Acer’s C350e portable projector pairs a 1080p image with a detachable AI Badge that can act as a remote control and provides access to Google Gemini. Announced as part of Acer’s IFA 2026 lineup in Berlin, the projector is scheduled to reach EMEA markets in the first quarter of 2027, with prices starting at €199.
The C350e can project an image up to 100 inches at a 1.3:1 throw ratio. It uses a 1,920 × 1,080 resolution LED light source rated for 30,000 hours, with Acer quoting 350 ANSI lumens of brightness as well as 8,000 LED lumens. The 350 ANSI-lumen figure means projection quality will be most suitable in darker rooms.
A bright yellow body and orange stand set the C350e apart from conventional business-oriented projectors. The stand rotates through 360 degrees and supports up to 120 degrees of tilt. Automatic vertical keystone correction and four-corner adjustment are included, while horizontal keystone correction is manual.
Acer lists the projector at 820 g, with dimensions of 137.5 × 135.7 × 191.9 mm. When it is not being used for projection, the device can display personal photos and widgets.
Connectivity includes HDMI 1.4, USB-A 2.0 and a 3.5 mm audio jack, alongside Bluetooth 5.4 for wireless headphones or other audio devices. Audio is handled by two integrated 3 W speakers.
The C350e follows Acer’s €149 HD1500 projector, introduced earlier in the year with Netflix and YouTube integration. Acer is positioning the new model around its more expressive hardware design and the Gemini-enabled AI Badge, though further details on its software capabilities are not yet specified.
