Acer Swift 3, an affordable laptop with Intel Evo certification
The official launch of Windows 11 was announced recently, but prices for compatible laptops are still far from budget-friendly. That’s why tech giant Acer has expanded its range with a new model: the Acer Swift 3. Updated and running the latest Microsoft operating system, the newest version of the Acer Swift comes with a very attractive starting price. And even though the price is already reasonable for a laptop in this category, some retailers are happy to knock a few pounds off for its first appearance on the market. Despite its very accessible price, Acer’s laptop genuinely competes with the most powerful machines of its generation. To top it off, it comes with a protective sleeve to make it easier to carry around.
What is Intel Evo?
Intel Evo is first and foremost a mark of quality for the latest generation of laptops, promising a unique experience for users. If you’ve bought a laptop recently, you’ve probably noticed the Intel® EvoTM badge. Put simply, Intel Evo is a platform developed by Intel Corporation that certifies laptops equipped with Intel processors, ensuring strong performance and compact design according to a new configuration standard. Generally, models aiming for the “Intel Evo” label must be energy-efficient, with average battery life of 9 to 12 hours, highly responsive with an average response time of less than 1 second, equipped with the latest Intel Wi-Fi 6 wireless networking protocol and Ethernet using Thunderbolt 4 technology with transfer speeds of up to 40Go/s, as well as many other premium components. Plenty of reasons to trust Intel Evo certification, and therefore the Acer Swift 3.
Access to Windows 11 made easy with Acer Swift 3
The Acer Swift 3 comes with cutting-edge components. It features an 11th generation i5 processor from the Tider Lake chips. This type of component is designed to meet the various mobile requirements of laptops and is paired with an Intel Iris Xe iGPU to handle graphics tasks. On top of that, you get 8Go of RAM and a high-end 512Go storage drive (SSD NVMe) offering impressive responsiveness when launching and opening applications. Finally, the Windows 11 operating system comes pre-installed on this new Acer Swift, so you don’t have to bother with Microsoft’s update process.
To round off this impressive spec sheet, remember that the Acer Swift 3 packs a whole host of components that put it well ahead of the competition. These include a 14’’ Full HD display delivering high-quality visuals, very comprehensive connectivity fully up to date with the latest standards, an infrared camera using Windows Hello biometric authentication technology to secure your laptop without needing a password, and finally an ultra-advanced reader that can detect your fingerprint.
