As the post-90s generation has become the main force in the workplace, consumers have put forward more stringent requirements for "business notebooks" - in the past, business notebooks were just light and thin enough, while today's business notebooks must not only have a slim figure, but also have a large vision and strong performance motivation to meet the occasional gaming and entertainment needs of workplace users. Therefore, 14-inch + lightweight + performance + battery life + safety has become a must-have label for high-end business.
Today's experience product brought to you is the business representative who meets the above tags, from the latest TravelMate P614 launched by Acer . This product has a 14-inch field of view, a light body as light as 1.1kg, and a thin as 16.5mm. It uses the eighth-generation Core and MX250 independent graphics, and is also unique in many details.
Without further ado, let’s experience the characteristics of Acer TravelMate P614 together.
Ultra-light and thin design
Acer TravelMate P614 gives people the first impression of being thin. The thickness of this product is 16.5mm, and the 7mm screen frame compresses the width of the body to 230mm, and the weight is only 1.1kg (45Wh battery version)/1.19kg (60Wh battery version). You should know that the TravelMate P614 is a business notebook with a 14-inch screen, but its portability has surpassed many models that use 13.3-inch or even 11.6-inch.

0 The problem is here, will such a thin body cause the body strength to decrease? After all, business requires long-distance travel, and an accidental fall and bump may lead to irreversible accidents.
Please rest assured, Acer TravelMate P614's A, C and D sides are made of high-end magnesium alloy materials, which is characterized by lighter weight and sturdy and durable, thus ensuring the overall structural strength. At the same time, this product has passed the ultimate temperature, rain, humidity, vibration, 122cm high mechanical impact and dust protection test, which is enough to adapt to various harsh usage environments and still operate stably while resisting external forces.

A surface is integrated in a silver metal nameplate, adding a bright color to the monotonous top cover.
Acer TravelMate P614's speaker opening is located in the middle of the shaft. Whether it is open or the box cover will not be blocked by the screen area. In any state, it can ensure that the dual speakers and Waves Nx MaxxAudio technology are perfectly released.
Acer TravelMate P614's screen can be opened to 180 degrees. The unique high visual angle of the IPS screen allows customers in any direction to see the screen content clearly. The shaft of this product has passed 25,000 opening and closing tests, and it still maintains a smooth damping feeling for a long time.
The good news is that Acer TravelMate P614 is not a sunken shaft commonly used in thin and light notebooks. After opening the screen, it will not cover the heat dissipation air outlet located at the rear. It will be translated into no impact on heat dissipation. The detailed design similar to humanized is also reflected in many aspects.
For example, Acer TravelMate P614 has a physical switch for the camera, which can be turned off when not in use to prevent the risk of sneak shots caused by virus Trojans.

. Four matrix MICs are integrated on both sides of the camera. During video conferences, the sounds of all participants around can be accurately recorded. An infrared camera is hidden in the square hole on the right side of the camera, which is used to implement Windows Hello facial recognition function.
Acer TravelMate P614's boot key is located just above the middle of the keyboard, and a capacitive fingerprint recognition module is integrated on the surface. The instant when you press the power on with your hand, the fingerprint verification is completed (you need to press it for a little while), and the entire process of booting + login can be completed in one step.

