The Acer Aspire Vero 15 generally costs a bit more and offers more storage and RAM, which can mean better performance for intensive tasks, but has a lower battery capacity compared to the HP Envy x360. The HP is also a bit heavier and offers a touchscreen, which may be useful for creative tasks or presentations. The HP Envy x360 may provide longer battery life, making it more suitable for long days without access to power outlets. Both have similar-sized screens and resolution, but if you're looking for more screen real estate, the Acer's lack of a touchscreen could be a drawback. Consider the Acer for performance-intensive tasks and the HP for better portability and touchscreen functionality. Give Feedback

The Acer Aspire Vero 15 and the HP Envy x360 15" have similar screen quality.
For general use, both laptops have displays that offer sufficient clarity and brightness for activities like browsing, video calls, or office applications, but they might not be as vibrant or sharp as high-end models. In engineering and design tasks, while their color reproduction may meet the needs of hobbyists or light professional work, they lack the wide color gamuts necessary for precise color work critical in professional graphic design or video editing. When it comes to gaming and 3D applications, their screens are less suitable because of lower refresh rates that can result in less smooth visuals during fast-paced scenes or when rendering high-motion content.

The Acer Aspire Vero 15 and HP Envy x360 15" are both only fair for engineering and design.
The Acer Aspire Vero 15 is equipped with a higher-end CPU, more RAM, and better GPU which are crucial for demanding engineering software, whereas the HP Envy x360 15" offers a convertible design with touch capabilities but compromised computing power due to a less powerful processor and less RAM. While the Acer might be better suited for performance-intensive tasks, the HP can provide flexibility in usage and potentially better convenience for presentations or casual use due to its 2-in-1 design.

"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."

"Despite its good looks, stellar webcam and comfortable keyboard, the Envy x360 15 is hard to recommend because of its dim, 16:9 display. If the display isn't an issue for you, just be sure to wait for a good sale price. Otherwise, a more modern two-in-one with a 16:10 display such as the Dell Inspiron 16 2-in-1 or Lenovo Yoga 7i 16 provides a larger workspace without adding much to the size and weight of the system."
