Ahead of CES 2015, Acer announced a handful of new products on Saturday, including two Chromebooks, a laptop with a 3D camera, improved processors, new monitors and more. The latest Acer devices will debut this week in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n
The Chromebook 15 has a larger-sized 15.6-inch HD display. As with all Chromebooks, it’s made to be cheap: Prices start at $249.99, with a 16GB SSD drive and 2GB of RAM. A release date has not yet been specified.<\/p>\n
The Chromebook 15 has a fifth-generation Intel processor, as well as 15 hours of battery life, according to Acer. The laptop also has the largest touchpad available on any Chromebook device.<\/p>\n
In addition, Acer is updating its current Chromebook 13 to include touchscreens. The new finger-friendly Chromebook 13 will be available later this month, and is set to retail for $329.99.<\/p>\n
Outside of Chromebooks, Acer announced its improved Aspire V 17 Nitro notebook, which will soon come with a 3D camera.<\/p>\n
According to Acer, users can interact with the computer (e.g. use web pages, navigate apps) without touching its keyboard.<\/p>\n
The Aspire V 17 Nitro can also generate 3D models for 3D printing. Exact pricing hasn’t been revealed, but it will be available this month.<\/p>\n
Acer is also including fifth-generation Intel Core processors (for all-around better performance on its computers) in a few of its models, as well as introducing new gaming monitors and a wireless projector.<\/p>\n
