Multitech

1976–1983

1983–1987

Acer

1987–2001

The company was renamed Acer in 1987. The logo consists of a red and indigo logo with a diamond to the right and the A and R capitalised. Some products have still used this logo for a short time after the introduction of the 2001 Acer logo.

2001–2011

On March 8, 2001, a new logo was introduced, in which the Acer diamond was dropped. It was created by Landor Associates. The new logo came out following the spin-off of Acer's contract manufacturing business to focus on its brand business.

2011–present

The 2001 logo was modified in 2011. The logo uses a different typeface with more rounded corners, and the "e" became more bolder. The new logo also uses a different shade of green, which has been dubbed "Acer Green". Flipping the current logo horizontally transforms the logo from Acer to 1976, the year the company (then known as Multitech International) was founded.
