The editors liked
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 editors didn't like
The tiny keyboard keys don't feel especially premium
And this isn't the fastest slim 13-inch in the bunch. The 1

9.98 mm is quite thin, stylish design with nice colors, relatively light, good battery life, decent system performance, large touchpad, IPS display with stable viewing angles, quite when idle, adapter for USB 3.1 Type C to USB 3.0
only 2 USB 3.1 Type-C ports, very easy to smudge, no backlit keyboard
At 9.98 mm thick, the Acer Swift 7 is the thinnest model of the world. The black-gold color scheme looks nice and the case feels great. The super-flat construction is easy-to-handle. Overall, Acer has produced a good laptop. The workmanship is flawless an...
Lacks an SD Card Reader, Some users will resent, the single port type, Middle-of-road performance
Performance: The Acer Swift 7 performed admirably in our benchmarks, but didn't offer any noteworthy scores outside of battery life due to the low-power nature of the Core M inside the machine. The benchmarks provide a picture of a laptop that will handle...

Well-built laptop with a fine (if not record-breaking) 1080p screen, Decent keyboard and good Precision Touchpad, Two USB-C ports for data, charging, and external displays, Good battery life, Fanless and fast enough for most people, gamers aside
No touchscreen, No keyboard backlight or Caps Lock indicator light, No Thunderbolt 3, No PCI Express/NVMe SSD, Kaby Lake is barely an upgrade over Skylake (though this isn't Acer's fault)
Sturdy build and eye-pleasing design, Ridiculously thin (9.98 mm) and light (1.1 kg), Excellent touchpad, Decent battery life, Excellent IPS panel with negligible drawbacks, The screen doesn't use PWM from 17 to 100% screen brightness
Limited ports, Lacks keyboard backlight and it's a little bit shallow, Ships with M.2 SATA SSD instead of a PCIe NVMe-enabled drive, Doesn't utilize the full performance of the SoC
The Acer Swift 7 is a great piece of equipment or jewelry. It's absurdly thin, light, compact and portable. It will serve you well during the day with good battery life, enough computing for browsing, office work and multimedia. Speaking of which, the scr...
Remarkably thin and light, Shallow but snappy keyboard, Two USB-C ports with USB-A and HDMI adapters included
Merely adequate performance, Keyboard isn't backlit, No memory card slot or Thunderbolt 3
Acer's thinner-than-thin laptop looks great and feels elegant, but is no barn-burner performance-wise for anything more demanding than office apps. Read More...
Abstract: If there's a silver lining to the overall decline of computer sales , it's the booming of the premium ultramobile segment. Based on a forecast from Gartner , sales of these slim but powerful flagship systems could rise by 11% this year and, by 2018, accou...
Quiet at all times, Handles basic tasks with ease, Thin frame is a unique look
Lacks Thunderbolt 3, Ability to handle more intensive tasks is constrained, It's thin. but it's also large
Thin might not be a substitute for portability or performance, but it does turn heads. Acer goes beyond that gimmick, though: The Swift 7 has a premium feel, with a sturdy frame, a decent and enormous trackpad, a pleasant keyboard, and a black-and-gold finish...
Abstract: Thin may be in, but you can get more bang for your buck...

If portability's your bag, it really is hard to beat the Swift 7. This is easily the thinnest and lightest laptop in the 13.3inch category that I've seen to date, and there doesn't seem to be much fat left to trim. The keyboard has just enough give and th
If there's a glaring hole in the Swift 7's design, it's in the realm of connectivity. The Swift features two USBC ports, side by side on the right edge of the laptop. And that's it. One of these ports is designed to be used for charging, but it can be use
