Acer Swift 5 and Acer Swift 3: New models of the powerful, portable notebooks

Acer relaunches its powerful and ultraportable Swift series notebooks with the 2022 model series. The new Acer Swift 5 combines powerful hardware with a high-quality WQXGA display in a thin and light case, and the Acer Swift 3 also has additional power under the hood.

Acer Swift 5 and Acer Swift 3: 2022 model generation in detail

The new Acer Swift 5 (model: SF514-56T) is a premium notebook for those who want maximum performance on the go. The notebook relies on a robust CNC-machined unibody case, under whose hood slumbers a 12th generation Intel Core processor with up to 12 cores and Intel Iris Xe graphics.

Thanks to the use of aluminum from aerospace technology, the notebook only weighs 1.2 kg and is only 14.95 mm thin. When it comes to memory, the Swift 5 offers a 16 GB dual-channel LPDDR5 RAM and up to 2 TB of PCIe Gen 4 SSD storage.

Deliberately designed for ease of use, the Swift 5 features Windows Hello enabled by a fingerprint reader on the power button for a more convenient and secure login experience. The notebook has also been verified by Intel Evo and meets key requirements such as waking up instantly from sleep mode and a battery life of ten hours in practice. A 30-minute charge is enough for a battery life of over four hours.

The laptop’s OceanGlass touchpad is made from plastic waste from the ocean and offers a smooth, glass-like tactile feel. It also offers Microsoft Precision Touchpad certification and supports multi-finger gestures.

The Acer Swift 5’s display

The new Acer Swift 5 features a WQXGA touchscreen display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels, as well as extra-thin display edges that allow for a screen-to-body ratio of 92.22 percent. The display, with a 16:10 aspect ratio, offers more vertical space than the traditional 16:9 format, meaning users can capture more of a document or table before having to scroll.

Covering the panel is a layer of antimicrobial Corning Gorilla Glass, which is both durable and coated with ionic silver to protect the surface.

For video calls and the like, there’s an FHD MIPI webcam complete with Acer’s Temporal Noise Reduction (TNR) technology to deliver high-quality video feedback even in low-light conditions, while technologies like Acer PurifiedVoice with AI Noise Reduction ensure that your voice is heard loud and clear. The notebook also features Wi-Fi 6E for enhanced overall connectivity.

In terms of ports, there are two Thunderbolt 4 ports, one HDMI 2.1 port, and two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports. A USB-C port can also be used to provide Spower to other devices, even when the notebook is turned off.
