JOHANNESBURG (April 28, 2017) Yesterday Acer announced a new series of 4K display products at its next@acer global press conference in New York, including the new H7850 and V7850 4K projectors for home cinema enthusiasts as well as the new ProDesigner™ PE320QK 4K LED monitor for creative professionals. The projectors features 4K Ultra High-Definition (UHD) resolution, HDR- and Rec. 2020-compatibility and AcuMotion technology to deliver exceptional value and performance to mainstream audio/video enthusiasts. The new ProDesigner PE320QK monitor incorporates Acer HDR Xpert™ technology for exceptional contrast, supports USB Type-C and features an attractive ZeroFrame design to appeal to design-minded professionals.
“With 4K content being increasingly available through the rise of streaming services, Acer is gladly expanding our display portfolio for both media consumption and content creation,” said Victor Chien, President of Digital Display Business, Acer Inc. “Through a solid spectrum of projectors and monitors, we deliver premium visual experiences catering to a wide range of user demands.”
Immerse Yourself into the 4K Experience
As the Acer H7850 and V7850 project razor-sharp images onto screens of up to 120-inches. Users can experience the stunning image quality that 4K resolution brings, up close and personal. With more than 8.3 million on-screen pixels, both the H7850 and V7850 feature TI XPR technology, which ensures that fine image details come alive. With the prevalence of online video services, premium 4K streaming content is more accessible than ever before. These projectors will allow users to enjoy the ultra-high resolution experience on the big screen without venturing out to the cinema.
HDR-Compatible for Stunning Reality
Both the Acer H7850 and V7850 are HDR-compatible (High Dynamic Range), reproducing a greater dynamic range of luminosity with expanded contrast and a wider range of brightness. The projectors adjust to brighter scenes so the highlights glimmer with detail, while in darker scenes, rich blacks are preserved and details typically hidden in the shadows are enhanced for greater overall luminance. Both projectors provide a DynamicBlack™ contrast ratio up to a whopping 1,000,000:1 thanks to frame-by-frame analysation and dynamic adjustments of lamp power for black-level optimisation.
Catering to a wider range of user preferences, the H7850 has a brightness advantage with a 3,000-lumens rating. The V7850 includes a RGBRGB colour wheel which helps produce a wider colour gamut, and supports the Rec. 709 standard to faithfully reproduce original colours and tones, staying true to the film director’s intentions. Both models are compatible with Rec. 2020 signals, the UHDTV standard. The H7850 also features a sleek, elegant industrial design that was honured with a Red Dot Award: Product Design 2017.
Smooth Action with AcuMotion
The H7850 and V7850 projectors also support Acer’s proprietary AcuMotion technology that enhances picture clarity in fast-moving scenes and reduces motion blur. It generates intermediate frames and inserts them between existing ones, which prevents unwanted flickering, making it ideal for watching the big game or action movies. Both projectors include Acer’s ExtremeECO power-saving feature that can reduce power consumption by up to 70% and extend lamp life by up to 15,000 hours.
ProDesigner™ PE320QK Monitor for Content Creators
Acer’s new ProDesigner PE320QK monitor features ultra high-definition 4K resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels) for displaying high-quality images in amazing detail. Photographers, video editors and others working in creative industries will appreciate the monitors’ HDR Xpert™ technology, which enhances brightness for a vivid contrast between lights and darks, while covering a wider gamut for truly vibrant colours. The monitor’s sleek ZeroFrame designs virtually eliminate the screen bezel for a seamless visual experience, adding a new style benefit with a touch of modern charm to the office. It includes a reversible USB-C port for easily connecting and charging devices to reduce desktop clutter, supporting power delivery of up to 85W. The ProDesigner PE320QK monitor produces accurate colours with a low Delta E < 1, supporting 130% of the sRGB and 95% of the DCI-P3 color gamut. The monitors also sport Acer VisionCare technology to reduce eye strain and fatigue during long editing sessions.