Acer TravelMate P614 uses a white backlit keyboard, and the touchpad surface is also covered with a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass, which brings a smooth feel and improves wear resistance and scratch resistance. It can be used for a long time.
Right, this product also has NFC function (located in the upper right corner of the trackpad). Users with special needs can contact the merchant or manufacturer to customize it.
Rich expansion capabilities
Although Acer TravelMate P614 has a slim body, it does not sacrifice the expansion capabilities it should have. On the left and right of the body, the product provides a power jack, HDMI2.0, USB3.1 Gen 1, USB Type-C (supports Thunderbolt 3) and audio interfaces in turn. Among them, Thunderbolt 3 can be regarded as the "emperor" in the interface, which can be used to charge (using the 65W charger with the PD protocol), video output can also be connected to the docking station or external graphics card with countless interfaces.
Acer TravelMate P614 body provides Micro SD card reader, USB3.1 Gen1 (supports shutdown charging), RJ45 and laptop keyhole in turn. Among thin and light books, there are not many machines that can retain the RJ45 network cable interface, and it is not easy for TravelMate P614 to retain it under the premise of less than 17mm thickness.
Acer TravelMate P614 adopts the onboard 8GB DDR4 memory particle design, and an additional memory slot is retained, which can be equipped with a single 16GB memory to form a dual-channel memory mode up to 24GB.
Unfortunately, Acer TravelMate P614 has only a unique M.2 slot inside. If you want to upgrade to a larger SSD capacity, it means that the standard SSD can only be "laid off" and reinstalled the system. I hope Acer can provide 2 M.2 slots for the next generation of TravelMate P series models, so that users can expand and upgrade at any time.
Strong performance power
As a high-end business book, Acer TravelMate P614 uses Intel 's current strongest eighth-generation Core Whiskey Lake platform, with i5-8265U and i7-8565U processors available. Thanks to the 14nm++ process and higher turbo acceleration frequency, the i5-8265U has the strength to surpass the i7-8550U, and the i7-8565U is even more comparable to the i5-8300H, a 45W TDP processor in some tests! The evaluation machine obtained by
CFan is equipped with the eighth-generation Core i5-8265U, built-in 8GB DDR4 memory and 256GB PCIe SSD, and also armed the NVIDIA GeForce MX250 independent graphics card. This configuration should be the strongest standard for the choice of thin and light instinctive before Intel released the 10th generation Core.
Thanks to the NVIDIA GeForce MX250 independent graphics, Acer TravelMate P614 can easily be competent for lightweight professional graphics and video editing, and can perfectly control "League of Legends"-level games in your spare time, play "Fortnite" with frames of over 50FPS under 1080P+ medium-quality, and run "PUBG" smoothly at 720P+ low-quality.
Acer TravelMate P614 has a built-in wireless network card model of Intel Wireless-AC9560, which supports 2.4GHz/5GHz dual-band and 2×2 MU-MIMO technology. Even in a complex wireless environment, you can still experience high-speed and smooth networks. At the same time, this wireless network card also supports Bluetooth 5.0 technology, which is stable to adapt to various Bluetooth peripherals, making wireless transmission faster and more stable.
Acer TravelMate P614 adopts a single fan dual heat pipe heat dissipation module design. The CPU has a unique heat pipe, and the GPU is heat dissipated by dual heat pipes in parallel. In the dual-copy machine test of FurMark and AIDA64, the CPU temperature of TravelMate P614 can be stable at around 88 degrees Celsius, while the GPU temperature is about 83 degrees Celsius. At this time, its maximum CPU main frequency can be stable at around 2.07GHz, and the GPU core frequency can also continue to be accelerated at around 1518MHz. The overall heat dissipation performance is still very good.
Acer TravelMate P614 has a built-in extra large 60Wh battery, and the theoretical battery life can reach up to 20 hours (based on MM2014). In actual continuous office work, it should be possible to last for about 10 hours.
summary
Acer TravelMate P614 is a very balanced high-end business notebook. The thin body design allows it to accompany you to reduce your burden at any time. The magnesium aluminum alloy body is light and tough. The introduction of anti-peeping cameras, fingerprints and facial recognition functions further improves security. The Thunderbolt 3 interface gives unlimited expansion possibilities, and the 60Wh battery also lays a solid foundation for long-lasting battery life.
Right, this product is pre-installed with Windows 10 Professional Edition system by default. It can protect your business with advanced protection functions, help users complete more work anytime, anywhere, and can easily integrate with the IT infrastructure you already use and own. By the way, I would like to remind you that after January 14, 2020, Windows 7 computers will no longer receive security updates, so your old computers should also be upgraded to Windows 10 devices and Office 365 as soon as possible to achieve desktop modernization.
