Acer unveiled the Project DualPlay Mini at IFA 2026, a gaming handheld that converts into a mini laptop. The Predator-branded concept features a dual-fan cooling architecture similar to the Predator Atlas 8. Designed to transition fluidly between handheld and laptop modes, it includes traditional controllers for handheld use and a backlit keyboard and mouse for FPS and strategy games.

The device can connect to an external display for laptop productivity. Embedded on the back panel are the words "Acer 50 since 1976" commemorating the company's 50th anniversary. Acer has not disclosed weight or detailed specifications, as the DualPlay Mini remains a concept product that may never reach market release.

The flip-and-swivel design aims to offer both portability and desktop replacement functionality in a single device.
