Acer has announced the incredibly thin and light Swift 7 (SF714-52T) with a new premium chassis and ultra-narrow-bezels. The 14-inch Acer Swift 7 has an impressive 92% screen-to-body ratio and weighs at just 890grams. That makes the Swift 7 an amazing on-the-go device for those who travels a lot.

Acer Swift 7

• Intel 8th Gen Core processors (up to Intel Core i7-8500Y)
• 8GB or 16GB LPDDR3 RAM
• 256GB or 512GB PCIe SSD
• 14″ FHD 1080p IPS display with Corning Gorilla Glass 6
• 317.9mm x 191.5 mm x 9.95mm
• 890grams

Acer has certainly bringing a lot to the table with the Swift 7. Packing everything in that sub-1cm, sub-1kg magnesium allow chassis is an engineering feat. Especially when the ultra-narrow-bezel display is equipped with an actual glass, Corning Gorilla Glass 6 at that, and glass is heavy. We can’t wait for the Swift 7 to arrive in Malaysia.
