It features a premium aerospace grade aluminum chassis that has a maximum thickness of 14.95mm and weighs just 1.2 kilograms. Under the hood, it features 12th Gen Intel Core processors as well but its display is one of its major highlighting features.

Furthermore, it features an FHD camera, AI Noise Reduction on its dual stereo speakers, WiFi 6E, and a Thunderbolt 4.

This is paired with up to 16GB of RAM and dual SSD slots that support up to 2TB of storage.

The latest versions of the Acer Swift 5 and Swift 3 laptops have been unveiled and they come with some impressive features. Acer’s latest laptops will use Intel’s 12th-gen ultraportable processors together with a handful of upgrades above the previous models.

The new Acer Swift 5 has a 16:10 display that will help to view vertical content more comfortably unlike the 16:9 configuration which suffers from the chin problem. In addition, the two-tone aluminum shell of the new Swift 5 reflects an exquisite design. With 16GB of RAM and 2TB of SSD storage, the Swift 5 comes well kitted for high performance and multiple applications without the laptop being unnecessarily slowed down. The battery offers up to 10 hours of activity on a full charge, with fast charging support also available. The collection of ports available for the device offers lots of options in connectivity. The Acer Swift 3 still sports a 16:9 display and 2TB of SSD storage. A similar width in connectivity options is also available with the new Swift 3 laptop. It also comes in several color options.

The two Acer’s latest laptops will begin shipping from June 2022 with a starting price of $850 for the Swift 3 and $1,499 for the Swift 5. It remains to be seen, however, how the increased price of the Swift 5 will sit in the market since its predecessor was sold back in 2020 for $1,000. Maybe the company has its target upscale audience well figured out.
