As excellent multimedia content and AAA games increasingly captivate audiences the world over, the lust for computing devices with absorbing displays also gets stronger. Acer has a spectacular answer to this quest – the new Acer Swift 7, a 14” laptop that comes with a screen-to-body ratio of 92 percent.
The Swift 7 follows a unique, thin-bezel design and uses lightweight yet reliable magnesium-lithium and magnesium-aluminum alloys for construction. This makes Acer’s most recent launch at CES 2019 not only immersive but also light and thin enough (1.96lbs, 0.39”) to carry without feeling a thing. It is worth mentioning that this micro-arc-oxidation-finish laptop is available in two glorious colors (Starfield Black and Moonstone White) that make it a delight to well, sport.

A Winsome Display
If the borderless design gets expectations soaring, the touch display lives up to all of them. The Swift 7 offers a full High-Definition screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080. It supports In-Plane Switching to allow multiple viewing angles, 300 nits brightness, and 100% sRGB color gamut. The screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 6.
Topnotch Processing, Long Battery Life
Contrary to assumption, the Swift 7 does not compromise on performance to achieve its enviable build. The laptop is energized by an eighth-gen Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB RAM, and 512GB of SSD storage space. This configuration makes it a good fit not only for everyday tasks but also for grueling pursuits like streaming A/V content and multimedia editing.
This computer offers unplugged usage to the tune of 10 hours which keeps the user sorted for most of the workday. All this fits neatly into the sleek, compact and fan-less design—a true engineering wonder that Acer and Intel have achieved together.
Easy Accessibility with Ergonomic Keyboard and Touchpad
When you put the comfortable mobility of this laptop together with its fluid performance, there’s something else that demands a presence: accessibility. Acer prioritizes this with a specially designed keyboard that has a 1.1mm-key-travel-distance and backlighting. The touchpad is responsive enough to gauge multiple touches without lapsing into confusion. The highlight is the fingerprint reader on the power button—talk about ease of navigation meeting high-end security.
Device Support & Connectivity
As is a must with any contemporary computing device, Acer ensures its latest launch is well-connected to the world. There are two USB Type-C ports that support data transfer speeds as high as 40Gbps. There is also a display port to plug in external displays, Intel Wireless-AC, and Bluetooth 5.0. An inbuilt push-to-open HDR camera with a 55-degree angle of view lets you interact with peers, colleagues or family.
Closing Note
The Swift series has, over time, lived up to its name by being rapid, dependable, and nifty. With the newest launch of 2019, Acer has re-imagined the Swift 7 as a true-blue display wonder certain to warm the hearts of all those who seek a superior multimedia experience. Alongside, this machine continues to be high-performing and portable—buzzwords that will dictate the direction of the New Year.
