Acer Predator Triton 14 AI (2025) announced at Computex 2025

Acer has unveiled several new products at Computex 2025, ranging from productivity laptops to gaming monitors. But among the most exciting announcements is the Predator Triton 14 AI, which is a compact gaming laptop with powerful specs and next-gen AI features in a slim chassis. Let’s learn more about the Acer Predator Triton 14 AI 2025, including its expected price in Nepal.

Acer Predator Triton 14 AI 2025 Overview

Design and Display

It carries a sleek and compact design that feels both premium and practical. Acer, this time, has refined the build with an anti-fingerprint coating on the chassis, helping it stay clean and sharp even after extended use. Despite being a performance-focused machine, it maintains a minimalist look that works well in both gaming and professional environments. The Triton 14 AI 2025 weighs just 1.6 kg and measures just 17.31 mm thick, which is quite impressive.

The touchpad is another standout here since Acer has gone with a large Gorilla Glass haptic trackpad that even has native stylus support. Meaning you can turn it into a functional mini drawing tablet. And by the way, you get the stylus inside the box itself.

On the front, we get a stunning 14.5-inch OLED display with a sharp 2.8K resolution (2880 x 1800) and a 120Hz refresh rate. It’s Calman Verified for color accuracy and covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color space, making it ideal for content creation and media consumption.

The panel is also touch-enabled, which is a rare bonus in gaming laptops. And Acer has paid attention to the finer details, too. There’s a 1080p IR webcam with AI-powered human presence detection, allowing the laptop to automatically lock or dim the screen when you’re away or not looking directly at it.

Performance and Storage

In terms of performance, the Acer Predator Triton 14 AI 2025 is powered by the Intel Core Ultra 9 288V processor in the high-end configuration. This CPU features 8 cores (4 performance + 4 efficient cores), 8 threads, a maximum turbo frequency of 5.1 GHz, and 32GB of LPDDR5X memory. And in terms of GPU, you can pair it with up to an NVIDIA RTX 5070 graphics.

Intel Core Ultra 9 Processor

Just so you know, since Acer went with Intel’s “Lunar Lake” processor for this laptop, you won’t be able to upgrade memory afterwards. The storage is still upgradable, though, and the Triton 14 AI can take up to 2TB of PCIe Gen 4 SSD.

Thermals and Connectivity 

The Predator Triton 14 AI 2025 uses Acer’s 6th Gen AeroBlade 3D Fans, featuring ultra-thin 0.05mm metal blades that boost airflow efficiency by 20%. It’s the world’s thinnest fan blade design, with 100 adaptive blades that optimize cooling at high speeds. It is also the world’s first laptop to feature graphene thermal interface material (TIM), which improves heat transfer by 14.5% over traditional pastes.

A vapor chamber that evenly spreads heat to prevent hot spots is also present, while Acer’s Vortex Flow design enhances airflow with strategically placed fans and thermal foam for stable performance during intense use.

Acer Predator Triton 14 AI-Thermals

Despite being slim and portable, the Predator Triton 14 AI 2025 doesn’t skip on connectivity either. It supports the latest Wi-Fi 7 standard for faster and more stable wireless performance, and includes a solid selection of ports: two USB-C ports (including Thunderbolt 4), two USB-A ports, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a microSD card reader, and a full-size HDMI 2.1 output for external displays.

The Triton 14 AI also delivers on its gamer aesthetic by including a customizable per-key RGB keyboard. Whereas, despite its relatively small 14.5-inch chassis, Acer has also managed to fit in a big 76 Wh battery inside this laptop.

Alongside the iQOO Pad 5, iQOO has also taken the curtains off the iQOO Pad 5 Pro.

Without further ado, let’s head straight into the specs, features, and expected price of the iQOO Pad 5 Pro in Nepal in this article.

iQOO Pad 5 Pro Overview

Design and Display

Design-wise, the Pro version boasts a similar outlook to the vanilla Pad 5. A circular camera module and the same color options: Gray, Green, and Silver. It is bigger and thus, sports a bigger display, a 13-inch IPS LCD with a sharper 3.1K resolution (3096 × 2064 pixels). The refresh rate remains the same at 144Hz, and so does the HDR 10 support. However, it gets brighter at 1200nits as compared to 900nits of the Pad 5.

As aforementioned, the Pad 5 Pro gets its horsepower from the Dimensity 9400 Plus SoC.

Dimensity 9400 Plus

To manage thermals, the tablet employs a dual-sided, seven-layer graphite cooling system spanning 40,600 mm², ensuring the device remains cool. Memory-wise, iQOO has paired this chip with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of fast UFS 4.1 storage standard. Likewise, it boots on OriginOS 5, based on Android 15.

Nothing Phone (3) will finally make its debut in July 2025

After a long wait, Nothing is finally set to unveil its first proper flagship phone in July 2025. And in this article, I will walk you through all the Nothing Phone (3) rumors and specifications that have surfaced online.

Nothing Phone (3) rumors

Upgraded cameras

The latest teaser shows that the upcoming Phone (3) will feature three cameras. Nothing has given in to a triple camera setup starting with the Phone (3a) (review), so the flagship Phone (3) will definitely feature three cameras at the back as well. Which will likely include a primary, an ultrawide, and a periscope zoom lens (with a 5x optical zoom).

Performance and storage

Previously, some three devices appeared on Geekbench, and everyone expected the Phone (3) to be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3. Those turned out to be the Nothing Phone (3a) (review) and the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro (review), though.

However, with Carl Pei confirming “major performance upgrades,” the upcoming Nothing Phone (3) will likely feature Snapdragon 8 Elite or Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 at the minimum. We also expect it to come in multiple variants, starting at 12GB RAM LPDDR5X and 256GB of UFS 4.0 storage, in line with flagship standards.

Other details

Besides all this, there really isn’t much we know about the Nothing Phone (3) so far. It’s rumored to feature a 5,000 mAh battery with 50W fast charging. And as expected from a Nothing phone at this point, it will also feature the classic “Glyph Interface” and the new “Essential Key”. We’re also expecting IP68 dust/water resistance on Nothing’s first true flagship phone, alongside premium build materials.

Nothing Phone (3) Price and Launch Date

As mentioned in the beginning, Nothing has officially confirmed that the Phone (3) is launching in July 2025. This aligns with the launch pattern of previous models — the Nothing Phone (1) (review) and the Nothing Phone (2) (review) — both of which debuted in July.

Interestingly enough, Nothing’s CEO — Carl Pei — has also disclosed that the Phone (3) will be priced around GBP 800 (~ USD 1,074 / INR 92,000). Which is significantly higher compared to the Phone (2). Although we won’t be surprised if this thing ends up selling at a much lower price than that.

Smartphone Price in the UK (Expected) Price in Nepal (Expected)
Nothing Phone (3) GBP 800 NPR 150,000
