Welcome to Acer Corner. If you’re new to Acer, or landed here by accident while hunting for maple trees, don’t worry. Acer isn’t just a name on laptops, it’s an entire empire of brands, each tailored to a different user from grizzled gamers, to on-the-go professionals,  digital artists, and more. If you’re still befuddled, fear not, for all will be revealed in this article covering all of the Acer brand products. 

Read on for the lowdown on Acer’s entire extended family of products and services, from the familiar everyday laptops to premium creative tools and cutting-edge professional devices. Without further ado, let’s unpack the Acer universe and see what makes each branch of this tech family tree unique.

Acer

Before we discuss Predator, AOPEN, and SpatialLabs, let’s cover the fundamentals of Acer, the core brand. Acer’s mission has always been to break barriers between people and technology. Broadly speaking, Acer provides the technology that makes modern life, well, modern. Acer laptops, desktops, monitors, projectors, and accessories balance performance, portability, and price. 

Whatever your tech needs are, Acer’s main product line has got you covered. Aspire laptops maximize productivity at home or in the office, while the Swift range prioritizes portability and sleek design. For eco-devices with true green credentials, Acer’s Vero range ticks the sustainability boxes. Acer Chromebooks deliver hassle-free computing for students, cloud workers and anyone who needs out of the box performance. Acer is the foundation upon which all of the other brands are built.

Predator

When Acer decided to stride into the gaming arena, it didn’t just add RGB lighting and call it a day. Oh no, it spawned Predator, a brand forged specifically for all-round winners and esports professionals. Predator gaming machines pack a punch and are unapologetically powerful. These are devices that stand out from the crowd, if you’ve seen a Predator desktop or laptop you won’t soon forget it. 

Under the hood, it’s all about speed, control, and responsiveness: Intel Core Ultra processors, NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPUs, advanced cooling systems, and high-refresh displays. From the portable behemoths like Helios and Triton laptop lines to desk-dominating lightning-fast gaming monitors, every Predator product is engineered to prevail. Predator accessories include mechanical keyboards, precision mice, and even gaming chairs to complete the ecosystem. Predator means play without limits, whether you’re earning your crust in an online tournament or just taking over the world on a leisurely afternoon.

Nitro

If Predator is the great white shark then Nitro is the tiger shark: still powerful, but slightly less intimidating and friendlier on your wallet. Nitro was built for gamers who want high-quality, reliable performance without breaking the bank. For a clearer breakdown of the differences between Predator and Nitro, check out this informative article.

The Nitro family includes laptops, desktops, and monitors that make gaming accessible to the masses. If you’re just getting started gaming, or are a hobby gamer, Nitro delivers entry level excellence, with stylish design, solid GPUs, and efficient cooling all tuned for smooth gaming experiences. Nitro laptops like the Nitro V and Nitro 16 balance everyday productivity with serious gaming ability, helping you edit, stream, and play without breaking a sweat (or the bank).

Planet9

There are no physical products in the Planet9 world.  Acer’s esports platform is your ticket to stay ahead of the latest developments in gaming. Planet9 is equal parts blog, news hub, training ground, and community space, the connective tissue between Acer’s gaming hardware and the players who use it.

If you’re still with us, congratulations, for our final brand today is AOPEN, Acer’s displays and monitor specialist. Even if you haven’t heard of the name AOPEN, you’ve likely seen an AOPEN display, as they are the force powering much of the planet’s visual experience.

Originally a standalone company, AOPEN is now an integral part of the Acer empire, creating monitors that serve both commercial and gaming needs.

AOPEN also makes industrial PCs and all-in-one computers, so next time you see a gamer’s setup, retail store display, or office workstation, there’s a high chance it's and AOPEN!
