Q: What upgrades can be made with this laptop? Does it support NVME? If so, what keys? What is the maximum storage potential in this laptop, with the m.2 and the SATA 6 GB port? Can it have a 4k screen with a custom resolution on Nvidia drivers?

A: Memory is onboard and not upgradeable. The M.2 SSD slot supports nVME and SATA3; Acer has tested up to 512GB for the SSD. The LCD supports up to 1920 x 1080 and does not support 4k resolution.

Q: Can the m.2 slot on this board support a 1TB SSD? Does compatibility of the SSD change depending on the brand, or does any m.2 NVME/SATA 6GBs work? Is a WD Blue 1TB SSD supported? What is the maximum storage on the 2.5-inch bay?

A: Generally, I have not heard of an m.2 slot that will not support any m.2 SSD. Compatibility should not be a problem, nor should storage capacity. In my experience, those are things you worry about with memory, not storage. So I would say any m.2 compatible SSD of any size would work fine in this machine. The only limiing factor there would be cost and what's available on the market. Personally, I prefer Samsung EVO SSDs.

Q: What is the percentage of sRGB color coverage for this model? What is the model number of the Henghao panel? Is this Henghao panel the same one used on the non-gaming Acer Spin 2-in-1 models? Thank you.

A: The description of the LCD is: N15.6FHDSUPIL/TP1A HENGHAO-KL.1560H.004. Below is the brightness and contrast information, but sRGB is not a spec that we offer for the laptop products. Brightness 400 nit Contrast ratio 700:1

Q: Does this have stylus capability? Does ASUS have their own stylus?

A: Yes it has hover ability as well as two buttons that can be programmed or work standard as toward and backward buttons. And yes it's an Acer not Acus as that's what the computer is but it's an Acer active stylus is the model.

Q: Is the OS on the HDD or SSD?

A: The SSD is the System Drive.
