Ladies and gentlemen, let's give a round of applause to welcome Acer Chairman and CEO, Jason Chen. Hello, everyone. Hello, Berlin. For old friends and new friends, let's show me some hands. For you, first time coming to Acer's global press conference, show me your hand. New friends, welcome. For people been here multiple times, I know you know me, thank you very much to come again. For the industry, the computer industry was started back a long time ago, 1946. The first computer was invented, and throughout the process, lots of things have been changed. In 1976, Acer was established. It was founded by our founder, Mr. Stan Shih. Over years, we have this belief to keep breaking the barriers between people and technology. There are many great product being introduced, lots of initiative was done. But within the group, there is a brand come with a long history. Let's look at it. [Presentation] For Packard Bell, I would like to invite Valerie to join me on the stage. Thank you. Valerie, what is the brand story behind Packard Bell? Well, first, thank you, Jason. Good morning, everyone. I am super excited to be here again. But this time, this is to relaunch an old brand, as you mentioned, which is truly meaningful to me, Packard Bell. Let me tell you the story. You need to make yourself comfortable because this story started a century ago. In the late 1920s, Léon Packard and Herb Bell founded Packard Bell, starting with radios and later expanding into TVs, computers, and much more. It started with a radio set? Yes. Important to remember. But one belief has always remained: technology should be accessible to everyone. Today, we are bringing that spirit back, an easy and intuitive technology that fits naturally in your daily life. At Packard Bell, you understood we take it easy. Take it easy. Cool, isn't it? That is why we are putting technology where it belongs, to support people's life. This year, we are reviving the brand with a series of lifestyle products, you can see I wear them, which are really designed for real people. We have been refreshing this visual identity, and it stands out in a noisy world. We use simple shapes, confident colors, and a unifying signature. I can tell. Confident color for confident people. Thank you. We need to ensure that Packard Bell's product is recognized at a glance without the techno show-off. But remember, Jason Chen, I think you mentioned it, Packard Bell started 100 years ago. 100 years ago. With radios. That is why today we wanted to start this new chapter by echoing our past and by launching the Dot Loop. As you can see, the Dot Loop is actually a vintage turntable with modern touch. It is compatible with vinyl records, but it also has Bluetooth and even voice control. This is a vintage turntable with Bluetooth connected and with voice recognition technology included. Exactly. You would be able to see it at the stage after. You can bring different ways of enjoying music together in one device. You can switch seamlessly from the Beatles to electronic music. Let me spend a bit more time on one last product, the Dot Book. We cannot do without computer. Exactly. The Dot Book is actually an orange PC designed for those who, well, spill coffee on their keyboards. I hope not. No, better not. It all happened to us. For those who blow into the USB ports, for the one who click restart instead of shutdown. All in all, this PC is just a simple one, and you pay for the tech you use, not for the hype you don't. Because Packard Bell is a brand which shows life as it is, messy, joyful, and real. Remember, take it easy. Thank you, Valerie. Thank you. Thank you. Let's come back to Acer. We do have this belief on four major pillars: computer, Acer Medical, sustainability, and smart living. Years ago, we make our commitment on sustainability in three layers, environmental friendly, so we start to use recycled material to make computers. We committed to RE100 by 2035, net zero by 2050. Many people ask us, "How is it going?" I am now very proud to share with you, we set our milestone and now we are overachieving our milestone. So we are very excited about that. That's only the first layer, environmental friendly. The second layer of sustainability is, of course, the corporate resilience. Acer want to be sustained as long as possible for the foreseeable future. Last but not least, the third layer of sustainability is about human health. How do we sustain people's health better? Therefore, we start to use AI technology into medical areas. Smart medical, how do we bridge the medical divide for people cannot reach the best possible medical device and solutions? For that, I would like to invite Dr. Allen Lien to join me on the stage. Allen. Welcome, Allen. Thank you, Jason. Allen, how long have you been with Acer? Three years up to now. Okay. This is one of few companies in the world that, from a technology company, we committed into medical, into healthcare, and we do hire medical doctors to join us. Allen practiced medicine in multiple countries, especially, I think it is notable that he actually did that in Africa for 10 years. Yes. You want to share with people a little bit more? Good morning, everyone, by the way. It happened on my first slide, I actually talk about my experience in West Africa. This is the photo I took in Burkina Faso, where we did community service there into a place where there is no electricity, water, or road. We found that we are fighting polio, so people have to vaccinate with a polio vaccine. You know the vaccine needs to be stored in a cold chain environment, so you need a refrigerator. Since there is no electricity, someone invented this gas bottle power refrigerator to store the vaccine. The problem is we had the vaccine, we had the technology, but still the virus was circulating without being controlled. I learned this lesson that with technology and with this human, there needs to be a bridge. This is what we are trying to do. We try to introduce the technology where it is most needed through the bridge. That is where we come from. Yeah. Technology. We are a technology company. What can we do on healthcare, to medical area? In the area of AI, the same concept actually applies. AI has a lot of potentials in healthcare, but the key lies in the technicality, but actually the barrier is rather sometimes social, behavioral, cultural. How can we effectively harness the AI for healthcare is the key, and this is where Acer Medical makes a difference. We are using AI, artificial intelligence, to break the barrier for medical, for healthcare. Yes. For the past eight years, we actually build hardware, software, healthcare solution. But in the era of AI, it accelerated from predictive AI that help earlier detection, now we apply generative AI, the large language model, to alleviate the burden of doctors in their documentation. Yeah, I remember last year we talk about agentic AI. Yes for medical, how is it going now? Yeah. You deploy this agentic AI into the hospital embed that into the electronic medical record, so it basically can alleviate the burden of doctor. Next time when you go to this kind of hospital, you can see the doctor will talk to you more instead of just typing behind their screens. Now we also apply AI for drug development. We actually apply AI to design a cancer immunotherapy to fight against cancer. That's a big potential for AI, for technologies to do new drug development. Yeah. Yes, Acer, we are already in this area. Yes. What's more exciting, we have this implementation of AIoT for continuous monitoring. I'll give an example. In this example, you can see that there are a- The 14% of the chance for someone to have a stroke, once they have it in one year, the second stroke can actually be even more detrimental. That can damage the person even more. Wait. Having a stroke is bad, but you are saying high percentage of people will have second stroke within a year. That's even worse. Yeah. So to prevent that person from the second stroke, you need to control blood sugar, blood lipid, blood pressure, stop smoking, and everything. It takes a nurse to phone that person and collect the information, like 30 minutes per person per day, and that is too tedious. Now we can apply this AI to alleviate the burden of this case management, this nurse, to prevent the stroke. Another example, this is actually more exciting. We want to even prevent people from coming to the hospital. To do that, you need to stay healthy. You need to actually exercise. So we, along with our partner, Fujitsu, we developed this software that can help monitor the subtle change of movement through time. Okay, so this is a complicated chart. Yeah. We are not going to read them all through, right? Yeah. I can make it easy. When you age or when you have injury, your movement change, and sometimes it is too subtle for a doctor to even notice. But with this AI, it can actually change. It can monitor the change of your movement, like the knee joint or your center of mass, if you walk wobbly. All this could be monitored by the app from a cell phone, and it can give you a longitudinal chart, like a radar chart, to make comparison. By doing so, you can help the doctor to detect the disease progression earlier and give a better care. By doing so, we also want to prevent people from coming to the hospital. Another exciting development is that we thought about health equity. Yeah. Globally, people are living in different tiers of healthcare that they can get. I call it medical divide. Yeah. Sometimes we call it health disparity. Take Indonesia, for example. This is a country with thousands of thousands of islands, and the majority of the specialists that practice delivery specialized care live in major cities that are in few islands. You can imagine a lot of inhabitants in those islands, they do not have specialized care. We can deploy our AI where doctors cannot travel, but the AI can travel there to fill the gap. Through this initiative, we are making healthcare more accessible and health equity more achievable. Thank you. Thank you, Allen. It is very important to see we already reach to multiple countries, and we already getting a lot of approvals, and there are many of hundreds hospitals and medical institutions already implemented our solution. We are excited to see, but this is just the beginning. Yes. This is just the beginning, and our ambition is very simple. We want to bring intelligence to where care is most needed. Thank you, Allen. Thank you very much. Thank you. Keep it up. Thank you. Keep it up. Thank you. In fact, Allen is not alone. Now we have multiple medical doctors working for Acer and working for you. Now, coming back to AI solutions. AI, we apply that to medical, we apply into multiple, many areas. The foundation for one device, AI, is to make sure we have the right product for you. For that, I would like to introduce Diana to join me on the stage. Diana. Before introducing the product, can you introduce yourself a little bit? Oh, definitely. Good morning, Jason. Good morning, everyone. This is Diana. I am a marketing manager in our regional office based in Switzerland. Switzerland. Yes. Today, let me introduce to you this beautiful product, the Acer SFF RTX Spark. This is our reference design for the NVIDIA RTX Spark super chip. Let us take a look at what is inside. This great powerhouse is driven by up to a 6,144 core Blackwell RTX GPU paired with 20 core NVIDIA Grace CPU. This is not even a typo, Jason. 6,144 core. This is serious AI computing power that can fit right in the palm of your hand. Not a long of time ago, we were talking about single AI agents. We are already at the next generation talking about multiple AI agents. Now, with up to 128 GB of unified memory, the NVIDIA RTX Spark does not just handle small AI tasks. It can run and process large amounts of AI tasks locally without reaching out to the cloud. That is, of course, Jason, a big change for individuals because now up to a whole 1 petaflop of FP4 AI performance can sit right beside your monitor. 