Acer has introducedseveral Windows 10 PCs at IFA 2016 todayincluding the Swift 7 and Spin 7 new ultrabooks, refreshed Predator 15 and 17 gaming laptops as well as a brand new Predator 21” curved-Screen model. Acer’s new ultrabooks feature an impressive thin and light design in well-designed enclosures while the Predator X21 gaming laptop is powered by top of the line specs including dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 GPUs. Let’s dive into the details below:
the Acer Swift 7 looks to be one of the thinnest and lightest ultrabook ever with its all-aluminum dual tone body measuring .39 inches thin and weighing in just 2.48 pounds. The notebook also features a 13.3-inch FULL HD IPS 2 display which is not touch enabled, an HD webcam with HDR imaging support and two USB 3.1 Type-C ports. On the inside, you’ll find a 7th Generation Intel Core i5 processor, a 256GB SSD and up to 8GB of memory and the notebook should deliver up to 8 hours of battery life.
The Acer Spin 7 convertible notebook is slightly bigger than its Swift 7 little brother as it features a 14-inch FHD IPS touchscreen display with Gorilla Glass in a 0.43 inches thin and 2.6 pounds package. Unlike the Swift 7, the Spin 7 has a mate black chassis with polished silver hinges and diamond-cut edges around its wide-glass touchpad, and hardware specs are also slightly better with a 7th gen Intel Core i7 processor though battery life should be around 8 hours.
There is not much to say about the refreshed Predator 15 and 17 gaming notebooks except that they now come with the latest NVIDIA GPUs with the all-new Pascal architecture. The gaming laptops can be configured with NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1070 graphics to make them pretty future-proof and VR-ready.
The Predator 21 X is the first gaming laptop to feature a 21” curved-screen as well as eye-tracking technology that provides Windows Hello support as well as “new interactions in gaming like aiming, identifying enemies and taking cover simply by gazing at objects on the screen.” Additionally, the gaming notebook features beastly hardware specs under the hood:
