About this deal

The weakness of this model is that the integrated GPU isn’t anything special (on Intel), but if you’re not editing video or connecting to a 4K external monitor, the Travelmate P2 is a decent daily driver. Protect your Laptop against the cost and hassle of unexpected failure and give yourself some added peace of mind with one of our great value extended warranties!

Inside, you’ll see a lot of free space and a pretty modest cooling solution, comprising a tiny heat pipe, a heat sink, and a fan. If you need a more powerful dGPU, there is an optional NVIDIA GeForce MX330 (2GB GDDR5, 25W) – these devices have a “G” suffix. In addition, the machine comes with a 1080p IPS panel, while for storage, it supports both SATA and NVMe devices. At least on paper, this laptop looks like a good notebook that doesn’t cost too much.This profile is aimed at designers who work with colors professionally, and for games and movies as well. Design and Gaming takes display panels to their limits, making them as accurate as possible in the sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standard for Web and HDTV, at white point D65. Considering that this laptop is designated a ‘Travelmate’, the mass of this machine is on the high side at 1.9 kg or over 4 lbs. That’s plenty to be carrying around, and this isn’t the machine you can practically hold with one hand and operate with the other.

Interestingly, you will get an especially populated I/O selection, with a total of four USB ports (one Type-C), an RJ-45 connector, and an SD card reader. And while most of 2020’s new notebooks feature an HDMI connector, you will rarely find a VGA port. Well, the TravelMate P2 (TMP215-52) has one, paying tribute to its ancestors. As we’ll talk about later, upgrading the SSD and RAM on these machines is possible, which might save you money over having lots of either item pre-installed. Our “Design and Gaming” profile delivers optimal color temperature (6500K) at 140 cd/m2 luminance and sRGB gamma mode.

Customers should therefore budget an afternoon to strip the machine of everything they didn’t pay for so they can use the one thing they did. More expensive than the TravelMate P2, the Asus Zephyrus G14 has a powerful AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS processor and a discrete Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 GPU. Making it more suitable for graphics challenges, and it still has a good battery life. Acer TravelMate P2 (TMP215-53) has a Full HD IPS panel with a model number BOE NV156FHM-N48. Its diagonal is 15.6″ (39.62 cm), and the resolution is 1920 х 1080 pixels. The screen ratio is 16:9, and we are looking at a pixel density of – 142 ppi, and a pitch of 0.18 х 0.18 mm. The screen turns into Retina when viewed at distance equal to or greater than 60cm (24″) (from this distance one’s eye stops differentiating the separate pixels, and it is normal for looking at a laptop). Health-Guard eliminates the harmful Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) and reduces the negative Blue Light which affects our eyes and body. Since it’s custom tailored for every panel, it manages to keep the colors perceptually accurate. Health-Guard simulates paper so the pressure on the eyes is greatly reduced. Striking the perfect balance between perfomance& efficency, TravelMate series notebooks are reliable learning companions powerful enough to handle most workloads.

Perhaps to no surprise, this notebook is entirely made out of plastic. Additionally, it doesn’t seem to be one of particularly high quality as well. When we try to bend it, we experience quite some flex from the chassis. In terms of measurements, the laptop weighs 1.80 kg and has a profile of 19.9mm, which is pretty thin and light for a 15-inch device. One curiosity is the screen hinges that tease that they might be fully reversible but aren’t. These hinges do allow the screen to fold flat, travelling 180 degrees from the close position to fully extended. Not sure what the value is in this much rotation, but it’s what it can do. Ports are mostly along either side, other than a MicroSD card slot on the front edge. The rear edge is exclusively allocated to an exhaust vent, and the underside has extensive vent holes for bringing air in to be expelled rearwards. Acer TravelMate P2 (TMP215-52)’s display in this configuration has an IPS panel with a Full HD resolution, comfortable viewing angles, and good contrast ratio. Sadly, it has a very narrow color coverage (50% of sRGB) and uses harmful PWM for all brightness levels, part the maximum. While our Health-Guard profile can eliminate the issue, it is not good to see such an issue on a work device (or any device in general).
