[Redaktion]

The Nitro V14 AI stands out from the crowd of gaming laptops not just due to its color scheme but also because of its small dimensions. Find out in our review whether the performance is still convincing or whether too many compromises have to be made.

If Acer can fit 2 SODIMM slots AND 2 2280 m.2 slots in a 14" class laptop WITH a dGPU, nobody else has any excuses anymore.

[Why AI in product name?]

I don't see what would justify the AI suffix in the product name:
- Only 16 GB VRAM (at least its upgradable, but this doesn't count)
- Only 8 GB VRAM
Nothing is special about this memory config, in fact this is quite low.

I guess it's the "AI 5 340' CPU' NPU, which nobody uses, ok.

Up to how many GB RAM can it be upgraded to? I don't thing it's 96 GB, but if it is, then the "AI" in the name would be justified.

This is actually so stupid..if at least it had something that would justify the AI in the name.

PS: It weights like 200-300 grams too many for a 14" laptop.

"nano" was abused, now "AI", tomorrow "God" in the names (combined with Pro X Plus Max Ultra, of course).
