Acer Introduces Predator ES Storm Pro E-scooter for Higher Performance Urban Mobility
Editor’s Summary
· The Predator ES Storm Pro is a performance-focused e-scooter designed for varied urban conditions. Its foldable aluminum frame, water-resistance rating, and long-range battery support both daily commuting and longer city journeys.
· Connection to the Acer eMobility app offers ride information, adjustable settings, and an electronic locking function.
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, February 09, 2026 Acer introduced the Predator ES Storm Pro, a new electric scooter built for higher-performance city riding. The new model expands Acer’s growing e-mobility portfolio, delivering smarter and more versatile options for navigating today’s urban environments.
The Predator ES Storm Pro is designed for riders who frequently cover longer or more demanding routes, including paths with mixed surfaces. It uses a 500 W rear hub motor with peak output of up to 1200 W and a 48 V electrical system to support quick acceleration and consistent speed across varied terrain. Multiple riding modes allow users to adjust responsiveness and prioritize either performance or efficiency.
For enhanced control on wet or uneven roads, the e-scooter combines a traction control system with 10-inch tubeless tires, front and rear suspension for improved stability, and a rear disc brake with eABS. This maintains stable road contact and provides reliable braking in busy city settings. The foldable aluminum frame balances riding stability and portability and folds for carrying over short distances or for storage in compact spaces at home, at work, or on public transport. It is rated IPX5 for water resistance.
In addition, RGB lighting elements aligned with the Predator identity enhance visibility and provide clearer signaling to other road users when braking or turning. A built-in holder for compatible smart tags enables riders to attach their own tracking accessory to support locating the e-scooter if it is misplaced, depending on the chosen tracking system.
The Predator ES Storm Pro offers a riding range of up to 60 km on a single charge, suitable for extended commutes around the city. Regenerative braking (KERS), in combination with the eABS system, recovers part of the energy used during deceleration and returns it to the battery.
Smart Connectivity for E-scooters Through Acer eMobility App
The Predator ES Storm Pro connects to the Acer eMobility app, which displays ride statistics and vehicle status, including approximate remaining range and battery information. Users can adjust selected settings and preferences directly through the app, and Predator ES Storm Pro riders can also personalize lighting effects for added style. The Acer eMobility app also includes an electronic locking function to support day-to-day security with a compatible smartphone.
Price and Availability
Exact specifications, prices, and availability will vary by region. To learn more about availability, product specifications, and prices in specific markets, please contact your nearest Acer office via www.acer.com.

The launch includes seven new screen protectors, a customisation partnership with ScreenSkinz, and a screen protection replacement program designed to give users lasting peace of mind and ensure the products they love stay safe, secure, and in the best shape.
Meet the ScreenForce Titan Lineup: The Ultimate in Full-Screen Protection
Titan SmartShield
Titan SmartShield serves as the premium rigid protector in the lineup, delivering aerospace-grade impact resistance and up to 18x the strength of traditional glass*. Engineered with a 9H surface hardness and rated for up to 6.5 ft / 2 m of drop protection**, Titan SmartShield offers exceptional durability without compromising clarity. An advanced anti-reflective coating preserves vivid colour and brightness in any lighting environment, while the anti-dust adhesive helps push away particles during installation for a flawless finish. The glass is manufactured with up to 60% recycled materials and is fully compatible with fingerprint sensors. A privacy version will also be available. Titan SmartShield launches in February 2026.
Titan LiquidGuard
Titan LiquidGuard is an innovative liquid screen protector that uses Nano-Titan Technology+, a proprietary fusion of a water-based German SiO₂, Graphene, and Nano-Titan Technology, to reinforce device displays at the molecular level, delivering 9H scratch protection without adding bulk. The oleophobic coating creates a smooth, smudge-resistant surface that maintains the device’s original look and touch sensitivity. Applied in minutes and backed by up to a $300 screen repair guarantee, Titan LiquidGuard offers a discreet, no-fuss approach to everyday screen protection. Titan LiquidGuard launches in February 2026.
Titan EcoGuard
Titan EcoGuard is made using advanced polymer materials infused with Nano-Titan Technology, a proprietary structure featuring high-density nano-reinforcement that delivers up to 5.9 ft / 1.8 m of drop protection***. These materials are collected from post-consumer sources and certified by the Global Recycled Standard (GRS). Built to flex under pressure instead of cracking, Titan EcoGuard offers industry-leading 7H rated scratch and impact resistance with ultra-thin construction, while an anti-reflective coating preserves the device’s natural look and precision touch response. The flexible, shock-dispersing surface is ideal for curved screens and high-use devices.
The Titan EcoGuard Collection Includes:
Titan EcoGuard Anti-Reflective Screen Protector
- – The foundational model is designed for full-screen, anti-reflective protection while preserving vibrant colour and crystal-clear clarity – even under direct sunlight. It is made with 97% pre-consumer recycled materials. Includes anti-dust installation adhesive and a tray-based alignment system made with recycled plastics.
- Titan EcoGuard Privacy Filter Screen Protector
- – Incorporates vertical-view privacy filtration to protect sensitive information from side-angle viewing. Ideal for use in public settings, during travel, or for confidential work.
- Titan EcoGuard Red Light Screen Protector
- – Utilises a light-conversion layer that converts harmful blue light into soothing, skin- and eye-friendly red light, supporting everyday wellness for users sensitive to blue light or those who frequently use devices at night. This invisible, colourless protection delivers 2x the red-light exposure vs. industry standards**** while maintaining a natural viewing experience.
All Titan EcoGuard screen protectors arrive in 100% recyclable packaging using FSC-certified paper. Each kit includes a microfiber cloth, dust removal sheet, and eco-friendly alignment tray for precise, frustration-free application. Titan EcoGuard is compatible with ultrasonic fingerprint sensors and engineered for next-generation device displays.
If It’s Broken, Fix It. Quickly, Easily, and Hassle-Free.
Doubling down on its commitment to delivering the highest quality product experience, Belkin introduces a new Wear and Tear replacement program in addition to its established product warranty. Launching this month, consumers can easily replace screen protection products compromised by everyday use and/or life’s inevitable accidents, directly on Belkin.com. The new process is straightforward, transparent, and most importantly, hassle-free.
Products will continue to be replaced at no cost, with a flat shipping and handling fee applied.
The program will be available in Australia, Canada, Germany, the UK and the US, for now, with plans to expand to other countries in the future.
Custom Screen Protection with Screen Skinz
Belkin is partnering with Screen Skinz to bring a new level of personalisation to screen protection. Coming soon to Belkin.com, customers will have the ability to create a custom design or choose from a curated collection of pre-made options, which will be etched directly onto their screen protector. The result is protection that is uniquely customised. Utilising Screen Skinz’ patented etching technology, designs are visible only when the phone display is off. When the screen is on, the design disappears to ensure a smooth, uninterrupted viewing experience while delivering trusted durability and peace of mind.
Custom screen protectors will be available for purchase to U.S. customers on Belkin.com by the end of January 2026.
