Acer used Computex 2026 to show that its ambitions now stretch beyond high-end displays. The company paired creator-focused monitors with a laser projector built around Google TV and an unusual wearable pin, creating a lineup that spans work, entertainment, mobility, and personal expression.
The most striking part of that approach is how different the products are from one another. Instead of centering the booth on a single category, Acer presented a broader ecosystem that connects visual performance, portable productivity, and lifestyle-oriented accessories.
Creator monitors remain a major focus
At the center of the display lineup was the ProDesigner PE320QK G0, a monitor aimed at users who need strong visual precision. It uses a next-generation QD-OLED panel, 4K Ultra HD resolution, true 10-bit color, and VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification.
Acer is also emphasizing color accuracy as one of the model’s main strengths. The company says the monitor has been calibrated to a Delta E value below one, carries Calman Verified certification, and covers 99% of DCI-P3 and 98% of Adobe RGB.
Performance is not limited to image quality alone. The ProDesigner PE320QK G0 supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and a 0.03 ms GTG response time, which makes it suitable for video editing and other visually demanding tasks.
To simplify control, Acer adds Smart Dial support. The accessory can be used to adjust brightness, contrast, and input from a distance, while Creator Hub handles color management, external calibration, and multi-display setup.
Acer also introduced the CE320QK G for prosumers. It keeps the QD-OLED 4K UHD panel, 10-bit color, and HDR support, but adds an ErgoStand for easier adjustment of tilt, swivel, and height.
A laser projector with Google TV inside
One of the more notable launches is the HL6820GTV, a premium laser projector that includes an internal Google TV dongle. The model offers 4K Ultra HD resolution and is said to use up to 35% less power than traditional lamp-based projectors.
The Google TV integration is meant to make streaming access and voice navigation more convenient. Acer positions the projector for both home use and commercial scenarios, giving it a broader target than a typical living-room model.
Durability is also part of the pitch. The HL6820GTV supports 24/7 operation, uses a mercury-free light source rated for up to 30,000 hours, carries an IP5X certification, and supports 360-degree projection.
Acer also highlights low latency on this model. That makes it more relevant for fast-moving video playback and gaming where quick response matters.
Portable projection and mobile displays round out the range
For users who want a large image in a more compact format, Acer introduced the HD1500. This portable projector delivers Full HD 1080p resolution and 8,000 LED lumens of brightness.
Setup is designed to be quick through Auto-Focus, automatic frame adjustment, and wall obstacle detection. Acer also includes an adaptive rotating stand and a pair of built-in 5W speakers.
On the mobile productivity side, the company showed the PM161Q JB and PM131QT portable monitors. Both series offer single-cable connectivity, auto-rotation through a G-sensor, touchscreen options, and pogo keyboard support for work across different locations.
That mix shows how Acer is broadening its hardware strategy. The company is not only updating premium monitors, but also building out products for moving between workspaces, watching content, and using displays in more flexible ways.
A wearable that stands apart
Among the more unusual items at the event was the Aspire Badge. The digital pin works over Bluetooth and can play music, display personal visuals, and provide emergency functions such as a Morse code SOS alarm.
Its presence adds a different tone to Acer’s presentation at Computex 2026. In a booth dominated by visual hardware, the wearable brings together personalization, entertainment, and safety in a compact form.
