The Switch V 10 and Switch One 10 – A Perfect Mix of Power and Versatility

Both the Acer Switch V 10 and Switch One 10 feature Windows 10 and the latest quad-core Intel® Atom™ processors for best-in-class performance and productivity.

2. Pad: Remove the display and use it as a standalone touchscreen tablet. Excellent for entertainment so sit back to watch your favorite TV series or play games after a long day at school or work
3. Tent: Place the tablet and keyboard in a tent (or “A” formation) to use the touchscreen in tight spaces like on long train journey, cross-country airplane trip, or simply at home to view a recipe on a crowded kitchen counter
4. Display: This mode connects the tablet facing away from the keyboard to offer a sleek way to present videos at small events or other types of gatherings

Available with metal covers in five eye-catching colors (Pearl White, Shale Black, Coral Red, Peacock Blue and Navy Blue), the Switch V 10 is an ideal choice for students and young professionals thanks to the fast data transfer, high-resolution video output and convenient charging of the USB Type-C port. The touch display panel on Switch V 10 is covered by Antimicrobial Corning® Gorilla® Glass, which contains an antimicrobial agent to help protect the surface from odor and stain causing microorganisms and reduce their growth on touch surfaces.
