They are mostly known for their netbooks, laptops, desktops, Iconia tablets and their more recent Acer C7 Chromebook. however they have produced a fair amount of Android powered devices over the last few years.

Acer looks to be getting back in the green thanks to their adoption of Google’s Chrome OS and the release of their Chromebook back in November. The company had been reporting annual losses for the last two years. Since the launch of the Acer Chromebook in the U.S., it has claimed 5 to 10 percent...

Right out of the gate we can already hear people saying, “Dude, Nexus 7 is way better and cheaper. Why go with an Acer when you can have Nexus 7?”  For many people you are right. For others though there are still to many things missing on the Nexus 7 to make it their tablet of choice. Like...

Think back, way back, back to CES and Mobile World Congress. We realized that all was happening just 7 months ago, but in tech terms, that’s like 35 years. I am sure there is an equation for that. During that time we all got to see a little bit of the new Acer CloudMobile device. It was a stunning...

If you thought that Acer was going to only show off the CloudMobile at MWC, you were wrong. Many manufacturers will be bringing the heat next week and Acer is no exception. In a press release today they announced that another device, the Liquid Glow, would also be making an appearance in Spain. With...

Two weeks ago we got a brief look at Acer’s new CloudMobile device. Granted,  the device was off, but you could easily see why this won the outstanding achievement of design award. At that time a few small bits of spec information was available. Mostly the size of the device and screen size....

Acer is on a roll lately, bringing great looking tablets for all price ranges to consumers. Their latest tablet to clear the FCC is a mid-ranged device called the A510. This iteration sits squarely in between their low-cost A200 and the higher-end A700, which is not a consumer device. Bringing with...

Yesterday we caught wind that Acer had Ice Cream Sandwich updates slated to hit Australia and New Zealand in April for the Iconia A500. That came directly from the official company’s AU twitter account. Even though that is a few months away, it was good news for them. Being an American, we get...

Just the other day Acer dropped an update to the Iconia A200, giving the less expensive tablet a taste of the icy goodness that we all crave. Now they are telling the world that Ice Cream Sandwich is in the works for the Iconia A500, but that it won’t be ready til April. That is a pretty far gap...

Moving your newly purchased Acer tablet to build number Acer_AV041_A200_1.037.00_PA_CUS1. I am certain...

I don’t think many of you are strangers to cloud based services. We have a lot of it already running around Android like Dropbox, Box, Hi-Drive and SugarSync to name a few that pop into my mind. We also heard recently that Google is working on a cloud service beyond Google Docs and Google Music....

It is always nice to see a device get launched on time, or at least fairly close. Acer said the Iconia Tab A200 would be available January 15th and here it is the 20th and it has been made available to purchase through Best Buy. The tablet isn’t the cream of the crop mega powerhouse you would get...

Just a few days ago, we mentioned that Acer‘s Iconia Tab A700 tablet had leaked and was sporting a quad-core processor. Today, Acer had their premier event at CES 2012, and they showed off their new Iconia Tab A700, which failed to disappoint. It sports a beefy quad-core processor, presumably...
