 I tried to install new drivers from nvidia but they work only minutes and crash my pc over and over if I try to connect a second monitor. The laptop was beauty, I liked the touch screen and the pen and the style but definitely I can't use the graphics card or a second monitor. Amazon support contacted acer and they opened a case but I'm not in U.S and I still don't know if they can repair or change my defective pc in my country before return window closes

I'm trying to find a portable, 13-14 inch, touchscreen gaming laptop for running CAD/simulation software and games. It seems like the ASUS ROG Flow X13 is exactly what I am looking for, but they are out of stock literally everywhere. Is there something else comparable in terms of performance and portability, or should I just wait until I can find one for sale somewhere?

​

Thanks

Anything similar to an ASUS ROG Flow X13?

  But for all these drawbacks, I still absolutely love this laptop. The design, functionality of the pen and screen, the power to run large complex spreadsheets or even games in my spare time. The chassis is metal which is another plus for me, giving it a bit more durability in the harsh environment of a restaurant. It fills a niche role for me perfectly, so it may not be what you're looking for

Great for office productivity on the go

The ConceptD 7 Ezel is… well, in a word, it’s awesome. But you don’t need me to tell you that you don’t need to spend $4,000 to get an awesome device. If you want a touchscreen convertible with stylus support and can live without quite this much processing power, devices like the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 and the HP Spectre x360 15 are half the price of this device, more portable, and also have outstanding screens. The Spectre’s screen doesn’t literally fold over the keyboard, but it’ll work for many of the same use cases

Before ogling too much over this form factor, you might want to know how much it costs. The $2,499 base model comes with an Intel Core i7-10750H, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. For $2,999.99, you can bump the graphics up to a GeForce RTX 2070 and 2TB of storage

Wirecutter

The MacBook Air has a comfortable keyboard, good performance, and a reasonable amount of storage—things that haven’t always been true of previous MacBook Airs.

RTINGS

On the macOS side, the obvious choice is the Apple MacBook Air 13 (M1, 2020). Not only is it compact and lightweight, but its M1 processor packs more than enough power to handle general productivity tasks and even some light video editing and gaming. On top of that, it can do all of it while remaining completely silent because it's a fanless device, which is great if you're noise-sensitive or plan to use it in a quiet office or classroom. The battery lasts a little over 13 hours of light use, and even if you need to plug it in, its 30W charger is small and fits easily into most bags.

As you would expect, the build quality is outstanding. It's a solid piece of aluminum with no flex in the display or keyboard deck. The screen is bright, sharp, and colorful, and the keyboard isn't fatiguing to type on for extended periods. Its gigantic haptic touchpad tracks all movements and gestures well, and its webcam captures a clear image for video calls. The port selection could be better as it only has two USB-C ports and a headphone jack, though that's usually a tradeoff for such a compact form factor.

Other features include a fingerprint sensor built into the power button, which you can use to log in quickly, authorize purchases on the App Store, and auto-fill passwords saved on your iCloud account. As is typical with most thin and light laptops, the memory and storage aren't user-replaceable. Most people can get by with 8GB of RAM, though it may be worth getting more if you tend to have a lot of things running simultaneously. So, if you prefer macOS or are willing to give it a try, the MacBook Air is an easy recommendation.

The best laptop under $1,000 we've tested is the Apple MacBook Air 13 (M1, 2020). Even though it's a model from 2020 and there's a newer M2 MacBook Air, we still recommend the M1 MacBook Air because it's an incredible value. Its build quality beats anything in this price range, and it provides the best user experience with a sharp display, a comfortable keyboard, and a large and responsive haptic touchpad. It's very portable thanks to its thin and light design, and its battery lasts easily through a typical 8-hour school or workday. Apple's M1 SoC has enough processing power to handle light tasks like web browsing, text formatting, video playback, and even the occasional photo editing and gaming session.

