2. It can be used in portrait, landscape, and ‘tent’ modes for versatile viewing options.
3. The monitor features dual IPS-LCD screens with FHD resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate, but has limited color accuracy (72% NTSC).
4. It includes dual speakers, although their output is low at 2 watts each, which is better than some competitors.
5. Connectivity options include two USB-C ports for charging and an older HDMI 1.4 port, with a release price of €399 in July 2025.
Acer has expanded its Computex 2025 display with the PD163QT, a new device that aims to boost user productivity by offering a second and even a third screen upon setup.
Versatile Orientation
This portable monitor can be positioned in both portrait and landscape orientations, thanks to its sleek built-in stand. Additionally, it features a ‘tent’ mode, allowing another user at a table to access one of the screens conveniently.
Display Specs
Both screens are constructed with IPS-LCD technology, boasting the same FHD resolution and a conventional 60Hz refresh rate. However, compared to other dual portable monitors, it may fall short in color accuracy, covering only 72% of the NTSC color gamut.
The PD163QT comes equipped with dual speakers, which is a plus since some competing models lack even a single speaker, even though their output is limited to just 2 watts each.
Connectivity Options
This monitor is fitted with two USB-C ports, which can also be utilized for charging. An HDMI port is included as well, but it is of the older 1.4 version.
Acer might offset the PD163QT’s shortcomings with its pricing, which is set at €399 upon its release in July 2025.
