The editors liked
Designed neatly
Finesse and lightness
Screen very well calibrated
Bright and contrasted
Touchpad wide and precise
Latest Intel processor
Good value for money
The Swift 7 is one of the best-designed Windows laptops of this year
But cuts a few too many corners to offer itself up as the foil to an ultimate rival. That said
We thoroughly enjoyed our time using the Swift 7 with its snappy inputs and excellent fee
One of the thinnest ultrabooks on the market
Beautiful design
Generous trackpad
Excellent build quality
Sleek profile and light weight
Fairly good display
Decent everyday performance and battery life
Despite packing a small battery
Runs cool in most situations and is fanless
This is an insanely thin 13-inch laptop
In an eye-catching gray-and-gold design with an extra-wide touchpad. It has one of Intel's newest CPUs
Great build quality
It's very slim
Firm-feeling build
Good screen contrast
A large trackpad and a lower price than some
Excellent feel
Two USB
C ports
Ultrathin
Stunning design

The editors didn't like
Average autonomy (about 6 hours)
Small keys
No keypad backlighting
Wide screen frame
Disappointing speakers
That said
We wish we could actually use the Swift 7 for longer than around five to six hours
Two hours fewer than Acer's promise. Plus
The lack of keyboard lighting might seem superficial
But it's a nicety we've come to expect on laptops costing more
Poor performance from the Y series i5
No keyboard backlighting
Lack of connectivity options
Only one spec configuration
Only available with a gold interior
Large footprint for a 13incher
Nonbacklit keyboard with poor feedback
The display is glossy
Without being touch capable
Limited IO
The tiny keyboard keys don't feel especially premium
And this isn't the fastest slim 13-inch in the bunch. The 1
One of the thinnest ultrabooks on the market, Beautiful design, Generous trackpad
Poor performance from the Y series i5, No keyboard backlighting, Lack of connectivity options, Only one spec configuration
The Swift 7 is beautiful looking machine with one of thinnest frames on the market, but it's let down by a low performance CPU and too many cut corners. A solid ultrabook for those that want something thin, but otherwise there's very little it offers o...

Beautiful design, Excellent feel, Two USB, C ports
Middling battery life, No keyboard backlight
The Acer Swift 7 is one of the most gorgeous laptops of the year already, but it cuts a few too many corners as a more affordable foil to the 12-inch MacBook...
Whether the Acer Swift 7 is the right laptop for you depends on how much you care about its 10mm thickness. If you don't mind adding a millimetre or five, you can get laptops with more power and better connectivity for the same price. Hardcore users take...

Firm-feeling build, good screen contrast, a large trackpad and a lower price than some
Limited connections, processor prioritises efficiency over performance, no backlight keyboard
The Acer Swift 7 is one of the thinnest laptops in the world, and it costs a bit less than some in this class. Add a good trackpad, a decent screen and a solid-if-shallow keyboard and you have a great ultra-portable machine for work and the sorts of time-...

Average autonomy (about 6 hours), Small keys, No keypad backlighting, Wide screen frame, Disappointing speakers,
By yielding to the fashion of “ultra-ultra-portability”, Acer made in the classical and efficient, but a little bit to stand out from the competition. The Acer Swift 7 is very light and very thin, offers a very good screen, a satisfactory finish and a low...
Of course it goes without saying that despite the very evident borrowing of Cupertino's design language, you're going to be stuck with Windows 10 for your operating system✱. Many of you, I understand, have become inured to it, and some even like it. I'm n...
This is an insanely thin 13-inch laptop, in an eye-catching gray-and-gold design with an extra-wide touchpad. It has one of Intel's newest CPUs
The tiny keyboard keys don't feel especially premium, and this isn't the fastest slim 13-inch in the bunch. The 1,920x1,080-pixel screen doesn't support touch, and the only ports are USB-C
It's hard to argue with a 13-inch laptop under 10mm thick. The Acer Swift 7 wins on that front, but other laptops offer more power and features while adding just a few millimeters of bulk...
Luxurious look and feel, Two USB Type-C ports, Color accurate, high-contrast display, Huge touchpad, Long battery life
Performance lags the competition, No resolution option beyond 1080p, Weak speakers
Yes, if you care about portability.Battery life puts the Swift 7 on the podium. It lasts longer than its peers, often beating them by over an hour. That is no doubt due to the Core i5-7Y54 processor that so badly hurts its performance. It's disappointing...
excellent build quality; sleek profile and light weight; fairly good display; decent everyday performance and battery life, despite packing a small battery; runs cool in most situations and is fanless
only available with a gold interior; large footprint for a 13incher; nonbacklit keyboard with poor feedback; the display is glossy, without being touch capable; limited IO
The Acer Swift 7 is advertised at the thinnest laptop out there at the time of this post (September 2016), and despite that, it's actually very well built and packs solid features. However, I feel that its footprint, keyboard, IO and even screen and batte...
