How long has it been since you paid attention to the laptop field? Thinking back on the gaming laptop I purchased before, it only had more than 3 hours of battery life, and I felt really helpless! With the advancement of technology, today's notebooks are not only thin and light, but also have excellent display effects, and have better battery life, even if they can be charged once a day. In fact, today's laptops are iteratively upgrading very quickly. Laptops with 11th generation Intel® Core™ processors feel like they are in the same year, and the 12th generation Core™ is coming under the "scorching sun". The Acer Phenomenal X high-performance thin and light notebook I want to share today is a new product equipped with the 12 generation Intel® Core™ processor. They say that electronic products should be bought new rather than used. This sentence is not wrong at all. After experience, I learned that the performance of notebooks with new processors has been greatly improved. With the independent NVIDIA GeForce RTX3050 graphics card, whether it is for office use or entertainment games, this Acer Extraordinary X performs with ease.
So what is this Acer Extraordinary X high-performance thin and light notebook like? After you read this sharing patiently, you will definitely have a comprehensive understanding.

Moreover, the left and right keys of the navigation keys are also enlarged, which is very convenient for daily use. In addition, you can switch between quiet, balanced and performance modes through the FN+F combination to meet your daily use needs.If you look carefully at , you will find that also has a row of heat dissipation holes at the hinge of the notebook, and the hip design can further improve the heat dissipation effect.
fingerprint unlocking can only be described in one word, fast, really fast!
The touchpad feels very warm and comfortable to the touch, and the silky-smooth control can be said to be quite smooth.
Finally, look at the icons on the C side, i7 icon, RTX icon, 2.2K logo, HDMI2.1, WIFI6 and so on. You can see how this notebook performs through these icons.
I just like the interface of this kind of notebook, it is comprehensive and easy to use. Unlike Apple notebook , alas! Every time I use it without the extension, will be blind. In terms of interfaces, Acer Phenomenal Efficiency, of course, based on the current comparison of these interfaces, there are not many scenarios where you will use the docking station. In addition, there is an HDMI interface and a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface that supports shutdown charging.
The right side is relatively simple, with a 2-in-1 audio interface, USB 3.2 Gen1 interface, charging/power-on indicator light and security lock hole. Although there is no SD card slot, these interfaces are sufficient for daily use.
The cooling system of a notebook is very important, and it is closely related to the service life of the notebook. Acer Extraordinary X adopts a three-dimensional cooling system, using a large-size fan + double copper tubes for heat dissipation, and a three-dimensional air duct design, which increases the heat dissipation efficiency by 8% and the air flow by 10%. With the support of a 100W high-power adapter, the full power of the dual-baked core can reach 50W, which is enough to maintain the continuous output of the powerful performance of the notebook.
is still the small hip design of Acer . After opening the notebook, you can see that the front end will be slightly raised, which can effectively improve the heat dissipation efficiency and the angle of use of the keyboard, further improve the standard of humanized design, and make users more comfortable. comfortable.
As far as the overall style of Acer Phenomenal X is concerned, it still favors business style. As a high-performance thin and light notebook, it can do many things. The most basic office work, making PPT, and editing pictures can be easily faced. If you are playing games, it is recommended to adjust the resolution to 1080P. In fact, even a 14-inch monitor will have a very clear display effect at 1080P. As for the RTX3050 graphics card, it is slightly insufficient at 2.2K resolution and high image quality settings. . Next, let’s take a look at the test results of this notebook.
