If you prioritize vibrant colors and sharper images, the ASUS Vivobook Pro 14's OLED screen could enhance your viewing experience compared to the Acer Aspire Vero 15's IPS display. On the flip side, if storage and multitasking capabilities are more critical to you, the Acer offers a larger SSD and more RAM. The Acer is also equipped with a higher-end CPU, potentially offering better overall performance, especially for demanding applications. However, keep in mind that the ASUS is lighter and potentially more portable, and it may have a longer battery life, making it more suitable if you need a laptop for on-the-go use. Lastly, although the Acer is more expensive, it may justify its cost with its specs, so consider how much you're willing to invest in better performance and capacity against the benefits of portability and display quality.

The ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 has a better screen than the Acer Aspire Vero 15 for general use, gaming and AI, and engineering and design.
The Acer Aspire Vero's screen may not provide the crisp and vibrant visuals that users look for in general use and engineering/design tasks due to its average resolution and brightness levels, but it falls short for gaming and 3D due to its low refresh rate. On the other hand, the ASUS Vivobook Pro boasts a high-resolution screen that delivers sharp images and strong brightness, enhancing the experience for both everyday tasks and professional design work with its wider color gamut coverage. However, its screen still isn't ideal for gaming and 3D modeling because it doesn't offer the high refresh rates that these applications often require for smooth visuals.

The Acer Aspire Vero 15 and ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 are both only fair for gaming and AI.
The Acer Aspire Vero 15 has an adequate integrated GPU and a standard 60Hz refresh rate, making it suitable for casual gaming and basic 3D tasks, while the ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 also offers an adequate integrated GPU but a higher 90Hz refresh rate, which can provide a smoother experience in games and 3D applications; however, both may fall short for more demanding gaming and 3D rendering tasks that require more powerful graphics and faster processors. The screen quality of the ASUS is superior with its OLED screen showing more accurate colors and deeper contrasts, which can enhance visual work and entertainment, though the smaller screen size compared to the Acer may not be preferred by all users.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 to be good for engineering and design, while the Acer Aspire Vero 15 is only fair.
The Acer Aspire Vero 15 offers more RAM and a powerful Intel i7 processor for handling demanding engineering tasks, but the ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 provides an OLED screen with higher resolution and better color coverage, which is great for design work where screen quality is key; however, the ASUS has less RAM and a less powerful i5 processor in comparison, potentially limiting multitasking and computation-intensive tasks. Additionally, the ASUS is more portable and has higher quality speakers and keyboard, but it comes with less storage capacity, which could affect how much work data you can store locally.

"The Acer Aspire Vero is an eco-friendly Windows 11 laptop. Made with PCR plastic, the Acer Aspire Vero stands out from the midrange laptop pack with a funky, eco-friendly design. Powering Microsoft’s latest operating system is a Core i7 chip from Intel’s latest series, integrated Intel Xe graphics, and an ample 16GB of RAM. The laptop feels snappy, but its battery life disappoints. I also have a few quibbles with the display and keyboard, but they’re relatively minor. With a longer runtime, the Aspire Vero would earn a stronger recommendation for students or anyone looking for an eco-friendly, big-screen laptop."

"The Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED is a Pantone Validated laptop that packs a lot of processing power. The Asus VivoBook Pro 14 OLED's highlight is its outstanding display: Featuring a 3K resolution in the 16:10 format and nearly a 100% coverage of the Display P3 color space, the display hardly leaves anything to be desired. The Asus laptop also shows impeccable rates in terms of general system performance. Combined with long battery life, low noise emissions, and relatively good speakers, the laptop can be recommended to users who can accept compromises in terms of connectivity."
