Acer ConceptD 3 Pro CN315-71P in review: Mobile workstation with space for 3 drives

Acer's 15.6-inch workstation scores points with powerful hardware, good battery life, extensive upgrade options and a Pantone-certified Full HD display. The device doesn't have a Thunderbolt 3 port on board, though.

Acer ConceptD 5 CN515-51 laptop review: Kaby Lake G lightweight struggles with cost cutting

Acer ConceptD 5 CN515-51 laptop review: Kaby Lake G lightweight struggles with cost cutting

Acer leaves known paths with its ConceptD 5 CN515-51 to differentiate itself from the competition, with especially lightweight materials, Kaby Lake G with an integrated AMD GPU and a 4K UHD screen that covers a wider color gamut. At the same time, the Acer ConceptD CN515-51 is also cheaper than other multimedia laptops with a 15.6 inch screen. Unfortunately, the necessary cost cuts are showing up quite fast in this comprehensive review.