There's a fingerprint sensor built into the power button so you can log in quickly and get to work. The webcam's video quality is excellent even though it's only 720p, and voices sound clear through the microphone. You don't need to worry about any loud fan noise since it's a fanless device. It only has two USB-C ports, so you'll likely need dongles or a dock, and unfortunately, it only supports one external display.

Consumer Reports

For Apple fans, the 13-inch MacBook Air combines decent specs, a lightweight frame, and good battery life in one compelling package.
The model we tested is equipped with an Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB of memory, and 256GB of solid-state storage. That's fine for ordinary tasks (browsing the web, editing office productivity documents, etc), but you may want to consider upgrading to an i5 processor if you're hoping to use the laptop for creative work such as photo or video editing.
If you've never owned a Mac before, you should also note that there's no touch screen option. Apple fans are used to that, but it may be a deal breaker for Windows folks.

The latest MacBook Air offers strong performance in a highly portable package. This is the base model, which has 8 gigabytes of memory and 256GB of solid state storage. It uses Apple’s new M1 processor, delivering not only fast performance but also up to 12.5 hours of battery life on a charge. The laptop weighs less than 3 pounds.CR’s test results: Apple MacBook Air 13-inch laptop

 It's a 16 by 10 aspect ratio or something that ever asks on every single Windows notebook review. The resolution here is excellent, especially with Mac Os scaling and the true tone which warms up the the colors a bit uh, depending on the time of day. Really pleasant for the eyes. We have glass here that you have to clean occasionally and I don't really care about the slightly chunkier bezels

 I gotta plug in an external amp because otherwise their internals mess up the audio signal on my blade. I love the new updated keyboard. It's fast to get used to just enough travel distance and a silent profile. The backlight function is now in the command center for manual control, but it's always smart enough to auto adjust anyway

 You've probably already seen a thousand reviews of this machine, so this is not a benchmark video, but if you haven't bought one yet, perhaps this video will nudge you in one direction or the other. My wife loves it. she says, uh, it fits in her purse. it doesn't hurt her back, It's light and small and it gets the job done all right

 The eight gigs is fine because I do all the heavy lifting on all my other machines, but as a portable, everything else but video production, this thing is awesome. All right guys. I hope you enjoyed this uh, long-term coverage. And yeah, subscribe if you haven't already

Apple M1 MacBook Air - Long Term User Review

Not only is it compact and lightweight, but its M1 processor packs more than enough power to handle general productivity tasks and even some light video editing and gaming.

The 7 Best Laptops - Spring 2022

The other thing the Air doesn’t have is a touchscreen. There’s nothing much more to say about it at this point; if Apple can add trackpad support to iPadOS, it can probably figure out touch support in macOS. But the company doesn’t seem interested in that, so I wouldn’t expect to see it happen anytime soon. At least the trackpad is great: it’s huge like on all modern MacBooks, but it still feels great to scroll and click on

The other big news is the processor selection, which consists of three special versions of Intel’s 10th-generation Y-series chips. Previous MacBook Airs offered but one anemic dual-core processor choice; now, you can spec an Air out with a 1.2GHz quad-core Core i7 if you wish.

But if you push the Air for a little while, things will get hot, and the system won’t allow the processor to get all the way up to 3.2GHz. In my tests with Cinebench, clock speed was capped at around 1.5GHz under sustained workloads

2GHz to get something done and then ramp it back down to 1.1GHz to preserve heat and battery life. This is a pretty normal strategy now.

All it needed was a totally new keyboard and faster processors

 There are also noticeable advantages in terms of the emissions, and especially the fan is much quieter with a slower maximum speed. This means the i3 MacBook Air is quieter for longer periods of time, even when you stress it.The MacBook Air with the dual-core i3 processor is the better device for basic workloads. The subjective performance impression is very good in these scenarios, the fan is quieter, and you can still enjoy the good display as well as the improved keyboard

