When using the webcam for teleconferencing, the experience is enhanced by Acer PurifiedView for AI-enhanced effects. The audio is crisp and clear thanks to the three microphones to accurately pinpoint the speaker's voice and Acer's PurifiedVoice technology that further improves the experience with AI-aided noise cancelation.

DTS:X^® Ultra Audio on the new laptop enhances sound quality through its onboard dynamic dual speakers, so audio is clear whether on a conference call or when enjoying entertainment.