1 petaflop, one palm. That is exactly the trade we are making here. Thank you. Thank you, Diana. Yes. AI is not longer only for bigger companies. It can also come now from individuals. We believe that the next generation of AI breakthroughs will also come from individuals like small developers, small teams, or also students. Why not? That is why we are trying to put AI within the reach of people. That is wonderful. Thank you. Thank you, Diana. Thank you so much, Jason Chen. We are very happy to have all this AI power coming to us. Talking about AI power, we cannot forget about NVIDIA. We are very happy to have our friends from NVIDIA to join us on the stage today. Adam. Adam Foat from NVIDIA. Hey there. Good morning. How are you doing? Hello, Jason. Thank you so much. It's an absolute pleasure to be back here at IFA in 2026, and for you to invite me back on stage. Always. Thank you. You're always welcome. Jason, we just heard about your new small form factor PC. This uses our new RTX Spark super chip. Why don't I tell you a little bit more about why that's so. Please. First and foremost, it is RTX. This is going to be an incredible platform for all your creative and gaming needs, right? You are going to be able to render massive 90 GB 3D scenes with full ray tracing. You are going to be able to edit 8K videos with NVIDIA's 4:2:2 encode 8K video and decode. Yep. Because our computing power. Exactly. You are going to be able to play all of your AAA titles at fantastic frame rate at 1440p. What also makes this product special is the fact that it has been designed to run agentic AI. What does that mean? It means you are going to be able to run the most advanced 120 billion parameter agents locally with context lengths of 1 million tokens, which is huge. When needed, you can be able to run on-site. Exactly. You are going to be able to run all of your cutting-edge models locally. These models have been trained on CUDA GPUs, so you just know you are going to have fantastic reliability and stability. This platform runs Windows, Microsoft Windows on ARM, so it is really important that we have a strong ecosystem. That is why we have partnered with our friends at Microsoft to make sure that all of your favorite apps, frameworks, models, agents, they all run fantastically well on RTX Spark. For creative, we have worked with the likes of Adobe, Blender, CapCut, ComfyUI, to make sure they run. DaVinci is. Absolutely already involved. To make sure they run fantastically. Engaged Well, yeah. For AI, you know what, it's really important that we make sure this is a fantastic AI developer platform that runs on Windows. We have made sure that with CUDA acceleration, we can optimize key AI frameworks. Not just CUDA, but CUDA acceleration. Yeah, exactly. Key for AI frameworks and for the developer tools as well. For gaming, of course, we're working with all the developers to make sure that your favorite games, latest titles all run fantastically well, like Fortnite, Valorant, League of Legends, PUBG all run on that RTX ARM platform. That's fantastic. You know what, Jason Chen, for creators, this is a great platform. It's an absolute beast. It is. The reason for that is because of those rich RTX features that you get with it. You can use the Blackwell encode decode, so that gives you support for 422 and AV1 support. With NVIDIA Broadcast and RTX Video AI effects, you are going to be able to deliver industry-leading broadcast and live streaming capabilities. The CUDA acceleration. CUDA acceleration, that is going to give you the best performance for your AI image and video creation. Using NVENC4 natively, you know that you're going to have fantastic performance and efficiency. Of course, we're going to have full support for NVIDIA OptiX and DLSS. What that means is you're going to be able to accelerate your final renders and have interactive viewports in your favorite tools. That's great. Absolutely. I think what's most exciting about this platform is actually how you're going to be able to interact with it. Agents, they're going to be like your teammates. All right. You are going to be able to help people create content. You are going to be able to help people code. You are going to be able to run this across all of your Windows applications. Of course, you can run this both locally and in the cloud. A hybrid model. That is right. But running locally gives you a lot of advantages, right? Of course. So- Security, control. Absolutely. Yeah, privacy. Yep. Okay? Always on. Correct. You are going to have access to your local files much more efficiently. And of course, you can run this at all times without that worry of any token cost. That is all you own. All of that, if you bring all that together, that is what makes this such a special and exciting platform, right? It is efficient, it is always on, and it is ready for what is next. Jason Chen, I am really excited that we can take this and launch this next chapter with Acer, and I look forward to what we can do. Very exciting. Thank you very much, Adam. Jason, thanks so much. Thank you. Thank you. For that, I would like to bring more device for AI, Diana. What happens now when we bring the same idea to businesses? Meet the Acer Veriton RA110 AI Mini Workstation. Inside we can find an Intel Core Ultra 3. It looks like a little guy, but actually. It is indeed. powerful. Indeed. Inside we have the built-in Intel Arc B390 GPU. Businesses have a lot of questions around being AI ready. With this device, we open up new possibilities because now with up to 96 GB of dual-channel memory, it can support up to 120 billion parameters for AI models and power agentic AI across hybrid environments. This small device, Jason, is also Copilot+ PC. This means that it can run AI-augmented application on Windows efficiently, giving, for example, creators or engineers the power to have those AI workloads, especially with 3D visualization or engineering. This unlocks new possibilities for AI-driven innovation because now we're removing here another barrier, deployment. With Acer Qubic Claw, you can bring AI agentic easier into everyday business activities. With one-click installation, easy setup, and ready-to-use AI business tools, you can make AI work for you. It helps AI reason, plan, and act to automate those tasks by combining local and cloud intelligence. It helps you find the right balance between powerful privacy and efficiency. That's important. Indeed. Small businesses do not have to wait to become big companies before starting to use AI. They can start right away, and that is indeed a really powerful shift here, Jason Chen. That is very exciting. