iF Design Awards: the Acer TravelMate and Aspire series
Acer has added another set of accolades to its growing trophy cabinet, with multiple products recognized at the prestigious 2025 iF Design Awards. Among this year’s honorees in the computer category are the TravelMate P6 14 AI business laptop, the Aspire C Series All-in-One PCs, and the already-celebrated Aspire Vero 16 — which clinched its second iF Design Award after first winning in 2022.
The awards, which drew nearly 11,000 submissions reviewed by 131 design experts, evaluated products based on five pillars: idea, form, function, differentiation, and sustainability. Acer’s latest wins spotlight the brand’s ability to combine forward-thinking technology with meaningful design — particularly in the areas of AI integration and eco-conscious innovation, two of the strongest trends influencing product development today.
Aspire Vero 16: Eco-Tech Trailblazer
Leading the pack is the Aspire Vero 16, lauded as a milestone in sustainable computing. It’s the world’s first laptop with a chassis made from a unique blend of post-consumer recycled plastic and bio-based oyster shell material. Combining durability that meets U.S. MIL-STD810H military standards with an elegant natural grey finish flecked with yellow pigments, the Vero 16 merges eco-friendly design with powerful AI-driven performance, setting a new benchmark for green tech in the PC space.
Aspire C Series: Sleek, Smart, and AI-Ready
The Aspire C Series All-in-One PCs deliver a refined, minimalistic aesthetic with a 95% screen-to-body ratio and adjustable ErgoStand for ergonomic flexibility. Built for both home and office, these all-in-ones pair their clean design with next-gen processors capable of handling AI-powered tasks, positioning them as a smart, stylish solution for modern digital workspaces.
TravelMate P6 14 AI: Elite Mobility for Executives
Designed for professionals on the move, the TravelMate P6 14 AI is a sub-1 kg Copilot+ business laptop crafted from carbon fiber and magnesium for lightweight durability. Beyond its sleek frame, it boasts advanced AI tools, enterprise-grade security, long battery life, and a strong sustainability story, thanks to recyclable packaging and environmental certifications like EPEAT and TCO 9.
With these wins, Acer reinforces its position as a leader in blending intelligent design, AI innovation, and eco-responsibility, capturing the spirit of the evolving tech landscape.
