Acer Announces New ePaper and Triple-Display Monitors
Acer today announced a broad expansion of its product portfolio during its next@acer global press conference at IFA 2026, aimed at empowering how modern consumers play, work, and stay connected while on the go. The new lineup includes the Acer EP130K ePaper portable monitor; the Acer PD163Q P3 triple screen extender; the Acer C350e projector; the Acer Iconia X16, Iconia X14, Iconia A16, and Iconia A14 tablets; and the Acer Connect X6ES CPE router and the Acer Connect D5P dongle for 5G connectivity.
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.
Premium Acer Iconia X16 and Iconia X14 Tablets for Entertainment and Education
The latest generation of Acer Iconia X series tablets includes the new 16-inch Acer Iconia X16 (X16-21M) and the updated 14-inch Iconia X14 (X14-21M). Powered by MediaTek Helio G80 SoCs and running Android 16, the Iconia X series are premium-grade tablets that offer OLED screens with 1920 x 1200 resolution and a metal chassis in Matte Black.
This newest generation keeps the focus on entertainment and education for students and families; both new Iconia X tablets feature two USB Type-C ports—one dedicated to video input and one for charging and data—and offer a screen casting function, making them ideal for pairing with another device or screen for doing homework, watching movies or sports, and playing games.
In addition, the two new Acer Iconia X tablets embrace the signature tripod kickstand design for convenient screen access and are offered with several optional accessories: a stylus pen for on-the-spot notetaking and creativity and an attachable keyboard for seamless typing[2].
Entry Acer Iconia A16 and Iconia A14 Tablets for Entertainment and Education
Also focused on entertainment and education, the latest generation of the entry-level Acer Iconia A series tablets include the upgraded 16-inch Acer Iconia A16 (A16-21M) and 14-inch Iconia A14 (A14-21M), offering IPS screens and a chassis in Vapor Silver. Like the latest Acer Iconia X series tablets, both A series models are powered by the MediaTek Helio G80 SoCs and offer dual USB Type-C ports—with one dedicated to video-only input—all upgrades over the previous generation aimed at maximizing value.
Acer Connect X6ES 5G CPE Router for Speed and Reliability
Housed in Acer’s distinctively modern router design, the Acer Connect X6ES is a 5G CPE router that delivers high-speed, reliable 5G and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, helping homes and businesses stay connected even where traditional broadband falls short.

Advanced data security features include WPA2/WPA3 encryption, firewall protection, SIM lock functionality, and VPN support, while the Connect X6ES offers easy network management via a web browser. In addition, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports and a convenient WPS button simplify device onboarding.
Acer Connect D5P 5G Dongle for High-Speed Connectivity on the Go
The Acer Connect D5P 5G dongle delivers plug-and-play 5G connectivity for laptops and compatible computing devices, enabling seamless access for work, travel, and everyday mobility. It stands out for offering tri-SIM flexibility with support for eSIMs, nano SIMs, and vSIMs, and comes equipped with a preloaded eSIM profile. Supporting download speeds of up to 3.27 Gbps in 5G Standalone (SA) mode and up to 2.77 Gbps in Non Standalone (NSA) mode, it enables smoother downloads, uploads, and cloud collaboration.
The dongle seamlessly connects to mobile devices via USB Type-C, and USB-C tethering enables broad compatibility across multiple operating systems. For advanced data security, it provides WPA/WPA2 encryption, firewall protection, and SIM lock support. The compact, lightweight design is made to fit easily into a bag or laptop kit.
