Acer teases Next@Acer press conference set for April 27
Expect a flurry of new Predator gaming announcements and more during the Acer keynote next week. The manufacturer is otherwise remaining tight-lipped about what the event will unveil.
Acer's press conference in New York next week is still a mystery as the Taiwanese manufacturer has yet to tease any devices leading up to the event. We can, however, count on new Predator gaming products as Acer recently tweeted with the hashtag #PredatorGaming. The opening keynote will start on April 27th at 11:00 AM EST where several surprises are expected to be in store.
Notebookcheck will be live at the event covering all the details with hands-on previews and reports. We are fully expecting the Predator 21 X to make an appearance as it has been the main Acer attraction since 2016. Beyond that, an Ultrabook refresh may be in the works with proper ULV Kaby Lake CPU options as the current Swift 7 ships only with low-power passively-cooled options. A more direct competitor to the Asus Zenbook 3 or Dell XPS 13 or 15 series, for example, could bring Acer back to the forefront.

After graduating with a B.S. in environmental hydrodynamics from the University of California, I studied reactor physics to become licensed by the U.S. NRC to operate nuclear reactors. There's a striking level of appreciation you gain for everyday consumer electronics after working with modern nuclear reactivity systems astonishingly powered by computers from the 80s. When I'm not managing day-to-day activities and US review articles on Notebookcheck, you can catch me following the eSports scene and the latest gaming news.
