Choose the Acer Aspire Vero 15 for basic tasks and if you prefer a lower price and slightly longer battery life. The Razer Blade 15, on the other hand, is superior for gaming, 3D modeling, and engineering software due to its more powerful graphics card, higher resolution and refresh rate display, and better build quality, but it is more expensive and has a shorter battery life. The Razer Blade is also slightly lighter and has a more gamer-oriented design, with an RGB keyboard, while the Vero 15 has a more traditional appearance and a white backlit keyboard. Give Feedback

The Razer Blade 15 has a better screen than the Acer Aspire Vero 15 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
For general use, the Acer Aspire Vero 15's screen provides satisfactory clarity and brightness suitable for daily tasks, while the Razer Blade 15 offers a much crisper and brighter display that enhances user experience. When it comes to engineering and design work, the Acer's screen lacks the wide color gamut necessary for precise color work, whereas the Razer Blade 15's screen covers a larger spectrum, making it better for professional color grading and detailed design tasks. However, both the Acer Aspire Vero 15 and Razer Blade 15 fall short for gaming and 3D applications as they have a lower refresh rate, which can lead to less fluid motion and slower response times in fast-paced visual environments.

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 2022 Blade 15 offers roughly 15 to 25 percent faster graphics performance and 20 percent faster CPU performance over last year's Core i7-11800H and RTX 3080 model. Thankfully, the system doesn't need to run noticeably louder or warmer to achieve faster results, but both power consumption and battery life take a hit. The higher consumption in particular appears to be a trend amongst many 12th gen Core laptops including the Schenker Uniwill Technology GM7AG8P or MSI Vector GP66 when compared to their previous generation counterparts. We're also glad to not see below-average CPU performance which was the case for the 10th gen Core i7-10875H model."
