Ahead of this year's IFA expo in Berlin, which opens officially September 2 and runs through September 7, 2016 computer manufacturer Acer has unveiled a raft of attention-grabbing laptops, from a curved-screen gaming machine to two laptops with 360° hinges.
Among them, the Predator 21 X puts a curved screen and two GTX 1080 graphics cards into a beefy 8kg laptop, as well as an i7 K-series processor, a mechanical keyboard, Tobii eye-tracking, 4 spare RAM slots, and other accoutrements.
At the other end of the scale is the 1.1kg Swift 7, a $999 Windows 10 portable which lays claim to being the first laptop less than 1cm thin -- 9.98cm, to be precise.
The versatile Spin 7's display hinges allow it to rotate through 360°. It has a touch screen and a keyboard that can effectively double as a screen stand or go further and tuck out of the way. It's $1,199 but does run on an i7 in comparison to the Swift 7's i5.
More modestly priced (and specc'd) is the Chromebook R 13, which also totes a touch screen and a 360° hinge, but starts from $399 instead.
