The PC handheld space continues to grow, and the biggest of all is Acer’s new Nitro Blaze 11. As soon as I saw it announced at CES, I knew I had to try and get it in my hands, at least for the sheer curiosity of “Will this thing even fit in my hands?” The answer is yes — though kind of just barely.

Acer's Nitro Blaze 11 also features impressive specs on paper, and its 19.95-inch screen features a 2560x1600 resolution, a.k.a. a 4K display, with an AMD Ryzen 7 8840HS with 8 cores, AMD Ryzen AI with 39 AI TOPS, and AMD Radion 780M for graphics.

Acer is releasing an 11-inch PC gaming handheld with the Acer Nitro Blaze 11, and it comes complete with detachable controllers.

The Nitro Blaze 8 and 11 also differ in design, with the Blaze 11 featuring detachable controllers. The larger Acer option also has a front camera, making it practical for video calls. Weighing 2.3 lbs, only the Nitro Blaze 11 includes a sturdy kickstand. Players will benefit from Hall effect analog sticks and triggers on both models.
