Acer today introduced refreshed models in its popular Swift ultra-portable notebook and Aspire all-in-one desktop ranges, all powered by the latest 10th Gen Intel Core processors and Windows 10.
Designed for performance on-the-go, the Acer Swift 5 and Swift 3 notebooks deliver all that’s necessary in an ultra-portable notebook: a sleek chassis, stylish design and slim bezels with superb performance and battery life. Aimed at students and families, the new Acer Aspire C all-in-one desktop series are slim, space-saving, elegantly styled PCs with impressively thin bezels so users see more of the screen and provides a great computing experience for a range of uses.
“We’re continuously challenging ourselves on how we can make the world’s lightest 14-inch notebook even better,” said James Lin, General Manager, Notebooks, IT Product Business, Acer. “With the new Swift 5, we’ve integrated a discrete graphics chip and the latest processors so mobile professionals no longer have to compromise between portability and performance.”
“10th Gen Intel Core processors redefine what’s possible in a modern laptop by bringing broad-scale AI to the PC for the first time, an all-new graphics architecture for a leap in performance with Iris Plus graphics, and integrated best-in-class connectivity with Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) and Thunderbolt 3,” said Chris Walker, Corporate Vice President and General Manager of Mobility Client Platforms in the Client Computing Group, Intel. “It has been a great collaboration between Intel and Acer to bring the performance and platform capability to life in the new, beautifully designed Swift laptops.”
The 14-inch Acer Swift 5 has been known to be the lightest in its class since its inception, with a chassis made from a perfectly balanced combination of magnesium-lithium and magnesium-aluminum alloys. The latest generation weighs just 990 grams with a new discrete NVIDIA GeForce MX250 graphics option, or even less with solely newly updated integrated Intel Iris Pro graphics while measuring just 14.95 mm thin. The screen features a three-side narrow bezel with a high screen-to-body ratio of 86.4%.
With up to a 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7 processor, and a maximum of 512 GB PCIe Gen 3x4 SSD storage, users get powerful performance and brilliant color quality on the 14-inch Full HD IPS touchscreen. The Swift 5 has a full-function USB3.1 Type-C connector that supports Thunderbolt 3, dual-band Intel Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and supports Windows Hello through a fingerprint reader.
Designed for professionals on the move, the Swift 5 is a lightweight yet powerful laptop with up to 12.5 hours of battery life for day-to-night productivity. The Swift 5 supports fast-charging, providing up to 4.5 hours of use with just a 30-minute charge. Users can login via a touch of the built-in fingerprint reader through Windows Hello for easy and more secure access.
