If you value a brighter and more vibrant screen, longer battery life, and a more portable design, the Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 with its OLED touchscreen is a better option. On the other hand, if you need a larger screen and prefer a traditional laptop over a convertible design, the Acer Aspire Vero 15 would suit you. While both have similar storage and performance, the Acer may be slightly less expensive, but the Samsung offers a better build quality and is lighter, making it easier to carry around. Neither is suited for intensive gaming, but both can handle general use and less demanding engineering tasks well. Give Feedback

The Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 has a better screen than the Acer Aspire Vero 15 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The Acer Aspire Vero 15 has a decent balance of resolution and brightness suitable for everyday tasks, but it lacks the advanced color gamut support needed for precise engineering and design work, and its low refresh rate hinders the gaming and 3D experience. The Samsung Galaxy Book2 360's display offers vibrant colors and crisp visuals that are great for both general use and professional design tasks thanks to its superior color accuracy and resolution, yet it too falls short for gaming and 3D rendering due to a refresh rate that isn't high enough for those fast-paced applications.

The Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 and Acer Aspire Vero 15 are both only fair for gaming and AI.
The Acer Aspire Vero 15 and the Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 both have integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics, which can handle light gaming and some 3D tasks but might struggle with high-end gaming and intensive 3D workloads due to the shared memory with the CPU rather than having a dedicated GPU. While both offer 60Hz screen refresh rates which are standard for smooth visuals in general use, dedicated gaming laptops typically feature higher refresh rates for more fluid gaming experiences; the Acer has a larger screen size, and the Samsung has an OLED screen for better contrast and color depth.

"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."

"Samsung gets all the basics right with the Book2 360. Its convertible design works well in both laptop and tablet modes, yet still manages to be highly portable, with impressive battery life and eye-catching AMOLED display. The Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 measures just 12.9mm thick and weighs 1.16kg, making it one of the most affordable ultra-portables currently available. It’s sturdily built too, so it can cope with life on the road."
