Acer will push smart watches in Computex

May 31, Acer said in Friday that the company will not launch any desktop computers and laptops at the Computex trade meeting in Taipei, China, in Tuesday, but Acer will launch its first smart watch, according to the Wall Street Journal website. Acer's first smart watch was named "Liquid Leap".

The industry believes that, as a PC industry heavyweight enterprise, in the upcoming heavyweight hardware exhibition will not show any form of PC products, it is indeed surprising. But in addition to smart watches, Acer will also launch 5 smartphone products, including inexpensive-model smartphones, including high-end smartphones that can support 4G networks.

Acer, unlike last year, at last year's Computex fair, Acer focused on showcasing its Tablet PC products. However, Acer is only planning to launch a 8-inch Android tablet this year.

Acer's first smart watch, it is said, will configure its own cloud-based applications and services.

The current momentum has clearly shown that Acer has seen growth potential in areas such as wearable smart devices, mobile devices and cloud services, and has not focused on traditional PC products that have declined. Of course, today's PC industry is also facing some major problems. Global PC shipments are likely to fall again this year by 6%, compared with a 10% drop in 2013, according to IDC's latest figures.

Credit Suisse also said in a recent study: "We expect large data and cloud services, mobile, and the introduction of LTE products to emerging markets, and the networking of things made up of devices such as new wearable smart devices and smart watches will remain the focus of this event (Computex)." "For now, PCs have made little profit for Acer, so it makes more sense to use resources to focus on products that produce huge profits, even though these investments are not now producing lucrative profits immediately," he said.
