Acer TravelMate Spin P4 Convertible

The Acer TravelMate Spin P4 (TMP414RN-51) is a business-class convertible that features Acer’s Antimicrobial 360 design. This involves coating high-touch surfaces like the case, keyboard or touchpad with an antimicrobial silver ion agent. Silver ions are highly reactive particles that drastically reduce the growth rate of microbes on contact.

The notebook also offers strong performance with up to an 11th-generation Intel Core i7 vPro processor and up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM, while up to 1TB of M.2 SSD storage provides ample space for all your data. With its spill-resistant keyboard and shock-absorbing corners, the notebook is not only ready for everyday use but also certified to MIL-STD 810H3 military standards.

The scratch-resistant 35.56 cm (14 inch) Full HD display made of antimicrobial Corning Gorilla Glass supports touch functions and can be rotated 360 degrees into laptop, stand, tent or tablet mode. To top it off, the notebook offers up to 13.5 hours of battery life and can be charged up to 80 percent in just one hour.

In terms of port diversity, the TravelMate Spin P4 is also rich in variants: An RJ45 Ethernet port, optional LTE support (eSIM & DSSA), a smartcard reader and a USB Type-C port with Thunderbolt 4 are offered. It is also equipped with all business-relevant security features, such as Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0, which enables logging in via fingerprint or Windows Hello.

Acer VE246Q: Anticrobial Monitor

The Acer VE246Q monitor features a 59.94-cm (23.6-inch) VA panel with Full HD resolution that is both environmentally and eye-friendly. The display supports wide viewing angles of 178 degrees and offers a contrast ratio of 100,000,000:1 for crisp images. Thanks to Acer’s Antimicrobial 360 design, the monitor’s recycled plastic case and cover glass are coated with a silver ion antimicrobial agent that provides a 99.9 percent reduction rate against a wide range of bacteria, according to JIS Z 2801 and ISO 22196 testing protocols.

In addition, the monitor is ENERGY STAR, TCO and EPEAT certified. Acer ComfyView enables a comfortable viewing experience by reducing glare and ambient light on the display, while Acer BlueLightShield reduces the emission of potentially harmful blue light.
