Hold up, you are apparently colour blind. And if you aren't you think that blue and cyan is equal to warm and hot while red and yellow are the colours of cool and cold. And I'm the idiot here? 😂

Quote from: hugh mungus on June 26, 2023, 13:31:01Okay but neither of those things answer why you'd even claim the marketing is switching between F and C when it clearly is just using C, unless you really want to make the case the Acer in this case actually operates only 12 degrees F above freezing under load.

Hm, but check the colours on the image. Cool/cold was never yellow/orange/red - not in Flir not in any other thermometer. Just check those images from the article, disregard numbers altogether, and say which one is colder:

• notebookcheck.net/fileadmin/Notebooks/Acer/Swift_Go_SFG16-71/Bild_2023_06_20_090313849.png
• notebookcheck.net/fileadmin/Notebooks/Acer/Swift_Go_SFG16-71/FLIR_20230523_041049_276_load.jpg

Then compare that with 87°C: i.redd.it/572ad393lf171.jpg

Which one is more similar to it?

And I'm not claiming anything because PR and marketing is bs almost always solely because they say the truth but completely twist it around so their "operating temperature" with 44°F/7°C is most likely just a laptop being booted up and immediately being measured for temps after spending some time in the fridge (like Asus is doing). What they claim on the other image is definitely not true for any powered-on-and-working device, lol, but then again neither 44.0°C looks all blue and cold like that.

Quote from: hugh mungus on June 26, 2023, 12:56:12Why would a German marketing page use Fahrenheit, let alone use it in one image and then switch to Celsius in the other?

Because when you type acer.com in your browser you get redirected to your local region (or the one where your VPN server is located if you use VPN) so it looks the same everywhere just in different languages; here is how it looks for me in Croatia: imgur.com/W3mxMQY

And because someone in Acer was probably too lazy to do the same image in both °F and °C.

Quote from: Neenyah on June 26, 2023, 05:20:58And, btw, that's 84.1°F on the image, so about 29°C. It's literally enough to watch colours and disregard numbers altogether to realize that the image is not in °C.

Ah yes this is Acer so 44°C is uncomfortable...

Quote...which reaches 44 °C. A rather uncomfortable temperature.

Meanwhile Air 15 is reaching higher but that's not problematic...

QuoteWe measured up to 45 °C during high load and gaming, which is of course noticeable with the fingers, but not problematic.

...but how could it be problematic, that's Apple 😍🤩