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you, Diana. I am sure you are all ready for the mainstream Acer product, the Swift. Let us look at the video. A few months ago, we launched Swift Air 14. Today, we are ready to expand it. Diana. Indeed. Breaking barriers for us is really important. It isn't just about adding more power. It's about great technology should fit into your everyday life and not the other way around. That's exactly the idea behind the Acer Swift Air. We're bringing you today the Acer Swift Air 16. So a bigger screen with the performance you need in a remarkably thin, lightweight, all-aluminum design. You have now the big screen experience, but without the big screen package. We want to make technology easier to live with. This device, up to a whole 3K OLED display. It's all packed in a body that's just under 13.5 millimeters thin. Thin enough to forget it's there, but powerful enough to remember why you brought it with you. Because inside, we have the Intel Core Series 3 processor that keeps performance moving right along with you. Jason, lighter doesn't have to mean less capable. Here you see we wanted to make it a bit more personal because great technology should fit into your everyday life and not the other way around. The Acer Swift Air 16 comes with multiple color options, and it doesn't have to be just another gray box. It's a beautiful machine with wonderful finishing. Indeed. The Acer Swift Air 16, you have more screen, more freedom, but less weight. Thank you, Diana. Thank you, Jason. Thank you. We achieved this wonderful device. We cannot do it without the industry cooperation. For that, I would like to invite our friends from Microsoft, Mark Linton, to join me on the stage. Mark. Mark, how are you? Jason, I am good. How are you? Wonderful. So far so good. It is very good. It is great to be here at IFA with everyone and frankly, to celebrate Acer's 50th birthday. Microsoft is 50 as well, so we share that in common. We go back many decades. Thank you for the partnership. Thank you. I thought we would have a little fun here and go back in time to one of the first projects that Acer and Microsoft did, which was the MPF-II PC that you can see behind. Wait, that's way before my days. Way before you, and mine too, although I did start programming on a very similar-looking device. It ran MS-DOS. It had an Intel 8088 processor. It had 256 KB of RAM, if you can believe that. At that time was big. That's right. It was big at that time. Not one, but two 5.25-inch floppy drives, and don't forget a 10 MB or a 20 MB hard drive. Oh, now the memory is coming back. Floppy drives. Yes. There you go. One of the very early designs, and of course, if you fast-forward to today, look at some of the designs that we're launching together with Acer. It's just amazing. If you look at the AI capability now that you can have in small form factor devices, really you've got the Veriton RA110, which is an exciting offering there for small form factor capability with Copilot+ on it. You've got the Acer Swift Air 16 that we spoke about in the middle, Swift Air 16, which is a great option, larger screen, very thin and light, very metallic. Jason and I were just talking, the retailers around the world are really excited about this product, not only for the beautiful design, the capability that it has, but of course at an affordable price. Very well accepted. Yeah, very well accepted. We are excited there. Then you heard from the NVIDIA team on the SFF RTX Spark. I will talk about what we are doing in AI, but just think, this is essentially getting to supercomputer capability on the desktop. If you want to do AI work, including up to frontier-like models, 120 billion parameter, you need that workhorse with unified memory to enable that AI capability, and it is so exciting to see this launch right now because we are going to give developers, creators, and builders what they need to run AI workloads right on their desk as well. We are seeing the AI usage is pushing more and more from the cloud to on-site to the edge. Yeah. It is coming. Absolutely. Coming to becoming a hybrid AI computing model. Very much so, and we are seeing the customer demand there. I will talk a little bit about unmuted intelligence in a moment, but that is how we think about it. These powerful PCs can do so much. Why not offload to the PC for your AI workloads and creator workloads? Of course, Windows is a place where people go to create, to be productive, and to get more done. When we think about it, we have over 1 billion users on Windows 11 around the world, and those users create, play, code, work, learn, have fun on their PCs. Really, we are innovating there for all of these customer types. Really, with AI, we want to fuel the ambition, that human ambition to get more done, to have technology help you no matter what you are looking to do. We are innovating in a number of ways. We are innovating in new experiences that help you be more productive and creative. We are weaving AI into not only the user experience, but also the platform. Finally, we are continuing to improve on the fundamentals. We have made significant gains on things like boot time, Windows Hello responsiveness, working on 8 GB. We are optimizing so that 8 GB of RAM runs great on machines as well. We are helping users customize their machine more. If you like your taskbar on the left-hand side or up the top, you can do that again. We are listening to customer