Acer EP130K ePaper Monitor for Mobile Productivity and Reading

Combining the natural viewing experience of paper-like visuals with glare-free use, the new Acer EP130K is designed for professionals who perform deep work for long periods, avid readers, and mobile users whose work takes them outdoors. The monitor supports touch directly on its ePaper screen, enabling stylus use as well as the intuitive feel of writing or drawing with a finger. It delivers a high resolution of up to 3200 x 2400 with a 60 Hz refresh rate, while offering both color and black-and-white modes for switching between the two as needed. A single USB Type-C cable supplies power from the host device to the low-power consumption panel, while its bi-stability functionality allows the image on screen to remain in place even when all power sources are removed.

Acer PD163Q P3 Triple Screen Extender for High-Powered Multi-Tasking

With three 15.6-inch FHD IPS panels, the Acer PD163Q P3 triple screen extender is perfectly suited to hybrid professionals who need a versatile productivity setup that allows them to visualize broad information or manage multiple workflows simultaneously. The device stands out for combining multiple screens with a space-saving, foldable design and minimized cables, and it enables up to four total displays when paired with a laptop.

When set up, the three screens on the Acer PD163Q P3 serve as independent, foldable display panels that support both extend and clone display modes, allowing users to dedicate one screen to each aspect of their workflow. A single USB-C cable connection to the host device simplifies connectivity and cable management, and the PD163Q P3 comes with an external USB-C power delivery adapter for charging. In addition, screen brightness can be adjusted uniformly across all three panels for optimizing viewing experiences.

Acer C350e Projector: AI-Powered Portable Companion

More than a portable LED projector, the Acer C350e is an AI-powered lifestyle companion for modern homes and families. When not projecting content, the projector remains active through its AI Badge, displaying personal photos, offering useful widgets, and enabling AI-driven interactions powered by Google Gemini. The AI Badge also functions as a detachable remote control for the projector.

For projecting content, it delivers excellent viewing experiences with crisp Full HD resolution at 1920 x 1080, backed by an 8,000 LED lumens light source and 350 ANSI lumens of brightness. Its swivel stand with tilt design enables hassle-free setup by offering 360-degree rotation and 120-degree tilting for projecting in a variety of spaces. A built-in small camera module powers auto focus, automatically adjusting the projection, while 2D keystone correction and 4-corner correction fix distortions for flawless viewing.

The Acer C350e is further equipped with a built-in smart system[1] that enables streaming from popular apps and platforms. It has two 3 W speakers, and its LED light source eliminates the need to wait for powering on and off. Its design also incorporates the principles of sustainability, with a 30,000-hour lifespan and mercury-free materials.
