Real laptops have curves

Today Acer released their newest beast, the Predator 21 X. This new addition to Acer’s gaming-centric line of laptops and PCs is purportedly the world’s first laptop to have a curved screen. The Predator 21 X comes with a curved 21 inch IPS display with a resolution of 2560×1080 and a 120Hz refresh rate and supports NVIDIA G-SYNC for smooth and sharp gameplay.. The laptop also comes with a full-sized mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Brown switches that are RGB backlit and customisable through Acer’s in-house PredatorSense software. It also has a pretty peculiar numeric keyboard modular setup where you can flip the panel over to switch to a Precision Touchpad.

With the Predator 21 X, Acer aims to take it’s Predator brand position in gaming to a new level with its showcase of advanced technology and never-before seen innovation.

Under the hood the Predator 21 X sports a 7th Gen Intel CoreTM i7 processor that is overclockable, dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphic cards in an SLI setup and 64GB of DDR4-2400 memory. This is one incredibly powerful laptop.

Of course Acer isn’t pulling back any punches when it comes to the tech department on the Predator 21 X as the laptop also integrates Tobii eye-tracking technology. The eye tracker consists of illuminators and cameras that can help you identify enemies, aim, and take cover simply by gazing at objects on the screen.

Chan Weng Hong, Acer Sales & Services Sdn Bhd General Manager of Products, Sales and Marketing remarked,

The Predator 21 X along with Acer’s wide range of gaming devices reinforces our commitment to

premium gaming with discerning enthusiasts around the world in mind. The Predator 21 X is Acer’s

flagship gaming laptop and is advanced beyond anything available in the market today.

The sound on this ain’t no slouch either as the Predator 21 X comes packed with SoundPound 4.2+ (4 speakers and 2 subwoofers), 3-way audio and Dolby Audio for some serious eargasms. The Predator 21 X has five system fans on board with three of them being ultra-thin AeroBladeTM metal fans to keep your laptop cool.
