Acer bets on PC game streaming with a Linux handheld
TL;DR Summary
A Verge report says Acer is releasing the Nitro Blaze Link, a 7-inch Linux handheld designed for streaming PC games rather than local play, with 1GB RAM, 8GB storage, Wi‑Fi 6 and a 1920×1200 display. It’s due in Q4 2026, price not yet announced, and is pitched as a cheaper streaming-first alternative to traditional handhelds like the Steam Deck; it was announced ahead of Computex 2026 (not at the show).
