Every model within Acer’s Swift range of laptops is thin, light and premium but none of them exemplify this as much as the Swift 5, which packs top-of-the-line specs into a body that has to be seen to be believed. With one of Intel’s brand-new 11th gen Core i7 CPUs and 8GB of RAM, it breezes through even the most demanding. This is complemented by the Swift 5’s ingenious cooling system, with dual heat-pipes and a special shortcut to allow you to choose between 3 fan modes – silent, normal and performance. The Swift 5 is also fitted with a huge 512GB SSD, which gives you plenty of space for all your doents, media and files without compromising on performance. The 14” display is a full touchscreen, offering more flexibility in how you can control it. The Full HD IPS panel also offers great detail, as well as vivid colours and wide viewing-angles. Additionally, the Swift 5 features Acer’s BlueLightShield technology which helps reduce eye strain and fatigue, particularly when using it for an extended period of time. The body of the Swift 5 is where it really stands out from the compeion. At 1kg, it’s one of the lightest 14” laptops in the world, while at less than 15mm thick, it’s also one of the thinnest. All of which means that it’s the obvious choice for anyone who needs to work on-the-go. Plus, with a remarkable battery life of up-to 15 hours from a single charge, no matter how busy your day or how far you have to travel, you won’t inconvenienced by having to find somewhere to charge. The Swift 5 also comes with a full complement of connectivity options, for added convenience. With the very latest dual-band Wi-Fi 6, you get speeds up-to 3 times faster than the previous generation of wi-fi. The Swift 5 doesn’t want for physical connections either, with a USB-C port with Thunderbolt 4 support, which offers speeds 4 times faster than conventional USB as well as the option to connect a pair of 4K monitors using the single cable.
