Background and Identification

Acer is a multinational electronics corporation whose products include desktop and laptop computers, tablets, smartphones, virtual reality devices, and more. Tablets are a type of mobile computer that normally consist of a small screen, but are often compatible with a detachable keyboard. Tablets were extremely popular in the 2010s, although their popularity has decreased with the rise of smartphones. Despite this, tablets are used by many people and are sometimes preferred for things like online reading, where their larger screens make them easier to use and less eye-straining. Although they lack the processing power of a laptop computer, tablets are also very portable, and are popular replacements for small laptops.

Acer tablets are usually part of the Acer Iconia series, which was first announced in 2010. This series includes a few convertible laptops and a smartphone, but is mostly made up of tablets. Acer continued to release Iconia tablets of varying sizes and capabilities until 2017. Most Acer Iconia tablets use the Android operating system, but a few models run on the Windows OS instead. To identify which of the many Acer tablet models you want to repair, you’ll need the model number and serial number. These can usually be found on a sticker on the back of the tablet or on the underside of the MicroSD/SIM card cover. Acer support has more detailed information on finding the model number to get support documents directly from their website. For Acer Windows tablets, you can use the Acer Care Center to locate your serial number.
