Acer's Nitro Blaze: A Game Changer in Handheld Gaming PCs
Unveiling Acer's Nitro Blaze
Acer has finally joined the handheld gaming PC fray with the Nitro Blaze, a sleek device that aims to compete directly with the Steam Deck and Asus ROG Ally. Featuring a seven-inch 1080p IPS display with variable refresh rates up to 144Hz, this portable gaming device ensures smooth visuals while you game on the go.
Technical Specifications
- Processor: Ryzen 7 8840HS
- GPU: Radeon 780M
- Memory: 16GB of 7500 MT/s
- Battery: 50 watt-hour
- Storage: Up to 2TB SSD
Despite missing touchpads and back buttons, the Nitro Blaze compensates with two USB4 ports, allowing flexibility for charging and docking. Acer has opted out of a partnership with Microsoft for this release, which suggests no major UI enhancements for Windows gaming. However, the inclusion of dedicated mode switch buttons is a welcome feature.
