Acer Iconia W3 may be the world’s first 8-inch Windows 8 tablet
It is said that Microsoft has changed Windows 8 to enable lower-screen resolutions that would consequently allow OEMs to make smaller tablets. Acer likes the idea and may be among the first companies to launch an 8-inch tablet running Windows 8.

Acer V370 with 4.5-inch screen and quad-core CPU approved in China
Even though we never got to play with the V360 (and V350 for that matter), Acer is apparently working on its successor, marked as (guess) V370. The new/upcoming device has been approved by the Telecommunication Equipment Certification Center MIIT in China and as far as we know, it may never leave the Far East region. Specs wise, we’re talking about a mid-end device with a 4.5-inch qHD (540×960 pixels) screen and 1.2GHz quad-core processor, which is most likely the MediaTek MT6589. In addition, Acer’s baby will also pack 1GB of … Read more

Acer Liquid S is the upcoming quad-core phablet

Acer is looking to sell a total of 10 million tablets this year. That’s up from just 1 million it moved last year.

Acer Liquid Z2 and Liquid E1 officially announced
A few days before the big show starts at Barcelona, Acer announced two new smartphones — Liquid Z2 and Liquid E1 — both of which will be available in single and dual-SIM versions. According to Acer, these two are made for “feature phone upgraders” and in that sense we shouldn’t expect the high-end specs.
