Acer ePaper monitor

A Second Screen That Looks Like Paper

Acer's EP130K is a 13.3-inch portable ePaper monitor made for reading, writing, and long stretches of focused work. Its matte, glare-free panel trades the glow of a conventional LCD for a paper-like surface that remains comfortable outdoors and under harsh office lighting.

Color When You Need It, Detail When You Don't

The display switches between a 3,200-by-2,400 black-and-white mode and a 1,600-by-1,200 color mode with 4,096 colors. Both run at up to 60Hz, an unusually quick specification for ePaper, while touch and stylus support let the screen double as a place to annotate, sketch, or navigate directly.

The Image Stays Without Power

Because the panel is bi-stable, a page can remain visible after the monitor is unplugged. That makes it useful for reference material, schedules, sheet music, and other information that does not need constant animation. One USB-C cable can carry power from the connected device, keeping the portable setup tidy.

More Reader Than Movie Screen

Mini-HDMI, two USB-C ports, audio output, and a pair of one-watt speakers give the EP130K more flexibility than a basic e-reader. Its 20ms response time still points toward documents and deliberate work instead of action games. For anyone who spends hours beside a bright primary display, that narrower purpose may be exactly the appeal.
