Acer Swift 3 SF314-51-731X Notebook Review

[Redaktion]

Popular companion. High-quality materials in combination with responsive hardware leaves a good impression. Even though the display luminance does not seem very up to date, we like the overall package of the new Acer Swift 3.

I do not understand how they could ship this laptop with only a 45 Wh battery. This is a 14 inch laptop that is clearly thicker and wider than a macbook 13 yet includes less battery space than the non touchbar version. Maybe they need some help from the apple engineers.

Maybe because it is something like 3 times more expensive ?

"The key travel is good for a notebook and a medium-hard pressure point, so ten-finger typists will enjoy the input."

This comment makes me wonder if you even have any.  Compared to the old Aspire 6920, this keyboard feels like junk.  I'm glad its more debris-proof, but other than that, I like this keyboard slightly less than the 2011 Samsung 10" netbook NF310 ...that is, prior to the coffee spill that killed it.  So, debris-proof for the win, but I doubt this glowing opinion of its key travel and pressure point is shared by most 1980s-vintage 70+ WPM touch typists.

I am not sure why... but I found this review is more biased...  Dell XPS 13 instead....
