The Acer Swift 7 laptop shown to the public as part of the CES 2018 exhibition is not a completely new device. More precisely, it is a significant update to the already existing ultrabook of the same name, which owns the laurels of the thinnest laptop in the world.
Innovations
Innovations in the updated version of the laptop touched on many aspects. The thickness of its case was cut by another millimetre (up to 8.98 mm), the screen size grew from 13.3 to 14" (due to the reduction of gigantic frames), and the display itself learned to recognize touch input. But that's not all — the model has an integrated 4G modem with support for eSIM technology. If for some reason you can’t use it, the ultrabook has a slot for a regular nanoSIM on board.
In his element
As before, the hardware platform of the device is based on not the most performant seventh generation Intel Core i7 processors (in particular, Intel Core i7-7Y75). However, an ultra-compact device does not require a high power reserve. The element of the ultrabook is working with tabs in the browser, in text editors and watching videos on YouTube. It is not worth loading the model with more serious tasks. In all cases, the work of the laptop is accompanied by complete noiselessness.
Handling comfort
The Taiwanese manufacturer managed to fit into the model an island-type keyboard with a well-defined button stroke. Also, the wide touchpad is no less convenient to use. Adherents of the classics (mouse control) should preferably get a wireless manipulator or buy an adapter from USB Type-C (a pair of such connectors are used in the laptop) to USB Type-A. The ports on the right side of the laptop serve both for connecting peripherals and for charging the battery, which can provide the device with up to 10 hours of battery life. Models would have an even more democratic price and for a comfortable solution of everyday tasks on the go, it would not be better to find an option.
