Being the world’s first curved, 21:9 screen on a notebook, the Predator 21 X aims to be a portable, no compromise gaming solution whilst doing so in standout fashion. Perhaps the jewel in Acer’s CES crown, and certain anomaly in the notebook landscape, is the Acer Predator 21 X. Both panels tout 1000:1 contrast ratios and 1ms response times.Īvailability of the XB252Q and XB272 commence in February and prices start at $550 and $680, in that order.

Maximum resolution for both displays is 1920x1080 at 240Hz. Both displays use a TN panel not surprising, given the 240Hz refresh rate. The Predator XB252Q is a 24.5” display, while the XB272 is a 27” version.
The second additions to the Predator display line up are two different displays, with the only distinct difference being size.

Eye tracking can adjust camera angles and sound based on where the user is looking. Perhaps the most unique is the Tobii Eye Tracking technology, which is aimed at adding a new input modality. Connectivity offered is DisplayPort 1.2a, HDMI 1.4, 4x USB 3.0 ports, and audio output. The Z301CT features a swivel stand as well as VESA mounting support. Acer touts 100% saturation of the sRGB color space and 16.7 million reproducible colors. Resolution comes in at 2560x1080 and has viewing angles of 178°. The VA panel also contributes to the slower (in comparison with the XB2 series) response time of 4ms. The VA panel type doubtless affords the Z301CT the high refresh rate (200Hz) and contrast ratio of 3000:1. The Z301CT features a 30” display and utilizes an 8-bit VA panel.
