13 октября 2021 г Hi-network.com

Acer launched a series of new Chromebooks, laptops for creative pros working with 3D designs, a suite of eco-friendly devices and antimicrobial products.

The portfolio updates, which also included new Predator gaming devices, were outlined at a global press conference Wednesday.

In many respects, Acer is leveraging its consumer customer base to expand into more business use cases. When it comes to businesses, Acer is looking to break into an enterprise market dominated by Dell, HP and Lenovo.

Acer is also upping its product cadence as the PC maker recently launched a handful of new Windows 11 laptops including the ultraportable Swift 5.

For the latest updates, Acer rolled out a set of new Chromebooks designed for consumers and enterprises. Chromebooks have been driving unit sales for multiple PC makers. In an interview Acer CEO Jason Chen said demand for PCs overall was strong, but Chromebooks are outpacing the broader market in North America and Western Europe as well as Southeast Asia. Chen also said there has been strong demand for PCs that reuse plastics and are more sustainable. 

The new Chromebooks from Acer include:

  • The Acer Chromebook Spin 514 and Acer Chromebook Spin Enterprise 514. These devices are fan less convertibles with 14-inch displays and 11th Gen Intel Core processors.
