Acer announced an update to the TravelMate P6 14 at Computex 2024, which is now available for purchase online. The new portable business laptop now features Intel Meteor Lake processors up to Core Ultra 7 with vPro Enterprise and a host of AI-powered features. Buyers can configure the TravelMate P614 with either a 2.8K OLED or an FHD+ IPS display.
Acer has refreshed its premium business laptop for professionals, the TravelMate P6 14, with Intel Meteor Lake processors, new OLED touchscreen options, and Wi-Fi 7. This year’s version is slightly heavier (1.19 kg) than its predecessor (1.09 kg).
According to Acer, the Intel Evo-certified TravelMate P614 is designed to “redefine” mobile work with built-in AI features including Copilot, PurifiedVoice with AI noise reduction, PurifiedView 2.0 for video conferencing, and Intel Unison for seamless connectivity with mobile and tablets. Acer’s TravelMate Sense app lets you manage various aspects of the laptop with the press of a dedicated keyboard shortcut.
The Acer LiveArt app can remove the background from photos of people, animals, and objects with the help of AI. It can also generate depth maps in 2D images. Computer-aided image generation from text is possible via GIMP and the Intel Stable Diffusion plugin.
The new TravelMate P6 14 is virtually identical to the version announced last year. The processor is upgraded to Intel’s Meteor Lake Core Ultra 7 with Intel vPro Enterprise. Options include the Core Ultra 7 165H, Core Ultra 7 155H, Core Ultra 5 135H, and the Core Ultra 5 125H.
Only the Core Ultra 7 165H and Core Ultra 5 135H support vPro Enterprise. These CPUs are paired with up to 32 GB of LPDDR5x memory and 1 TB of PCIe NVMe storage.
Acer continues to offer 2.8K OLED and IPS FHD+ options with this year’s TravelMate P614. The OLED panel delivers 100% DCI-P3 color coverage, 400 nits brightness, a 100,000:1 contrast ratio, an 84% screen-to-body ratio, and VESA HDR TrueBlack 500 certification. An OLED touch option is also available.
