This respectable company has been making laptops for quite a while and, without the intention of sounding too harsh, they\u2019re all <em>totally sufficient<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>When you think of a premium ultrabook, you think of, say, a <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/dell-vs-hp-laptops\/\">Dell XPS<\/a> or a <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/best-macbook-pro-alternatives\/\">MacBook Air\/Pro<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When you think of a top-notch gaming laptop, Razer\u2019s Blades immediately come to mind \u2014 or, alternatively, an ASUS ROG model.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re after a business or productivity-oriented laptop, companies like HP and Lenovo have you covered with a myriad of different options, most of which are <em>more<\/em> than worth your time and attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So what about Acer?<\/strong> Where does it stand in regards to the pantheon of laptop OEMs and, well, are its laptops even worth considering?<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_Acer_Laptops_Worth_It\"><\/span>Are Acer Laptops Worth It?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>That\u2019s a very tough question to answer but, ultimately, we\u2019d have to lean toward a pretty firm <em>yes<\/em>. <strong>Acer laptops rarely stand out from the crowd \u2014 for one reason or another.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re not the best built, they don\u2019t have the best screens or keyboards or trackpads, and much of the same can be said for the rest of their features as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where they <em>do<\/em> stand out, however, is overall <em>value<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that Acer\u2019s laptops are cheap, but they <em>are<\/em>, at times, a fair bit more affordable than their <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/macbooks-vs-laptops-for-creative-work\/\">direct competitors<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other than the Swift line (which, by the way, is <em>truly<\/em> stellar), there really aren\u2019t many other Acer laptops worth recommending in 2023 \u2014 but more on that down below.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This Taiwanese company actually produces a wide range of products, including desktop PCs, All-in-Ones, Chromebooks, tablets, gaming monitors, projectors, smart devices, and even accessories. <strong>It doesn\u2019t really excel at any one category, though, as harsh as it might sound.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It <em>does<\/em> have a few products that will blow you away with either their looks or their performance (or both), but, overall, Acer\u2019s reputation hasn\u2019t really changed much over the years \u2014 <strong>its products are essentially for the budget-minded.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not necessarily <em>always<\/em> the case as Acer, too, has a couple of incredibly expensive laptops on offer, but the overall sentiment remains.<\/p>\n<p>2023 has seen Acer employ a slightly different \u2014 and much more preferred \u2014 strategy:<strong> they\u2019re streamlining their offerings, imbuing them with better internals and brighter, more color-accurate displays; <\/strong>they are, in doing so, trying to not only distance themselves from the pack but also improve overall brand awareness and public perception.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lot of work ahead of Acer, but this is nonetheless a good first step in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>With all of this in mind, we\u2019ll be focusing on Acer\u2019s 2023 offerings the most.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Acer_Laptop_Portfolio_-_Full_Breakdown\"><\/span>Acer Laptop Portfolio \u2014 Full Breakdown<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Acer's entire product stack is neatly segmented into seven different categories.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve already covered its portfolio in a <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/asus-vs-acer-laptops\/\">previous article<\/a>, so here we'll just focus on the most important bits and, subsequently, dive a bit deeper into the product lines that are <em>truly<\/em> worth exploring and, in turn, worth the investment.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Swift_Swift_Go_Swift_X_Swift_Edge\"><\/span>Swift, Swift Go, Swift X, Swift Edge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_23141\" style=\"width: 1440px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><noscript><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23141\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23141\" src=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops.jpg\" alt=\"Acer Siwft Laptops\" width=\"1440\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops-1024x569.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops-768x427.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\"><\/noscript><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23141\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23141 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201440%20800%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"Acer Siwft Laptops\" width=\"1440\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201440%20800%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops-1024x569.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops-768x427.jpg 768w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/06\/Acer-Siwft-Laptops.jpg\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-23141\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/us-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-x-intel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Acer<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Swift line from Acer is basically its most premium and, by proxy, most noteworthy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/gb-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Swift<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 The Swift 14 is kind of a weird laptop. On the one hand, it has some truly respectable internals (13th Gen H-series processor from Intel), a chassis that's been CNC machined, and is very portable and beautiful to look at. A well-rounded package, if you will. On the other hand, it has just a 60Hz display that isn't even OLED. It's essentially a premium ultrabook for relatively undemanding business users and productivity workers. Nothing more, nothing less. It doesn't come with as many premium features as one would expect given its price tag. <strong>Overall, it\u2019s a hard laptop to recommend.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/gb-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-go\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Swift<\/strong> <strong>Go<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 The Go moniker sort of says it all: these laptops are for general productivity work and content consumption. They come in two different sizes (14&#8243; and 16&#8243;), have beautiful 16:10 OLED displays (up to 120Hz) with full coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut, Intel or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/gb-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-go-14-amd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AMD's<\/a> latest and greatest H\/HS-series processors, and updated cooling modules. This, when paired with a stellar selection of ports and the latest wireless connectivity options, makes the Swift Go incredibly well-rounded.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/gb-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-x-14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Swift X 14<\/strong><\/a><strong> \/ <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/gb-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-x-16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>X 16<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 These particular models, one could argue, are Acer\u2019s most interesting. Two different sizes, both of which come with jaw-dropping OLED displays (120Hz, 2.8K\/3.2K), latest 45W processors from Intel\/<a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/amd-processors-order-performance\/\">AMD<\/a>, an NVIDIA RTX 4050 GPU, and just the right selection of ports. There's really nothing to complain about other than the astonishingly bland design and subpar build quality. That's the one area where Acer cut corners to keep the price down which, frankly, may or may not be a dealbreaker depending on your personal preference. In any case, it\u2019s a stellar option for creative professionals and anyone else who might need ample horsepower.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/gb-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-x-intel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Swift<\/strong> <strong>X<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 This line still hasn't been updated for 2023 but, presumably, will get a refresh sooner rather than later. It comes in two distinct sizes (14&#8243; and 16&#8243;), has a 16:10 display that covers 100% of the sRGB color gamut, alongside some pretty capable internals (Intel 12th Gen P\/H-series processors, ARC A370M or RTX 3050\/3050 Ti graphics). Overall, it\u2019s a nice, well-rounded package that can deliver a very respectable level of performance.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acer.com\/gb-en\/laptops\/swift\/swift-edge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Swift<\/strong> <strong>Edge 16<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 The Swift Edge 16 sports flashy, contemporary looks, a magnesium alloy chassis, a Ryzen 7000 series CPU, a 16&#8243; 4K OLED display, and all the ports one could need: HDMI 2.1, a headphone jack, and a total of four USB ports (two type-A and two type-C).