feedback, continuously improving Windows, and you will see those updates as Windows just gets better as the updates come through. All of this, of course, needs security and the underpinnings there. We continue to innovate on the security capabilities of Windows with secured-core PCs and secure enclaves on the motherboard as well. Lots of innovation happening, and we continue to invest. One of the big areas that we are talking about now is AI and what we can do for unmuted intelligence. If you think about it, we talk about unmuted intelligence on every desk and in every home. If you remember when Bill Gates was the boss of Microsoft, it was about a PC on every desk and every home. Not long ago. Yeah, not long ago. Now we are talking about unmuted intelligence. What do we mean by that? We mean that these powerful PCs can complement what you do in the cloud, but you shouldn't have to go to the cloud for models that you can use every day. What if your PC were powerful enough, and essentially you can change your token economics by running it locally on your PC? Small language- Ladies and gentlemen, it's all happening real time. All happening real time. Small language models, larger language models, 120 billion parameters is nothing to sneeze at. Again, you will be able to do that right on your desktop. Of course, you use the power of the cloud to support it. What is Microsoft doing to make Windows the best platform for AI? We have three main areas that I will talk to you today, and you will hear more from us in October. We have our Ignite conference in November as well. We are going to talk about more of the software capability, but really I will frame it as three things, a streamlined experience to help builders build faster and create. We have developer mode, so developers can boot right into a dedicated shell. Everything is optimized for terminals and command line interfaces. We have improved Windows Subsystem for Linux. There's so many things that we're doing there to make Windows a great home for developers to develop. The second one is that customers are very clear. I don't want to let agents just run loose across my corporate network. I need security and manageability because I want to use the power of these clouds, of these long-running agents, but I don't want to let go of my policy and security. Take it under control. Exactly. You'll be able to, in Windows, isolate and containerize the agents through MXC, which is a new technology for containerization. You'll be able to manage them and apply policies, and then event and audit and log what those agents do, all within Windows as a security construct. We've done that in partnership with NVIDIA and our silicon partners across the ecosystem to make sure it works securely and it's well-managed. The final one, of course, is about the AI platform itself. You can choose models through Microsoft Foundry on Windows. We have inbox models that we include as part of Windows, but then also you can run Windows AI subsystems to make sure that you've got the harnesses and orchestration that you need as well. Again, all wrapped around with security there to make sure that your AI workloads are known, are secured under policy, and how you want them to run as well. Look, it's an exciting time. We have so much more coming that I couldn't talk about today, but over the coming months, you'll see those developer enhancements, platform enhancements. We're so excited that we're on this journey with Acer. The innovation that you see here is just the start. We have so much more coming. Thanks again. Congratulations. Yeah, all coming. They are all coming together. Very good. Thank you, Mark. Thanks, Jason. Thank you, Microsoft. For the mainstream computer, notebook PC, years ago, we launched our first less than 1 kg thin and light notebook. Until today, we have whole series less than 1 kg. I want to say we are the less 1 kg computers in the world. Today, we are ready to launch an even more significant one. Let's look at a video. Swift. Yes. During all these years, Blade 14. During all these years, Jason Chen, we were questioning ourselves, how light can light really go, right? We are never quite satisfied in Acer. That's why. Let's Less than 1 kg is not enough. Not enough, not enough anymore. Today, let's break our record once again. Let's meet the Swift Blade 14, just under 799 g. Wait, why not 100 g? Well, because every gram matters, right? Getting lighter and thinner, it's an easy headline, right? But how do you actually achieve it? That's exactly the challenge we wanted to solve here. We took our laptops, we looked at them, and we questioned ourselves. What can we remove from here without removing from everyday performance or experience that we want to give to customers? We did it through our design technology that we like to call the art of subtractions. This is exactly where materials come in. We use carbon fiber for lighter and structural strength, and magnesium alloy with integrating molding system. This kept our laptops strong, slim, but incredibly light. Because we don't want only to make laptops thinner. The result here is up to under 14 millimeters thin, but still runs on the Intel Core Series 3 processor. We are not sacrificing everyday performance at all. We use new material, we use all this technology to make it thinner, lighter, but not compromising on the performance. Indeed. We also have here a beautiful display, up to a 3K OLED display, giving you the freedom to choose lightweight and beautiful canvas. We said before that lighter doesn't have to mean less, so every gram that we removed here had to be earned. The outcome is a beautiful laptop that almost disappear in your pocket until the moment you need it. We've seen our Swift range today. Whether you want color and versatility from the Swift Air 16 or the ultimate lightweight companion in the Swift Blade 14, there's always a Swift made for you. Because laptops don't have to slow you down, they have to work and to move along with you. Wherever you go, whatever you