Acer refreshed some of its TravelMate business machines a few months ago and now they are official here via Mercantile Communication. In this article, let’s take a quick peek at the available Acer TravelMate 14 (2024) models, their offerings, and price in Nepal.
Acer TravelMate Laptops Overview
Design and Display
Acer has many models under its TravelMate lineup and some of its 14” offerings are now here in Nepal. That includes the P2, P4, and P6 14 SKUs all of which ship with Miltary Grade build and a sustainability-focused approach. They are lightweight machines (<1.6 kg) with durable chassis featuring post-consumer recycled plastic. The P6 is the lightest of the bunch at just 1200 grams and this one’s more premium with an aluminum magnesium alloy.
Moving on to the display, you get either an IPS or an OLED panel with a 1200p (WUXGA) or an 1800p (WQXGA) screen. The IPS variants have up to 340 nits of brightness and cover the whole of the sRGB gamut while the OLED reaches up to 400 nits and has full DCI P3 colors.
Performance and Memory
Under the hood, the business-focused Acer TravelMate laptops ship with new Intel Core and Core Ultra processors. The TravelMate P2 14 and P4 14 have Core 5 120U, and Core 7 150U respectively while the pricier P6 14 ships with a Core Ultra 5 125H. A very important distinction is that the former two are based on an older architecture and feature Intel’s Iris Xe while the ‘Ultra’ chip is a Meteor Lake product with a well-upgraded Arc-integrated GPU among other efficiency gains.

As for the memory side of things, you are getting the standard 16/512GB configuration on most variants but there’s an extra M.2 slot on the P6 while the P2 and P4 have swappable RAM.
Battery and Extras
Although all three are 14-inch laptops, the battery sizes on the Acer TravelMate 14 (2024) can vary from 50-65Wh depending on the model. You get two Thunderbolt 4 ports, an HDMI, a Type-A, a microSD reader, and a headphone jack on the TravelMate P6 14 while the P2 and P4 bring extra Type-A and RJ45 ports.
Finally, taking a look at the additional features, we get to see stuff like a physical privacy shutter, a white backlight, and a fingerprint reader. The brand hasn’t specified the resolution for all the models, but it’d be safe to assume an FHD webcam. For wireless connections, there’s WiFi 6E and Bluetooth.
