Acer has been rather tight-lipped when it comes to product reveals at next@Acer, but we have seen chatter on social media about a "brand-new chapter" awaiting us. This seems to include brand new Nitro and Predator gaming laptops featuring up to 9th Gen Intel Core i9 processors. That's some serious power.

There's also a teaser about "counting down to 715," which includes a slim laptop outline and Chrome logo, and that likely means Acer is bringing a new Chromebook into the mix. This is, of course, all speculation, and we'll have to wait patiently for the official press conference to begin.
