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

Its what youd expect. Solid performance from the new, updated CPU/GPUs. I was looking for a more minimal looking laptop with these specs at this price point, and this sort of fit. The chassis is a little outdated in terms of its design and the trackpad feels a little clunky, but overall a solid laptop.

Worked fine for a day or two, and then it wouldnt connect to Wifi or even be able to search for Wifi. I spent an hour working with Acer technical support only to determine that it was a hardware problem and that I would need to send it in for repairs. This was a repeated problem with Acer, I had to send my previous one in because it would overheat even from just watching Youtube videos, and sadly doesnt seem like something they have or will improve upon. This laptop seemed like it was going to be great, but having a problem large enough to render it unusable and warrant sending it in for repairs right off the bat was a terrible sign. I refunded my purchase and havent looked back. You can do much better, especially for the $1,000+ youll be putting down on this machine.

I bought this laptop for 2 reasons, 1) it has a rtx GPU which no one offers at this price. 2) an excellent color accurate screen.

After about 2 months of use, here is my feedback: Good overall except the following :

Laptop arrived with issues. Frequently reboots itself and goes into recovery mode. A clean reinstall of Windows did not fix the problem. Memory tests fine as does the SSD. There is an error when I try to return it for replacement which I assume is stock related. I will be returning this for a refund and getting something else.

Its my first time to have a NVIDIA processor and graphics unit, and I have to say its been great so far! I needed this laptop for school, and I wanted to get one that has a good GPU. Mostly laptops with good GPUs are made for gaming, which comes at a cost when considering its battery life. The Acer Swift X is a laptop that has the balance between a good gaming laptop with a very good performance and a good battery life. In this laptop you will find both. Also, being a 14 laptop, it doesnt feel small as in the 13 laptops and its not huge either. It is super portable. In a nutshell, this one is hard to beat on this price unit.

This notebook was everything I expected from the other reviews, fast, comfortable, compact and metallic with some details.

EDIT: disabling processor power boost (aka turbo boost) solved temperature issues with the laptop and also decreased fan noise by 99%

I wanted a windows machine with discrete graphics and a quality display for photo and video work but I didnt want some 15.6-17 behemoth, nor could I really afford a Razer or some other $2000 ultra portable. After exhaustive research and comparisons over a couple of months I decided the swift x was exactly at the price/performance intersection for me. Its a little thicker and heavier than I prefer for travel but given the massive performance it has over my old Yoga laptop I consider it a reasonable trade. The 16:10 display is not my preferred aspect ratio for lightroom and photoshop but I use a calibrated 4k external monitor for serious work sessions. The built in display has great gamut and color space specs and sharp details for a 1080 panel. Battery life is excellent if youre not flogging it. The fan ran an obnoxious amount out of the box, even at idle but a quick Google showed it was a known issue and a quick settings change quieted things right down. I havent done much video work on it yet but I have some upcoming projects that will put the GPU to the test. It rips through lightroom and photoshop tasks with ease. It nips at the heels of my friends top of the line Razer at a fraction of the price, and thats an Intel machine. If we got into multicore video work I would probably edge him out.

La recibí hace una semana es una bestia, el rendimiento es impresionante un poco más pequeña de lo que esperaba, el teclado no es el más comodo las teclas son un poco pequeñas pero es algo de costumbre.
