Acer this week introduced its new high-end 2-in-1 hybrid PCs that will be available later this year.

The Acer Switch 5 will be aimed at users who require both portability and performance, and is based on Intel’s Core i5/i7 CPU while being paired with up to 8 GB of DRAM as well as up to 512 GB of solid-state storage.

To integrate a relatively powerful CPU while retaining moderate price, power consumption and long battery life, Acer had to give up a 4K display panel and a Thunderbolt 3 controller, which were key features of the Switch 5’s predecessor.

In addition, Acer announced its new inexpensive Switch 3 convertible notebook that in many ways resembles its more advanced brother.
