Acer Aspire R7 Laptop with Ezel Hinge and Pen Hands-On

By Anonymous -

Acer's Aspire R7 laptop came out some time ago, but the product has been upgraded, now that IFA 2013 has rolled around.

One of the new additions is an active pen, which visitors can lay their eyes and hands on at Acer's booth here in Berlin, Germany.

What I can confirm, though, is that Acer has updated the CPU to Haswell. The model in the gallery below runs a Core i7.

Still, at the
 end of the day, the Ezel hinge steals the show. It allows one to switch from laptop to tablet form whenever they want, with a single hand. The hinge even allows the keyboard half of the laptop to act as a stand when flipping the display backwards. Once the field of view flips in turn, you can use the 15.6-inch screen for drawing, watching a film, etc.

Android 4.3 shows up on Nexus 4 in Thailand

     A  Nexus 4  running build number JWR45B was spotted at the Thailand Mobile Expo recently labeled as Android version 4.3, suggesting the update to the OS could be right around the corner. While the validity of the sighting remains unconfirmed, we do get three shots of what could be the next version of Android: the Jelly Bean easter egg (confirming the update won’t be Key Lime Pie), the About Phone screen, and a slightly tweaked camera UI. It appears that Android 4.3 won’t come with a major design overhaul in tow and rather will be the sort of incremental update that was the move from 4.1 to 4.2. Major platform changes aren’t expected until Android 5.0, which could still be on track for a release this year, though closer to the holiday season. [via  XDA ]

IFA 2013: Acer's Mobile Product Collection Revealed

We've made it to Berlin a couple of days before the real action starts, because we have appointments at some nice, early launch events from  Samsung  and  NVIDIA , among others. Unfortunately, this means that most booths haven't even been built to completion yet.   So if you were hoping for some quick hands-on photos early on, you're not in luck. From what we've seen so far, they're all still in their crates.  That doesn't mean I don't know what they are though. I was able to find out some of the things we'll get a chance to hold in our hands over the next few days, like Acer's lineup.  So far, I can confirm the arrival of the 7.9-inch Iconia A1 tablet, the 7-inch Iconia B1 tablet, the Aspire R7 laptop (featuring that unusual but cool Ezel hinge), the Liquid S1 smartphone, and the Aspire P3 convertible ultrabook, and the Aspire S7-392 full-feature ultrabook.  Presumably, the Liquid S2 phone is in a box somewhere as well.
