These devices are equipped with Intel Core Ultra processors and feature a brand-new neural processing unit (NPU) to enable AI on client devices.
In addition to the new laptops, Acer has also announced a partnership with chip manufacturer Qualcomm, to introduce two gaming routers. Leveraging the Qualcomm Immersive Home Platform and tri-band Wi-Fi 7 technology, these routers aim to provide stable connections and enhance wireless gameplay.