The MacBook Air with the dual-core i3 processor is the better device for basic workloads. The subjective performance impression is very good in these scenarios, the fan is quieter, and you can still enjoy the good display as well as the improved keyboard.There are still drawbacks, because the overall level of performance is just very low. This would not be a huge problem, but why does Apple not manage to create a completely passively cooled device? A silent MacBook Air would be a great, but we have the suspicion that Apple limits the Air on purpose

Verdict – The Core i3 is the better choice for everyday tasks

In terms of its price, the entry level is particularly attractive, especially since there are always some good offers from vendors over the years. The additional charge for the octa-core GPU and 16 GB of RAM are not necessarily worthwhile, and the fast 8 GB of Unified RAM should be completely sufficient for most users. The 256-GB SSD represents more of a limitation, and the premiums for more storage space are very hefty. The additional charge for the MacBook Pro 13 with active cooling is also only worthwhile for very few users

 Buyers should find out in advance whether the software they use could run into trouble or whether there are alternatives. However, any limitations in the app selection from this are balanced by the numerous newly added iOS apps that will run perfectly thanks to the ARM chip. The new Apple chips celebrate a successful debut in the MacBook Air. With maturing software, probably&nbsp;no one will miss the Intel chips in the Mac&nbsp;in the future

 On the other hand, the emulation is fast enough to still get better results than when using the old entry-level processors from Intel. Unfortunately, not everything works perfectly yet. From stuttering interfaces and longer load times up to app crashes, there are many open problems. So you have to hope for native versions of the software or updates from Apple

 We can also reassure you about the surface temperatures, with only the internals getting very hot, as is typical for Apple. A huge advantage of the lack of a fan is the silent operation of the notebook, which is perfect in quiet surroundings. The new Apple M1 also has a positive effect on the battery life. With its energy-saving cores, it is able to save a lot of power in our WLAN battery test, and it can even last through a full work day at maximum display brightness

Verdict

 Well, this got me to assess what I will be using the machine for and for how long.  Storage can be added with external drives, slower, but it will let you scrape by. RAM is another story. When you constantly use up RAM, the system starts using "swap memory" where it uses the SSD to store temporary files

  The M1 model has blown me away with its speed and smooth running with a large number of apps open, including Final Cut & Logic Pro. Admittedly the 2017 MB was the bottom of the line and I suffered under frequent overheating issues with too many things open and the single C-port fiasco.  I likely would have gone with the 7 core GPU model if one had been in stock at the time of purchase, but I wanted 512 GB of SSD space, so I paid more by going with eh 8 core. From everything that I've seen, the lack of more RAM upgrades is not nearly as important as it was with the Intel x86 processors and is really only useful when you have many GPU intensive "Pro Apps" running at the same time

 Upgrading to the cheaper ($699+Upgrades) M1 Mac mini would be the cheapest way to get better performance for the Pro Apps, but I need a laptop, so... So, that is why I'm planning to return this machine and get one (likely the MacBook Pro M1), with 16 GB RAM & 1 TB SSD

 I traded in my (MNYH2LL/A) - 2017 12" Macbook with the Intel M3 processor, 256 GB SSD, 8 GB Ram. I kept my charging adapter & C-cable (which are both compatible with the M1 Late 2020 Macbook Air), so ended up with a $330 Apple Store instant credit towards the M1.  The M1 model has blown me away with its speed and smooth running with a large number of apps open, including Final Cut & Logic Pro. Admittedly the 2017 MB was the bottom of the line and I suffered under frequent overheating issues with too many things open and the single C-port fiasco

MAKE SURE YOU GET AS MUCH MEMORY & STORAGE AS YOU CAN AFFORD - SPECIAL ORDER IF NEED BE

 I didn't know enough to immerse myself in the (hard-to-find) Essentials Manual before touching the FORCE touchpad. Took a long time that to realize that "force" really meant FORCE (as in "smash it down" ) There is a System Preferences bypass, but I got embroiled in a DARK MODE display (black screen), missing cursor, and of course loss of Intel-chip based favorite apps which all took precedence over trying to find and read a possible Manual. Help menu did not help.
