Acer has introduced two new handheld gaming devices during IFA 2026, expanding its Predator Atlas line. The first is the Project DualPlay Mini, an 8-inch device that transforms between a gaming handheld and a mini-laptop using a flip-and-swivel mechanism. It includes a backlit physical keyboard and supports external displays, though the exact processor remains unspecified.
The second new device is a smaller 7-inch model in the Predator Atlas series. It runs Windows 11 and is powered by an Intel Arc G3 Extreme CPU and Arc B390 GPU. This model is expected to launch in the fourth quarter, following the release of the Atlas 8 this month. Pricing details for both devices have not been disclosed.
Both devices highlight Acer’s focus on hybrid computing, offering portability and performance. The Project DualPlay Mini emphasizes versatility with its dual-mode design, while the smaller Atlas model targets users seeking a compact yet powerful handheld experience.