do, there will always be a Swift just made there for you. Thank you, Diana. Thank you so much. Thank you very much. Let's turn to next chapter, the next generation of computing. Let's welcome Valerie back. Here I am, back on stage. All right. With the orange color jacket. I'm presenting Acer now. Thank you, Jason. I want to talk about Vero, one of my proudest baby. Yeah, that was years ago. We used PCR, I used recycled material to build Exactly a computer. That was back in 2021, to be exact. That is right. when Acer introduced Vero with a different way of thinking on how we design technology. Over time, that thinking has evolved from reduce, reuse, recycle. We call it three R. Yes, but now we go to repair. Further and upgrade. So it's ability and upgradability. We have four R and upgrade. That brings us to our next idea, build to last. Longer longevity. Exactly. Within Acer, we really want sustainability in the center of our thoughts. Now here comes a simple question: how can we make a great PC last even longer? From that statement, our engineers designed it for longer life from the material we use to how easily it can be repaired and upgraded. The material is still recycled material? Yes, but you will see. There is a bit of difference from the past. Repair becomes easier, and longevity is the bigger idea here. Of course. Let's have a look at the video. Let's look at the video. Vero 16 is actually a modularized notebook PC. Yes, we can say so. If you look at the back, you just simply have to snap open the latch, and you can see then I can remove it. If I can do, well then everybody can do. It gives you direct access to key components, so the SSD, the battery, and the IO port can be replaced or repaired. We are going even further. For example, the motherboard that you see can be adaptable across at least- Okay, the motherboard here. Mm-hmm. two generation. If you want to upgrade your PC, instead of replacing it, Vero 16 is the one. We should not compromise on the rest. You see here the material. I want to spend a bit of time. I still see a R mark here. Yeah. Recycled material. True. But remember, Vero used to be mainly with recyclable plastic. Plastic. The covers combine 50% of post-industrial recycled aluminum. It's metal. Metal with 50% low-carbon aluminum. You see as well, we have a powder-coated finish, so it can really survive years of daily experience, daily use. Longevity doesn't mean compromising on the experience. You still get a super nice, beautiful 3K OLED display, and of course, the latest Intel Core Ultra Series 3. Basically that's why Vero 16 is built to perform, built to evolve, and built to last. Built to last. We are very excited for this Vero 2.0. The next topic, let's start with, how do people read? Indeed. Talking about sustainability, let's continue with that question, how do people read? For centuries, I think the answer was quite simple. Books, magazine, and paper. Paper, because reading a paper book is natural and comfortable for your eyes. Yes. What if you could bring those advantages into a digital experience with no print and no need to recycle? We are talking about the E Ink, e-paper technology. That's where e-paper comes in. What's new this time? Well, meet the Acer EP130K. It's our new color e-paper display. What's new is the color, basically. We spend so much time of our day reading and learning on bright displays. This device gives you a more paper-like viewing experience while bringing color into it, and we also improved the refresh rate, so basically scrolling and moving, as you can see. It's touch panel and- It's touch panel You can manage it- But- On the screen. Yeah, exactly. The feeling is more natural, and then navigating through pages feels intuitive, and you can enjoy a more comfortable way of reading for longer. That is wonderful. It is designed for eye comfort, for people who have to read lots of documents for a long time. Exactly. Think about somebody who is preparing a thesis, for example, and needs to be working across multiple documents. Well, at least this gives another way to multitask without adding another conventional screen. That is why Acer EP130K changes how we experience the screen, but our next product can explain us where a screen can bring us. Okay, now we are talking about display, and get ready to say wow. Let us see the expansion for one, two, three. Wow. Try again. One, two, three. Wow. That is exactly the barrier we wanted to break with the Acer PD163Q P3 triple screen extender. This device gives you a triple full HD display in one foldable design. Think about it. Basically, you can have your video calls on one screen, your presentation on another, your notes on the third, and your data on your PC. It is a three-screen expansion. It up with the original notebook. It can go all the way up to four screens. Yeah, indeed. Wherever you are, you no longer have to leave your multi-screen productivity behind you. Your workspace goes wherever you go. Thank you, Valerie. Thank you. Thank you, Jason. Thank you. Those are designed for professionals, and for that, next, I would like to introduce our friend from Google, John Solomon, to talk to us. Hi, everyone. Thanks for the warm introduction. I am sorry that I cannot join you in person, as I always love spending time with my partners from Acer, but I do appreciate that you included me via a video. Acer and ChromeOS have a long and enduring partnership, and that partnership has never been stronger. Acer has been the number one ChromeOS OEM in the consumer segment since back in 2022, and the number one ChromeOS OEM in EMEA across all segments for over a decade. Acer continuously delivers these results by focusing on amazing innovation, products, and most importantly, customers. Well done, Acer. Now, I need to take a minute to talk about AI, the future of compute, and Google. We are living through an exciting and transformative time with AI, and Google is leading the way with innovation that is meaningful to our customers and partners like Acer. Our CEO, Sundar