Meet Acer Swift 5

My first event yesterday was so nice as we got to see live the launch of the new ACER Swift 5. It’s officially the lightest 15 inch notebook in the world, uses the latest 8th Gen Intel Core processor, Full HD, very narrow bezels, 15.6 inch display with an 87.6% screen to body ratio and a built in 4G LTE-A connection so you can do work even on the go.

Other display size options for these notebooks come in  13.3 inch and 14 inch varieties, come in Intel Core i7-8665U and Core i58265U processors, a long 10 hour battery life. It would have been impossible to have this in the past but as soon as design and engineering came in they now have a notebook that’s only 2.2 pounds but still have power and performance you want in a laptop computer that delivers fast and productivity.

They also introduced STARVR ONE that has natural of view, very near reality technology VR headset. They also have introduced the ACER OJO 500 which is the world’s first detachable headset so it would be hygienic, easy to clean and have amazing sound quality.

Aside from that, the Aspire z24 is an all in one machine. It’s borderless, edge to edge glass that is stunning and would be able yo accept voice commands and people can call them minimal in effort, maximum in convenience.

The Aspire 7 has an i7 processor, Radeon RXVEGAM Graphics, doesn’t need cooling, 1.5kg metal design and 4k narrow bezel display. ACER has also introduced the lightest in the past and they have found even better materials to make it lighter, thinner - but tougher. That’s the Swift 5. The secret? The materials. This has minimized the weight for over 35%, kept it at 15 inch in size. They also did the best thing to show that, lifting it up with one hand while on demo.

Gamer? Content creator? This might be the best notebook for you, check out leading computer shops and tech stores if you wish to have the latest from ACER!

Dell Philippines launches Thin, Sleek and Professional Vostro 5460 Laptop

A few days ago I was invited to the launch of Dell's latest laptop model the Dell Vostro 5460. It's a sleek very refined piece of hardware that screams power when scrutinized closely. It's specs alone would impress any ultrabook lover and for what its worth, the performance is also as solid as any computer that can even do heavy gaming because it's not your ordinary 14 inch portable hardware.

Mind you while this was being introduced and throughout the whole discussion about the Dell Vostro 5460 he was actually carrying it around the whole time. It's only 1.54 Kgs and one of the thinnest in its class at 19mm. It was intended for business use but is now going to be released in a consumer sector to give Philippine consumers a more powerful option other than the others that carry small specs. Dell also mentioned that this will be included in their line of laptops , PC's and ultrabooks that will be covered by the Dell Next Business Day On-Site Service. No other brand actually does that other than Dell worldwide!

For its processor, they are gearing towards Intel i3 and i5. They also come with packaged OS such as Windows 8 Home Starter 64bit, Home Basic 64bit, Home Premium 64bit or Windows 7 Professional with XP mode installed and the option of the 64bit version of Linux Ubuntu  already installed. Up to 6GB of memory supported because of its 1600MHz DDR3 SoDIMM and Intel Mobile HM77 chipset. The impressive Video Card that is perfect even or gaming carries Intel HD Graphics 3000 (GT2) and a 1GB nVidia GeForce GT630M.The 14 inch HiDef 1366x768 720p display would be the envy of your friends in the office or at home. Pretty cool for a small machine huh?

It only carries a 3 cell Lithium Ion battery at 48 - 50WHr at 65 Watts, Slim or 90 Watt Slim. It's the reason why the laptop only packs only small amount of temperature which some ultrabooks or laptops are so problematic about. It also has an HDMI port for usual reasons. It supports Gigabit Ethernet network rates plus b/g/n standard wireless connectivity.

For those who want to experience the best that Dell has to offer in this reasonably priced laptop computer line, you should be informed that it  comes in "Standard or Ultrabook" configurations. I suggest you take your time to know Dell Vostro 5460 because it's totally worth it!

Windows8 Touch Enabled DELL XPS12

Dell has been a recognized brand for hardware, specifically for laptop and desktop computers worldwide. This particular event I went to was the launch of something special, though not out of the ordinary they've revved up some of their former designs and got them on this new Dell XPS12.

Chris Papa the Country Manager for DELL says its another milestone to launch xp12 among their other great models soon. He says this too will come with services unprecedented in the Philippine territory because they will cover nationwide. They will also extend it to nearby Asian-Oceania countries so if you are frequent traverlers, you can take advantage of this awesome ultrabook which transforms from a laptop and into a tablet via a flick on its screen. The latest ultrabook is made slim, very powerful, and functions as a fully featured tablet. This is by the way their first touch enabled device on Windows8 platform. Though I'm not a fan of the OS they are gearing to take advantage of its full touch capabilities which other manufacturers haven't that much been really doing on their devices (well some do but that's another story). 

 Aside from that, the DELL XPS12 is one tough cookie. It doesn't look and feel tough but when I held it, structurally the swivel display does not look flimsy at all. As you flip the display over, you can close the lid and you can use the XPS12 as a tablet. Tried to change orientations but the Windows8 response wasn't that great. I don't quite know the gyro capabilities but it wasn't following that fast.

Alvin Go, Dell Philippines Product Manager showed how remarkable the device is. Made mostly of carbon fiber (one of the lightest in the market), its hinge is also machined aluminum so it's quite sturdy even if flipping transpires on the display. It's got a 100% SSD hard drive so data response is very fast. The 12.5 Full HD WLED and Corning gorilla glass just makes the display quite vivid for the video or photo connoisseur.

Then another big thing was announced! Support services for these models are now available for free nationwide and a couple more countries outside the Philippines. It means that no matter where you are, if you need help with your DELL equipment they can easily help you within 48 hours (that's if phone support won't be able to help you right off the bat!). This is world class On Site Service and is free for 1 year with notebooks and 3 years for high end PC's. 

Ricky Banaag, Country Manager of Intel boasts of better, longer battery life and faster processors for more models of Dell products. Intel also worked with brands that have ultrabooks on their line and receives positive feedback from consumers. The area of convertibles is gonna grow; and technology among all things will have to become well adaptive to what the consumer wants. It's quite nice to see these brands launching in places like Manila now. Be sure when you check out the stores, find out if DELL XPS12 would be the perfect powerful companion that would satisfy your gadget hunger. You don't have to stop what you're doing; this will surely change the conversation wherever, whenever.

 

 

Congratulations on this launch Dell! I am impressed!
