Among the desktops and laptops in its announcement, Acer also has a whole lot of accessories and peripherals announced at CES 2026.
Starting with connectivity, they are going for the mainstream strategy for WiFi 7 through the Acer Connect Ovia mesh routers. The dual-band Ovia T360 is clearly aimed at apartments and smaller spaces, covering up to 90 m² per node across the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, while the tri-band Ovia T520 adds 6 GHz support and boosts coverage to 110 m² per node, with speeds reaching up to 5,764 Mbps for heavier streaming, gaming, and multi-device households. Both support Wi-Fi 7 features like Multi-Link Operation to reduce latency and improve throughput, and their minimalist designs are meant to blend into modern living spaces rather than stand out. Add more nodes and the system handles roaming automatically, keeping connections stable as you move from room to room.
For users who need connectivity beyond the home, Acer Connect M4D 5G Mobile Wi-Fi fills that gap. It’s a compact hotspot that can share a 5G connection with up to 16 devices over dual-band Wi-Fi 6, backed by up to 15 hours of battery life for a full day on the move. Support for Nano-SIM, eSIM, and Virtual SIM makes it especially travel-friendly, letting users switch providers across regions, while WISP and USB tethering modes add flexibility for work setups.
Drop it into its bundled docking station, and it effectively becomes a small home or office router, complete with wired LAN support and 5G-to-LAN routing. Security is also front and center, with WPA2/WPA3 encryption, VPN support, SIM lock, and OTA updates keeping things simple and protected.
On the gaming front, Acer is refreshing its Nitro lineup with both Intel and AMD-powered Nitro V 16 AI models. The Intel-based Nitro V 16 AI and the thinner Nitro V 16S AI pair up to Intel Core Ultra 7 processors with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPUs, targeting gamers who want modern AI features without stepping into flagship pricing. The slimmer V 16S AI comes in under 17.9 mm thick, making it more appealing for on-the-go play, while still offering features like a 16-inch WUXGA display, RGB keyboard, and FHD IR webcam with a privacy shutter.
Meanwhile, the AMD-powered Nitro V 16 AI steps things up with Ryzen AI 9 processors, RTX 50 Series Laptop GPUs based on NVIDIA Blackwell, and a 180 Hz WUXGA display. With DLSS 4, massive AI horsepower, and DTS:X Ultra audio. Across the Nitro and Predator lineup, Acer Intelligence Space ties everything together, enabling on-device AI features and Copilot+ PC experiences like Live Captions and AI-powered image creation on Windows 11.
Acer is also making a big push on displays, starting with the Nitro XV270X P gaming monitor. This 27-inch IPS panel is all about flexibility, offering a sharp 5K resolution at 165 Hz for detailed visuals and creative work, while a dedicated DFR mode drops the resolution to 1440p and cranks the refresh rate up to 330 Hz for competitive play complemented with FreeSync Premium, a 0.5 ms response time, HDR400 support, and 95% DCI-P3 coverage. The ergonomic stand and modern connectivity rounds out the package nicely.
For professionals, the ProDesigner PE320QX goes even further, delivering 6K resolution at 60Hz with exceptional color accuracy, covering 99% Adobe RGB and 98% DCI-P3. HDR600 support, a reflection-free panel, and wide viewing angles make it well-suited for studio and hybrid work environments, while USB4 with up to 100 W power delivery simplifies clean desk setups. AI ProxiSense adds a smart touch by detecting user presence and putting the display to sleep automatically when no one’s around.
Rounding things out is the Acer Vero HL1820 projector, which brings 4K RGB laser projection into both home cinema and gaming spaces. With 5,500 RGB laser lumens, wide BT.2020 color coverage, low-latency 1080p 240 Hz gaming support, and a long-life, mercury-free laser engine, it’s designed to be both high-performance and environmentally conscious. Flexible installation options and a chassis made from recycled materials underline Acer’s broader push toward sustainability.
