CES Innovation Awards:
The CES Innovation Awards is an annual competition that aims to recognise outstanding design and engineering across a wide range of consumer technology product categories. Acer’s stereoscopic-3D ConceptD 7 SpatialLabs Edition Laptop was named an Innovation Award Honoree, distinguishing itself amongst over 1,800 submissions.
The ConceptD 7 SpatialLabs Edition laptop brings glasses-free stereoscopic 3D to designers and developers. An ideal laptop for 3D modeling, the mobile workstation supports creators with Acer SpatialLabs, a suite of optical, display and sensory technologies with real-time rendering.
iF Design Awards
The iF Design Awards is an internationally celebrated design competition that has championed “Design for Good” since 1953, abiding by principles such as affecting social change through design and raising public awareness of the role design plays in the everyday lives of consumers.
Several Acer products earned iF Design Awards 2021 in recognition of their distinctive and well-crafted design, including…
ConceptD 300 Desktop: A unique workstation made especially for creators, offering the performance of a larger-sized device in a mid-sized tower that can fit into almost any workspace. The ConceptD 300 combines a 40-dBa quiet operation.

Its convertible form factor enhances the productivity of creative workflows, featuring multiple modes that allow for ergonomic and secure sketching from any angle.
Predator X34 S Gaming Monitor: A curved UWQHD gaming monitor with 98% DCI-P3 gamut coverage to offer gamers the ultimate in immersion.
