Customer Ratings & Reviews

Fast speed, lots of options. The battery life is amazing. The screen quality is great! Highly recommended

This 16 inch laptop has a number of strengths including an excellent, sharp, color accurate, touchscreen 3K display, a fast Intel Core Ultra 256 CPU/Arc 140V GPU chipset and a moderately fast 1 TB drive (a second M2 SSD drive can be added for additional storage). Battery life is excellent. The overall all metal construction is both very light, solid and attractive. The keyboard is very good and back lighting is effective. It supports Wifi 7. It is a CoPilot+ computer with a 47 TOPs NPU (Neural Processing Unit) for AI applications. However, AI software support for the NPU is very limited at the current time. The laptop is limited to a non-upgradable fast LPDDR5X 16 GB of memory. Given the strong internal GPU, 32 GB would be preferable for relatively better gaming and video editing. However, at 16 GB- the laptop should be able to handle most productivity tasks and light video editing and games. Other more minor drawbacks: (1) It is installed with excessive bloatware (which can, except for the Acer specific applications), be easily removed; (2) Mediocre stereo speakers; (3) While not a limitation per see, the touchpad is I believe not haptic. (4) Like similar laptops it is powered by a USB C port, with a USB C power input hub needed to use the port for connecting devices and powering the laptop. If a USB C power hub is used, then a 100-watt compatible power supply is needed to avoid slow charging. It comes with a fabric carrying case.

I was able to get this Acer laptop on-sale, so the price was good. It was my first Acer. The things I like about it: HD OLED display, generous SSD and RAM, more-than-adequate Intel processor, useful Acer apps for monitoring and support. I read complaints by others about the built-in speakers. Mine are adequate for my needs, but I'm not an audiophile who needs HD Dolby stereo to play a YouTube video. Others complained about the numeric keypad being smaller than the normal keys. It is, but I don't find this to be an issue. My main complaint about the keypad is that it doubles as navigation keys (start/end, page up/down) so I find myself pressing NumPad on and off to type and edit. A separate set of navigation keys would be nice. (My Lenovo has this.) My main complaint is that one of the laptop hinges broke within a few weeks of normal home use. No damage or abuse caused this. Poor hinges is a common complaint with Acers. So, I had my first experience with Acer customer support. The process was simple enough. But you MUST mail-in (or hand-deliver) your Acer to an authorized service center. (For me, the closest one is more than a 2.5 hour drive.) And you can expect a couple of weeks before you get it back. (My Lenovo had an at-home repair warranty which was MUCH, MUCH nicer. I would have paid extra for this service on the Acer, but it was not available.) Replacing hinges is not a job for amateurs. Removing the case for the display to free and replace a hinge can easily break the display screen because things are sealed with strong, double-sided tape. So, I didn't attempt it. Bottom line: Nice laptop with the right stuff at a good price (on-sale) but cheap chassis construction. Acer should really invest in a better chassis and hinges.

Bought for my son for college. He loves it and it’s a huge step up from the basic laptops. Screen is top notch and the thinness and weight are perfect.

This laptop feels really premium to use. I love the low power draw and thus less heat. The numpad is unfortunate waste of space as others have noted, but the keyboard is alright for a laptop. Trackpad is nice. The screen is amazing to look at. Really clear and awesome color. Easier to run games play just fine. Even some demanding ones can run sort of ok on lowest settings. General use of the laptop feels quite snappy. Other laptops have felt sluggish to me just launching a web browser or using the OS itself. This one somehow is quick.

Purchased about a month ago. I mainly bought it to edit photos and because of the 3K OLED screen. Colors are amazing. Photos print out beautifully. The touch screen is a +. Keyboard is smooth easy touch. The keys on the number pad aren't a problem as I have small hands. I love how light weightit is and asy to take with. I'm very happy with this laptop it!

Super lightweight and very vivid screen. Love the fingerprint and facial recognition sign-in options.

I quite like it. Came from an Acer VivoBook with the Ryzen 5 to this and it’s much faster. I like the case, it feels sturdy. The touch screen is a little whacky sometimes and jumps around when it’s sitting on my lap.

Best value for money. Excellent display. Lightweight, great performance.

I like really great graphics. I am not a gamer, so cannot speak to that. This laptop does everything I need. I am very particular about graphics and this exceeds my expectations. It is light weight.

I liked everything about this laptop, having been a Geek Squad tech for 20 years before, Acer was one for he cheapest brands and quality before. But this new Swift line up impressed me, the aluminum chassis felt nice but the 16" weighed as light as most 14". The OLED screen was absolutely gorgeous. Ultimately for me this laptop didn't work out since I do a lot of virtualization and need 32gb ram at minimum and this Acer has only 16gb option and not upgradable due to the new Lunar Lake CPU architecture.

I recently started using this laptop and overall, it’s a very good computer that delivers strong performance and a premium experience. The 16″ 3K OLED touchscreen is vibrant and sharp, making it excellent for both work and entertainment with deep contrast and rich colors.handles multitasking, productivity tasks, and daily use with ease. Battery life tends to be solid too, often lasting a full workday on a single charge. The laptop is lightweight and portable for its size, and the keyboard and touchpad are comfortable for extended typing sessions. It also handles multitasking, productivity tasks, and daily use with ease. Battery life tends to be solid too, often lasting a full workday on a single charge. With its strong display, smooth performance, and generous storage, this is a good laptop choice for students, professionals, or anyone wanting reliable daily performance.

Nothing beats this laptop the best of the best with grate customer service were fast helpful and answered all my questions laptop is super light weight and definitely a fast one

Love this computer. Beautiful screen, lightweight, big screen and number pad.

Works great. Fast delivery, beautiful vibrant colors.

The Acer Swift 16 AI is a powerful and sleek laptop with a stunning 3K OLED touch display. Featuring the Intel Core Ultra 7 and 16GB RAM, it delivers fast performance for multitasking and creative work. The 1TB SSD offers ample storage. Lightweight and premium—perfect for productivity and entertainment.

Purchased two of the laptops. Had the contents moved from the old to new devices. The speed increase is very good. The screen color and clarity is incredible.

Movies, games, Youtube, shows...etc is stunning rich in color and deep blacks, after calibration. I did calibrate the HDR video settings to get it looking stunning. I really recommend it. I own a LG C5 65in Oled and this is close too it in picture after calibration. Without calibration the blacks wasnt Oled black more a mini led black and color was not bright and vibrant. Overall I am very please with the laptop and battery life.

Screen looks great. Snappy performance in general. Decent performance in basic games.

Good screen and nice color. Light and easy to carry