Pichai, recently said, "No technology has me dreaming bigger than AI." And personally, I feel exactly the same way. In our agentic Gemini era, devices can do so much more for our customers. We are bringing a new level of intelligence, and you will hear a lot more about that today. There has been unprecedented innovation in AI from Google happening at breakneck pace. As of today, when I recorded this video, we had just launched our new Gemini 3.5 Flash and Flash-Lite, which are cost-effective and highly efficient. We are seeing tons of demand for our workhorse Gemini Flash series because it hits the sweet spot of performance and cost. Though, given Google is moving at AI speed, there may already be a new model out by the time you see this. The Gemini app has officially surpassed 1 billion monthly users, making it the fastest-growing product in Google's history. Last year, you might remember I mentioned Circle to Search. This year I can say it's a massive hit. Billions of times every month, people are using it to find outfits, translate content, and discover new places. Over 15 years ago, Google reinvented laptops for the cloud-first world with the Chromebook. Now, with the shift from an operating system to an intelligent system, it's time for another fundamental reinvention. We're taking the best of Android, a modern mobile operating system with powerful apps, and combining this with ChromeOS, and we're bringing them together in a new category of laptops built with Gemini at the core, Googlebook. These are the first laptops designed for Gemini Intelligence from the ground up. You'll know it's a Googlebook by the unique glow bar, a statement both functional and beautiful. Acer is a critical partner in making Googlebooks real for our shared customers, and we can't wait for you to try an Acer Googlebook very soon. Congratulations on an amazing event, and thank you for your strong partnership. Google is an important partner. Chromebook, the next generation of Chromebook, the Googlebook. Let's take a quick look on Googlebook. All right. I know you have been waiting for a long time. It's now the gaming time. For gaming time, I'd like to introduce Jeremi to join me on the stage. Jeremi, introduce yourself a little bit. Hello, everyone. My name is Jeremi. I am head of marketing in Acer Poland, and also I am a gamer, so being here to present our newest gaming lineup for you is absolute cinema. It's natural for you to talk about your- Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Let me kick off things with display built around one simple idea. Why compromise when you don't have to? Yes, no compromise. On this presentation, zero compromise. This is the Nitro XV275K P3. The game changer is dynamic frequency range. When the details take priority, we have here 5K at 165 Hz. It's beautiful canvas, huge, sharp, and is dedicated for the creators. The moment speed matters more, Jason Chen, we have here QHD at glazing 330 Hz. Perfect speed for the gamers. We are not locked in into one experience, and that's only the half of the story. Tell us more. The next one is 2,304 zone Mini LED and VESA DisplayHDR. To picture that, bright explosion on the one side of the screen, deep shadow on the other. Brilliant highlights, dramatically stronger contrast, and even deeper blacks, all in 99% Adobe RGB coverage. Jason, one display, no compromise. We are just getting warm-up. Yes, sir, we are just getting started. The next device. From our love brand. When you can say that Nitro is for those who will do it all, this one is for the players who are competing to win, Jason Chen. This is Predator XB253Q U1. There is a number we change everything, 1,000 Hz. 1,000 Hz. That is for professionals. Yes, for the pro players. We have here up to 1,000 updates every single second, guys, because we know in Acer that in competitive gaming, milliseconds matter. Of course. This is the reason why we build it around a Focus 24.5-inch Esport display. Because we know that we cannot buy attention, we need to earn it. Raw speed is only the part of the equation. Jason, let's imagine that we are playing final match of the biggest esport tournament of our life. Huge pressure, right? We need to be laser-focused. This is the reason why we put here circular polarized technology. It's cutting a glare under bright lights. Like for example, today we have Jason. We don't see you guys. We need to manage. Going further, on that final match, we need see action sooner and gameplay need to be sharp when the actions ramp up. We have here time to response down to 0.1 millisecond, because we know that at this level in esport, the smallest detail matter, Jason. Of course. Yes. We need to compete. We need to compete to win, and that philosophy is built into each every Predator. That's fantastic. It's built to compete. Now let's look at the new gaming notebook. Yes, sir. This is new gaming notebook, and it has 3D. Jason, please meet Acer Aspire G 3D. 3D gaming notebook. Yes, and this- Try again. Let's do one, two, three. One, two, three. Wow. All right. Try again. One, two, three. Wow! 3D gaming notebook. Exactly. This 3D technology is on demand for you. We have here naked eye 3D on the stunning 16-inch 4K display. You have access to 3D without glasses, without any extra gear. We can say that is on demand, Jason. Okay, this is not thin and light, but it is actually not bad. It is not bad. You have here by one click 2D, second click 3D seamlessly. We can do 2D, we can do 3D, and we can even convert 2D content into 3D vision. Yes, sir. The source of the performance is AMD Ryzen processors with unified memory. We have done that because we need enough power to manage demanding creative and AR workloads. Jason Chen, it is not the specs which excites me the most. It is what people can finally see. Let us imagine an architect who is showing his 3D model of the newest building to the customers, finally in full scale, so he can see all the details. Let us go further. A student of the medicine who is exploring human body, finally in full depth, in