Acer Swift X SFX14-41G-R1S6 Creator Laptop | 14 Full HD 100% sRGB | AMD Ryzen 7 5800U | NVIDIA RTX 3050Ti GPU | 16GB LPDDR4X | 512GB SSD | Wi-Fi 6 | Backlit KB | Amazon Alexa | Windows 10 Home

I bought a pc because I needed to run windows for my engineering classes. Im not knowledgeable about windows at all, but this computer has amazing performance all packed in for a great price. I wish that the display was 4k, and that the body was a little more premium, but for the price you cannot beat the top-of the line specs!

I went for this laptop because I didnt want to have to move to Windows 11. The listing needs to be updated as this machine does not have Windows 10 Home as advertised.

This laptop just stopped working in less than a year for no reason. Acre doesn’t care to take responsibility. If you want a longer lasting laptop stay away from this Acer Swift X.

Laptop is really looking elegant and its lightweight. Its perfect for both office type of work to high demanding apps like adobe. I also played on it several modern games and they worked like charm! However this laptop has been purchased only for work stuff so its really doing the job great!

This review is for the first 3 weeks. There are other reviews that do a great job at spelling out the hardware details.

I bought this bad boy directly from Acer refurbished, so thats why this review isnt verified as purchased. I just want to clear up a misconception people seem to be having here.

Crossing point of CPU & GPU power, battery time, weight & dimension.

This is billed as a powerful, lightweight laptop for creatives. It is all that except the fan gets so loud and runs so long just for minor tasks at 15% CPU load before the GPU EVEN KICKS IN I cant imagine working with it for video and audio editing. Seriously, its as loud as a heatgun, and it has a shrill whine along with the woosh. I suppose if you use closed headphones it would be usable. Im very disappointed, I waited a long time for this to come out, and it sure is pretty and light with a beautiful screen.

I just recieved and opened my laptop today and it was just like your standard windows laptop. I got it for college this fall and it looked like it had good parts for the price, so I went and bought it. Like most Windows laptops, it came with a TON of annoying preinstalled programs and services. After spending 30 minutes setting everything up and basically just personalizing it, downloading programs I normally use, etc. the laptop was ready for daily use. The battery life seems pretty decent, it said I had 4 hours left at 80% battery, but theres an option to either maximize battery life or maximize performance (through a slider bar) and Id imagine I could likely get at least 8 hours out of this on max battery mode.
