Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve been using the Swift 16 for a while now, and the 3K OLED display is easily the highlight. The colors look vivid and the blacks are truly deep, which makes movies and photo editing feel like a big upgrade from my previous laptop. Even though it’s a 16-inch machine, it still feels surprisingly easy to carry in a backpack. The Ice Black finish looks sleek and premium, but it does pick up fingerprints quickly—so a microfiber cloth is definitely worth keeping nearby. On the performance side, the Intel Core Ultra 7 has been smooth and responsive for my day-to-day use. I’ll often have around 20 Chrome tabs open with Spotify and Excel running, and the 16GB of RAM keeps everything moving without slowdowns. The new AI additions are a nice bonus too, and the dedicated Copilot key is more convenient than expected for quick lookups. If you want a premium-feeling laptop with a standout display that doesn’t feel like a brick to carry, this is a strong option. Pros: • Gorgeous OLED touchscreen. • Quick boot and app loads thanks to the 1TB SSD. • Snappy, comfortable keyboard. Cons: • The lid is a fingerprint magnet.

Great laptop. Current generation i7 evo processor with a really top speb screen. Colors are good, high resolution and very bright. I put linux on mine and once you update the kernel to support the new hardware it works really well with no issues noted so far. Battery lasts for 6-7 hours with sustained use and very light for its size. I've been using it as my daily driver for a few weeks and couldn't be happier with it.

Amazingly fast. Great on my 74 year old eyes. It is very liite and I carry it with me all the time. I would recommend the Acer brand to anyone.

In all honesty, I absolutely love this computer. This is the first computer I've ever brought for myself. I've owned my computer for a month now, previously I had this exact computer which was a gift from my dad when I was heading for college. My previous computer, which is the same as the one I currently have, ran very good, it was fast, never gave me issues, and allowed me to play video games without issue. Now with my new computer, it runs just like my previous computer, fast, no issues, and like my previous computer, I can play games without issues. I love my computer and I'd very much recommend this computer for anyone who's looking for a new computer.

Fast and light. Colors are great and it multitasks like I expected. I like the black case better than all the silvers, but that's just preference. Wanted to give it 5, but one thing stood out. The description on the site states that it is in fact an EVO edition, even the badge on the display at the store stated as such. There is no badge or mention of EVO on the box or the laptop itself. Even reached out to ACER and their response is that this is not an EVO edition laptop. One, if not the major reason I bought it. So slightly annoyed, but so far not enough to return it. Look carefully when you open the box.

The Acer Swift 16 AI is a great option for those looking for a portable and powerful laptop with a stunning OLED display. While it has some drawbacks, its pros make it a solid choice for productivity and entertainment. If you're willing to compromise on audio quality and graphics performance, this laptop might be perfect for you.

Beautiful laptop. Sleek build. Made well, does not get hot. Backlit keys are vibrant. Touchpad works well. The screen is beautiful. I use it for work, school, and to watch movies. The speakers arent great but I dont know of many laptops that support a great speaker without getting too heavy. Get it!

I’ve been really impressed with this laptop so far. The battery life is excellent and easily lasts me through the day. The 16" 3K OLED screen is absolutely beautiful—colors are vibrant, blacks are deep, and everything looks sharp. The touch screen is a nice bonus and actually comes in handy more than I expected. The touchpad is a good size and feels smooth and responsive, and I appreciate having a numpad. My only small complaint is that I wish the arrow keys were a bit bigger, but it’s not a dealbreaker. I also love the sleek black matte design—it looks premium and feels solid. Overall, this laptop has every spec I was looking for, and it’s been well worth the price. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a powerful, modern laptop with an amazing display. If you want, I can make a **shorter version**, a **more casual version**, or tweak it to sound more tech-savvy.

Fully satisfied with the performance. Long battery life. Crisp resolution. Good audio output. Good buy at the prevailing price I got at 650usf

I had never considered an Acer product. But when I went into the person that assisted me gave me a plethora of information about the different laptops and when it came down to price and options, this laptop came out on top. I’m so happy I made this choice. This laptop is powerful, super easy to use, sleek and lightweight. It even has a mechanism that slightly lifts the bottom when you open the laptop so it gets more airflow. I highly recommend this Acer.

This laptop has been great in every way. Didn’t need anything to crazy because that what my custom desktop is for. Screen looks amazing everything is responsive and fast . I haven’t had any hiccups with this at all. Battery life is also really good.

This laptop is really thin, the design, and the display is awesome. I completely loved how the battery lasts for ever. I would highly recommend it for students or programmers.

