Acer Announces Price Hike on PC Products Effective Feb 20, 2026

Acer will raise prices of laptops, desktops and tablets on its online store from Feb 20, 2026 due to soaring memory and SSD costs, mirroring recent hikes from ASUS, Maingear and Framework.

Reason for the Price Revision

Acer cites the sharp rise in DRAM and NAND‑based SSD prices as the primary driver behind the upcoming price adjustments. The component cost surge has been affecting the entire PC ecosystem, prompting manufacturers such as ASUS, Maingear and Framework to revise their pricing on a near‑monthly basis.

Products Affected

The price revision will apply to all Acer devices that incorporate memory or SSD storage, including:

  • Laptops
  • Pre‑built desktop PCs
  • Tablets
  • All‑in‑one systems

Peripheral items such as keyboards, mice and monitors are explicitly excluded from the hike.

What to Expect

The exact percentage increase has not been disclosed and will likely vary by model. Consumers have roughly one week before the new pricing takes effect on Acer’s official online store (Feb 20, 2026). Buyers are advised to monitor the store for specific price changes on the devices they are interested in.
