Considering your needs, if you prioritize a touch screen and longer battery life at a lower cost, the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 15" is a practical choice. However, for those who value higher performance due to more RAM, which enhances multitasking and demanding tasks, the Acer Aspire Vero 15 may be the better option, though it comes at a higher price and provides a shorter battery life. Both laptops have the same size screens and resolutions, and neither is designed for intensive gaming, but if general build quality is a factor, the Lenovo may have a slight edge. When it comes to portability, they are similar, although the Lenovo is known to manage heat better and has less fan noise. Give Feedback

PCWorld

Matt Elliott | October 2021
"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 Lenovo IdeaPad 5 is convincing due to its long battery life. The device scores points especially with its large battery and long battery runtimes combined with its low consumption. The CPU and GPU perform in the test as one would expect, and in line with what was familiar from the somewhat smaller 14-inch sister model, the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 14."
