It’s early days here at Computex 2026 , but the PM131QT is the most interesting portable monitor I’ve seen so far, in part because of its odd collection of features. Its squat form factor and kickstand make it well-suited to living under a primary desktop monitor for things like chats or at-a-glance data displays. And curiously, Acer has put pogo pins on the bottom for a keyboard, which might make it useful for plugging into a smartphone for some productivity work. But Acer didn’t have the keyboard available at the show.
It also has a headphone jack on top, along with control buttons, and two USB-C ports alongside what looks like Mini-HDMI on the back in a recessed area. There’s a nice metal kickstand for desk use, but Acer says it can snap onto things magnetically, as well. This puts it in direct competition with Corsair’s Xeneon Edge , which is a little larger, at 14.5 inches, and sports a 2560 x 720 resolution, but also costs more, at $249. Acer says the PM131QT will sell for $179 in the U.S., starting in Q4 of 2026.
