Acer's website also indicates that the Swift X is available in a variety of colours, although there doesn't seem to be an option to actually choose your preferred colour on its online store (clarity, as we come to discover, is not a defining characteristic of Acer's website).Īcer's 14-inch Swift X is powered by an 8-core AMD Ryzen 7 5700U or 5800U processor with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD.
The 14-inch Swift X feels surprising light as soon it's removed from the box, and while Acer quotes an 'approximate weight' of 1.5kg, our own scales actually put it closer to 1.4kg - the same weight as Apple's 13-inch MacBook Pro.Īcer also quotes a 'screen-to-body' ratio of 85.73%, which translates into an admirably slim 'sliced metal' casing that measures just 17.9mm thick by 322.8mm wide and 212.2mm thick. Design & featuresĪcer's engineers have done a good job at maintaining the slimline design of the Swift range. However, it manages to follow in the lightweight and slimline footsteps of earlier Swift models, while also offering considerably more power for creative users. With its traditional clamshell design, the Swift X is essentially a high-end addition to the company's existing Swift range of ultraportable laptops. Acer's ConceptD range of desktop and laptop PCs offers some attractive - if somewhat eccentric - designs for creative users, but its new Swift X laptop takes a more conventional approach.
