Acer announced updates to its Swift Copilot+ PC lineup, including the Acer Swift Edge 14 AI and Swift Go AI Series. The new thin-and-light laptops are now powered by the latest Intel® Core™ Ultra 200V Series processors and integrated Neural Processing Units (NPUs), enhancing their AI capabilities.

The Acer Swift Edge 14 AI, part of the Swift Copilot+ range, features a lightweight sub-1kg chassis. It includes a 14-inch 3K OLED display with edge-to-edge glass and supports 100% DCI-P3 color gamut. Acer reported that the device is the world’s first laptop to include Corning® Gorilla™ Matte Pro surface treatment. The new surface reportedly reduces reflections by 95% compared to traditional anti-glare glass and improves contrast and sharpness in outdoor conditions.

With up to an Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 processor 288V and integrated Intel® Arc™ GPU, the Swift Edge 14 AI supports demanding AI workloads such as image processing and noise reduction. The device includes features like a fingerprint reader that lights up during recognition and an AI Activity Indicator on the touchpad.

It offers up to 32 GB LPDDR5X memory and up to 1 TB PCIe Gen 4 storage. Acer revealed that the Swift Edge 14 AI can deliver up to 21 hours of battery life. The device includes dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, dual USB Type-A ports, and is MIL-STD 810H certified for durability.

The chassis is made from a high-grade magnesium-aluminum alloy and features a “soft-touch” UV-coated keyboard. It also includes a dedicated Copilot key for launching AI assistance in Windows 11.

Acer also introduced the Swift Go 16 AI and Swift Go 14 AI laptops. These models are powered by up to Intel Core Ultra 7 processors 258V with Intel Arc graphics and up to 32 GB LPDDR5X RAM. They support up to 2 TB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSD storage.

• The Swift Go 16 AI offers a 16-inch WUXGA+ 2K OLED display
• The Swift Go 14 AI features a 14-inch WUXGA OLED display

Both displays are VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 500-certified and Eyesafe 2.0 certified. Acer reported that these laptops provide up to 16 hours of battery life for web browsing.

They come with Acer’s new Multi-Control Touchpad, which allows users to manage media and conferencing features directly on the touchpad. In addition, Acer MyKey enables one-click access to frequently used applications.

All three new Acer Swift AI laptops include 1080p FHD IR webcams supporting Windows Hello facial recognition. The built-in Acer User Sensing technology automatically locks or wakes the device based on user presence. Acer PurifiedVoice™ 2.0 and a triple microphone array are included to reduce background noise during calls.

Connectivity features include support for HDMI 2.1, USB Type-C, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4. The laptops also support DTS: X Ultra audio for improved sound quality.

Acer stated that the Swift AI lineup supports sustainable practices. The devices are EPEAT Gold-registered, use post-consumer recycled plastics, and ship with 100% recycled packaging.