full complexity. So Acer Aspire G 3D 16 is powerful tool to create, learn, visualize, and when the job is done, finally Yes, we do realize that to play from our field study, for gaming PC users, they also use the device for productivity as well. Yes, productivity tool, Jason. One screen, two dimensions, endless possibilities. That's exciting. Let's look at the next one. Yes, the mobile gaming, sir. Now coming to mobile gaming. Jason and all you guys, please meet Predator Atlas 7. It has small footprint, but serious Predator power. Yes, we managed it a little bit smaller, but we didn't dial any performance. What we have here, Intel Arc G-series processors with up to 24 GB of LPDDR5X memory. Yes, it fits in your hand. Yes, it is powerful. This power needs proper cooling, so we add here our Predator AeroBlade to decrease airflow by 10%. Everything is cool when you are playing on the move. The sweet spot is the screen. We have here 7-inch full HD, 120 Hz, 500 nits, and VRR support. It's beautiful, but we know that in handheld world, the biggest number isn't always the smartest numbers. On Computex, we ask our players what they want the most from the handheld, and the answer was clear: precision. Precision. We listen, and result is this. In Predator Atlas 7 and 8, you will find TMR joystick and Hall Effect triggers. They are designed to long time precision when you are playing on the move. Also, you can play instantly when you unbox your Atlas 7 because we have here Xbox Game Pass bundle. You can play from the day one. Jason, unleash play anywhere. Thank you, Jeremi. Thank you, sir. Thank you very much. This device is Microsoft Windows-based using Intel CPU. For that, I would like to introduce Sam Gao to join us on the stage. Sam, how are you? Jason, good. How are you? Okay, it's all you. Thank you. Thank you, Jason, and welcome. Good day, everyone. I'm super excited to be here today with Acer and the friends here. Let's congratulate Jason and Acer, our friends there, on their 50th anniversary one more time. Give them a round of applause. For the last 50 years, Intel has been there with Acer every step along the way. In my 20 years working with Acer, I have always found our friends at Acer are innovative and are fast. They always be able to take the greatest technology from Intel and turn those into great products. There are some examples on this screen. Acer's products is a testament of the strength of our partnership. From gaming to creators, from students to professionals, Acer builds system for people to work, to play, to learn, and to create. Across this portfolio, Intel Core products has always been the foundation. Built with Intel 18A process technology and designed for the future of AI workload, the new Intel Core and Core Ultra product families raise the bar across every single dimension of personal computing, from CPU to graphics, from AI acceleration, to platform responsiveness, and to battery life. Our vision of personal computing comes to life with Intel Core Ultra Series 3, codename Panther Lake. It combines the next generation of CPU cores, a leap in our Arc GPU performance, and an updated NPU. They gave Acer the flexibility to build systems that are faster, smarter, and more responsive. It is also efficient, enable thin and light designs, and great battery life all together. With Intel Core Series 3, codename Wildcat Lake, we are expanding exactly the same approach to the mainstream market. It leverages the same Panther Lake IPs, GPU, CPU, NPU, but also right sizes them for the mainstream segment. What makes the mainstream platform truly revolutionary is a result of a close partnership between Intel and Acer. Over the last 12 months or so, Intel and Acer brought the phone ecosystem and the PC ecosystem together. We fully utilize smartphone-inspired manufacturing efficiencies. We reduced BOM cost, and we brought the premium design language to Acer's Swift product line, both Air and the Blade designs. Let me just borrow one more time the Blade design, and you heard from Jason Chen, and this is less than 800 g light, less than 13 millimeters thin, and it can do video playback for close to 20 hours. Any single one of those you probably can do. When you put them all together, it's really hard. Matter of fact, this design is so light, it almost feels the way that when you hold it up, it can fly away. Our collaboration is not only on one or two generations of products or kind of products. The same spirit goes into all of Acer's product lines. For example, Intel Arc G3 is inside the Predator Atlas design you just saw. In the gaming, and in the productivity, and in the latest mini AI workstation. Intel has been on a long and brilliant journey together with Acer. Looking ahead, we will continue to be the platform foundation for the next generation of personal computing, build for the genetic AI era. Thank you, Jason Chen and Acer team. Let's continue our partnership in innovation in the past, innovation for today, and innovation for the future. Thank you. Thank you for the partnership. Sam, thank you. We are coming to the last product that we're going to introduce. We save the best for the last. Jeremi. Yes, here is our last twist. Ladies and gentlemen, please meet Project DualPlay Mini, our vision what can handheld become in the future. It is beautiful. I love this color. We have here all which is best in the handheld world. We have here TMR joystick with Hall Effect triggers, Intel processors, our Predator AeroBlade metal cooling. It is powerful and beautiful, Jason. It is called DualPlay. Exactly. I promise you something more, something even cooler. Jason, are you ready? I am ready. Are you ready? Yes. Please check this out. One and two. Here is the twist. Full keyboard, two fold-out speaker wings. At the couch is your console. During the flight is your productivity tool. On your desk, you can add monitor and other accessories. It's your PC. What it becomes is up to you. That's Project DualPlay Mini. Thank you, Jeremi. Thank you, Jason. Thank you very much.
