Source: newegg.com (verified 2026-06-15) · corroborated by laptopmag.com. Size (15.6"), resolution (1920x1080), panel (IPS), USB-C connectivity and price ($199.99 MSRP / $181.99 Newegg) confirmed via Newegg listing. Refresh rate 60Hz is standard for this IPS model (USB-C bandwidth, no high-refresh variant). CORRECTED: ASUS official spec lists weight 0.71 kg (1.57 lb), not 1.76 lb; the MB16ACE has a SINGLE full-function USB-C port (not two) — confirmed via ASUS techspec page and ServeTheHome/B&H reviews which note the single-USB-C design as a trade-off vs rivals. No HDMI port on the ACE variant (USB-C only, 'hybrid signal', bundled USB-C to USB-A adapter). Touchscreen: no.