I’m bought this to run a video and audio editing software. It held up to it power without slowing down. And when I plugged in my second screen it put out the same 120 refresh rate. The quality of this laptop has it power and hold up to the name

Nice laptop. Its fast and powers up instantly. PLEASE - If you buy this the screen doesn't enable the HDR quality by default and will make your screen an 8-bit 60z display unless you right click on your desktop, select display and then enable HDR. Go to advanced settings in that same menu, and make sure your refresh rate shows 120hz. Hope this helps.

Its a great laptop that does everything we want it to. Fair price and runs great!

This computer is quick and has really really nice colors in the screen.

I really love all the features in this laptop and especially love the IA, it is super helpful and scary human like with its speach patterns ez to use and comes with its own button for the AI and a program that you can go to so you can check if evois running smoothly. Not one problem and makes life ez

Perfect fit for my meefs. Love the screen size and clarity.

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 looking for a multi-purpose laptop that could run office tools as well as 3d printer design software when I picked up the Acer Swift 16" 3K OLED.  After a week of use, I find that it is a quality touchscreen laptop both in its visual appeal and multi-tasking ability, but it does come with a few quirks regarding the layout and features.   In the box is the laptop, power cable, and soft case. The setup is the standard Windows workflow.  As far as the build, this laptop is light at less than 4 lbs and boasts a HDMI port, 2 x USB-A 3.2 ports, 2 x USB-C 4 (Thunderbolt) ports, and a headphone jack. One of the things I love about this laptop is that it is a 16" laptop that has a nice, easy to view, bright screen at 340 nits brightness, with minimal border and vibrant colors to include true black that comes with an OLED. The screen is considered 3K resolution, which gives sharper more defined images due to having the increased pixel count. In addition to the resolution, and good news for the casual gamer, is the 0.2ms response time. On the flip side, I do wish there was a better graphics card than the Intel Arc to match the quality of this display. As for viewing, the screen is glossy, which you can view from nearly any angle, and it has about the same reflectiveness as a cell phone screen. While not significant, I did find that I had to position the screen to certain angles when working in areas with bright overhead lighting.  The keyboard layout is as expected, keys respond well, and have enough travel and weight to be accurate for both typing and gaming. However one of the quirks to this layout is that Acer tried to squeeze a keypad into a space that really doesn't fit. The number keys are narrower than a full keypad, and are so compact that it's hard to use them if you're used to a full sized number pad.  I'd much rather see that real estate used for better purposes such as speakers, new features, or even optimized keyboard layout. The last thing to note about the build, is that the screen will lay flat, the hinges pivot the base up and away from the desk, so it allows for some air flow, even when fully extended. I do wish the hinges were slightly beefier since the design puts some  downward force on them when the screen is at a 90 degree angle. Overall the build is solid, the screen is fantastic, and keyboard design is ok.  As far as features go, the front facing 1440p QHD camera is nice, it offers detailed resolution and does not wash out in well lit areas. It is one of the best quality cameras I've seen on this level of laptop build. A feature that may eventually stand out is that the Acer Swift is all about AI, both productivity tools and speed of these tools, and is powered by the Intel Core Ultra 7 series 2 processor. In addition to the CoPilot+ tools, Acer has loaded its AI supported PurifiedView and PurifiedVoice tools that allow lighting adjustments, blurring, and noise filtering during video conferencing. Note that many of the AI tools are expected to be released in later builds, so this is just a small glimpse into what is planned to come. The Intel NPU used to support this AI performs up to 47 TOPS (trillions of operations / second). If you're new to AI focused chips, NPUs are typically less powerful than GPUs, but they also consume much less power which means you can run in a slim laptop build without having to beef up the build or fan capacity. In addition to the processor, the laptop comes with 16 GB RAM,  1 TB storage capacity, and the somewhat lackluster Intel ARC graphics card that does support DirectX12.2 with ray tracing.  A few other things to note, this laptop comes with wifi 7 to include multi-link capability. I have this laptop paired with a wifi 6 router and there is zero speed degradation. As I mentioned this isn't something I picked up for gaming, but it isn't terrible for lag or tearing, and can keep up with the majority of the games I cycled through from Steam. While not surprising, this is not a laptop you'll buy for the speaker quality.  The built in speakers are flat, tinny sounding, and not positioned towards you regardless of angle. Do yourself a favor and run an external speaker or a headset for video conferencing or streaming. Lastly, the mousepad has an AI illumination that will light up when AI functions are in use. Not exactly a useful tool, but something that is different and will give you a clear indicator when AI processes are occurring and potential bandwidth implications if you're using other software.  Bottom line, this build is unique, it's got some great horsepower for multi-tasking, and alludes to some neat AI features that are yet to be released. My top issues are the underwhelming graphics card, the bizarre skinny keypad, and the speakers. My top favorite features are the processor's ability to multitask, rendering speeds are quick during modeling, and I absolutely love the crisp bold images the display produces. I think this ranks as a very solid multi-purpose laptop, it can game, work, and create with ease.
