Acer Revo One

Acer introduced an impressive portfolio of products at the Acer Global Press Conference earlier this year. Several of those products were officially revealed in Malaysia today – the Acer XR341CK curved monitor, Acer XB270HU gaming monitor and the Acer Revo One mini-PC.

The multiple-award winning Acer Revo One RL85 is powered by either the Intel Core i3-5005U or Core i5-5200U processor. The previous variant introduced two months ago was powered by an Intel Celeron.

The diminutive mini-PC measures 106.5 x 106.5 x 155mm but don’t let its size fool you. It’s packed with up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM, and supports two hot swappable hard drives to bring built-in storage up to 6TB. It also supports SSHD drives and includes an SD expansion slot.
