Acer is a well-known brand for computing products. The Taiwanese company has its presence in almost all nations and sells a wide variety of products. According to the latest information, the firm may soon enter the smart TV category in India.

According to a report by 91Mobiles, Acer will soon launch its smart TVs in India. As per the sources of the publication, these televisions will debut in the country before the Diwali festive season.

Unfortunately, the report does not mention anything about these products. We neither know the specs nor the sizes it will come in. But since Acer is known for affordable products, we can expect its TV models to be targeted at budget-conscious buyers.

In other words, the upcoming Acer smart TVs will likely compete against the televisions from Xiaomi, TCL, OnePlus, and realme to name a few. Like these brands, Acer might also use Android TV operating system with support for the leading streaming services.

As far as sizes are concerned, we can expect these smart televisions to arrive in sizes ranging from 32-inch to 55-inch. The company might even release a 65-inch variant as its popularity is growing.

Since the launch timeline for Acer smart TVs in India is said to be before Diwali, they could launch as soon as next month (August) or as late as a few weeks before the festive season.
