SAVE $320: As of Feb. 28, you can get the Acer Aspire Vero 16 (Intel Core Ultra 5 Series 1, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD) for just $379.99, down from $699.99. That's $320 off the list price.


You’d be hard-pressed to find a better deal on a capable and eco-friendly laptop than the Acer Aspire Vero 16, which is currently available for just $379.99 at Best Buy.

As of Feb. 28, you can snag this 16-inch laptop for $320 less than the MSRP of $699.99, making it an incredibly budget-friendly option for students, remote workers, or anyone in need of a reliable laptop without breaking the bank.

The Acer Aspire Vero 16 is an eco-friendly device built with recycled materials. It’s also paint- and VOC-free, and its packaging is made from 90% recycled paper. You’ll also notice that the “R” and “E” keys are backward, a subtle nod to the device's sustainable design and Acer's commitment to reducing waste and environmental impact. Even the touchpad is made with reclaimed ocean-bound plastic.

Under the hood, the Acer Aspire Vero 16 has an Intel Core Ultra 5 Series 1 processor, 8GB RAM, and 512GB SSD storage, which should be more than enough power and capacity for most everyday tasks like web browsing, document writing, video streaming, and light photo editing. It has a 10-hour battery life and Windows 11 Home pre-installed, so you're getting a well-rounded package that checks all the boxes for a budget-friendly, eco-conscious laptop.
