the side. The Acer Aspire 3 (A315-24P) is a smart place for the most cash-strapped shoppers, but our Editors' Choice remains the Asus Zenbook 14 OLED Touch (UM3406).

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.
