At Computex 2025 in Taipei, standout innovations included Acer's affordable smart ring, Asus's gamer-centric split keyboard, and MSI's AMD-powered Claw A8 handheld gaming device.
This year’s Computex in Taipei delivered a showcase of innovation, style, and gamer-first design. Here are some standout launches:
Acer’s titanium smart ring
Acer has entered the wearable market with a surprisingly affordable titanium smart ring. Offering heart rate, sleep, and SpO₂ tracking, it runs for four days on a single charge and skips the subscription model — a major win for casual health-conscious users.
Asus ROG Falcata split keyboard
Tailored for gamers craving flexibility, the ROG Falcata is a wireless, magnetically-connected split keyboard. It allows the right section to be removed, freeing up mouse space and enabling a more ergonomic setup. Launch is expected this summer.
MSI Claw A8 gaming handheld
MSI’s latest Claw A8 handheld runs on AMD’s Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip, with an 8-inch Full HD screen and 120Hz refresh rate. It supports up to 24GB DDR5 RAM and 1TB SSD storage, plus a built-in camera and mic — ideal for streamers and on-the-go gaming.
