Acer announces the Acer Aspire Switch  12 with 5 modes of usage in one  notebook and a  vibrant 12.5-inch display. It also combines powerful computing with the newest  Intel® Core™ M processor and a Full HD display to provide users a  versatile device that helps boosts
productivity.

  Fluidly versatile

  Equipped with a unique kickstand design that features a magnetic and latch-less  detachable keyboard, the centerpiece of the Aspire Switch 12 is its ability to  easily transition between 5 distinct modes (notebook, pad,  display, tent and desktop). Through these 5 modes,
users can find a  configuration for just about any need and use it as a laptop, tablet with or  without keyboard, or desktop PC. It can also be optimized for sharing information  and viewing multimedia (display and tent modes) in conjunction with its dual  front-facing speakers for a rich and full audio experience on the go.

  The Aspire Switch 12’s detachable  keyboard can work connected or wirelessly and provides full-sized typing  comfort along with a pointing stick, for an enhanced navigation experience.  Users can also enjoy its 10-point touch controls on a larger screen and use an  optional Acer Active Pen1 for a more intuitive writing and drawing experience.

  Dashing display

  With a 12.5-inch Full HD (1920x1080) display with IPS* technology and Zero Air  Gap direct bonding technology, users can see everything clearly from wide  viewing angle, with vivid colors and detail and even in bright sunlight. For  added durability, the Aspire Switch 12’s
display is built with next generation  of Corning® Gorilla® Glass and treated with an anti-fingerprint  coating that reduces unsightly
smudges.

  Outstanding performance

  The Aspire Switch 12 is powered by the new Intel® Core™ M processor for a compelling combination of computing performance and stunning display graphics. The processor also  delivers  significant reduction in power consumption, allowing it to run up to 8 hours2  during video playback. What’s more, it also sports a fan-less design that makes  it whisper quite, while further complementing its reduced power  consumption. 

  To top off its high processing power  and outstanding graphics, the Aspire Switch 12 comes with two antennas; 2x2  wireless antenna technology processes data at up to twice the speed of  traditional single antenna solutions by forming a multi-input/multi-output  (MIMO)
setup for fast and reliable throughput. It also comes with micro USB 3.0 and micro HDMI ports.
