Acer used IFA 2025 to roll out new Android tablets, two minimalist Amadana monitors, a 26.5-inch OLED gaming display, and a compact Wi-Fi 7 mesh router. The Iconia X line brings AMOLED and OLED screens, plus an optional keyboard and stylus.
Iconia A targets big-screen media and study. The OLED monitor chases high-refresh gaming. The router supports dual-band Wi-Fi 7 with mesh capabilities. Launch windows are EMEA-focused, with UAE pricing guidance below.
Iconia X series: AMOLED/OLED screens and on-device AI
The X12 goes slim with a 12.6-inch WQXGA AMOLED display and a MediaTek Helio G99. The X14 scales up to a 14-inch OLED with an NPU for on-device AI tools. Both run Android 15 and support expandable storage.

Iconia A series: big screens with built-in kickstands

For homes and dorms, the A series is about size and ease. The kickstand removes the case. The IPS panels maintain wide viewing angles, and Wi-Fi 6 should provide better performance on congested UAE networks.
Monitors: Amadana minimalism and a 280 Hz OLED option
Acer showcased two Amadana displays with clean designs, along with an OLED gaming-grade panel. The portable 15.6-inch Amadana is handy for dual-screen work on the go. The 27-inch Amadana model suits desks that want FHD at high refresh. The CE270U Z aims at enthusiasts.
