While we have a whole range of laptops for business professionals, corporates and students, there are very few devices available for the people working on field. Acer launched two new rugged and robustly designed military-grade laptops from their Enduro lineup – the Acer Enduro N7 Rugged Notebook and Acer Enduro N3 Rugged Notebook.
Both of these devices have been designed to provide with enhanced durability, portability and improved performance for the professionals working on the field.
These two devices have been developed with specific features that caters to multiple needs of the people working on field. While the first responders might have a better use of the Acer Enduro N7, the event producers and outdoor hobbyists will find the Acer Enduro N3 a better option for them.
Acer Enduro N7 Rugged Notebook
The first of the two launches is the Acer Enduro N7 Rugged Notebook. This notebook has been developed and manufactured with shock-absorbing materials to enhance reliability and durability for the users, especially the first responders. This is also suited for field and industrial workers who are consistently working on site.
The device is MIL-810G and IP65 certified and has been designed to sustain the drops and the crash on the site of work. It can also withstand the ingress of the dust and water, further enhancing its overall durability.
The Enduro N7 is also equipped with a 14-inch FHD display with 700-nits brightness that allows crystal clear visibility, both inside and outside. But, that is not what steals the show. The main factor that makes this a rugged notebook is the battery life.
The device is developed with dual batteries, one of which is a hot swappable battery that supports 10 hours of battery life and the other one is a built-in bridge battery.
The device is also powered by the quad-core 8th Gen Intel Core i5 processor that allows you smoother performance and navigation without any glitch through the way.
It is also equipped with the hardware-level Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 that prevents unnecessary intrusion and keeps the device secured.
Acer Enduro N3 Rugged Notebook
Next up is the Acer Enduro N3 Rugged Notebook, one that has been designed with match up with the requirements of durability and portability of the user. This is a perfect option for the workers who are always mobile or working multiple or in between shifts including event managers, architects, etc.
Even this one comes with the MIL-STD 810G and IP53[3] certifications that make it resistant to falls and protects it against the risks of dust and scratches and water.
This thin and lightweight device weighs around 1.9 kg and is enforced with the Corning Gorilla Glass to protect the display from falls. The display also sports the unique water resistance feature called Aquafan.
The Enduro N3 is also equipped with all the much-needed security and management tools to ensure heightened security without further complaints. Not just that, the device also sports a 13-hour battery life, which is quite impressive, especially for the calibre of performance it packs in.
Unlike the prior one, this one sports a combination of 10th Gen. Intel Core i7 processor along with an optional NVIDIA GeForce MX230 discrete GPU for smoother graphics and visual experience.
It is also equipped with 1TB PCIe NVMe SSD for storage and 32GB RAM for memory for managing heavy workloads.
