What do you guys think of the Acer Swift X 14 is it worth the price? Also, if you enjoyed the video feel free to hit the like button and subscribe.
I think not, Matt. Presonally, the 2021 Swift X was better. Suprised whn you opened it up and found just one slot for drives.
No. 1400$ for this. I would rether save up to 1800 for zenbook pro 14 oled ux6404 , 4060 i9, build quality,keyboard,.. Everything is better. Could u review that zenbook.
Nope. Asus VivoBook Pro 14 has the same 120Hz OLED + 4050 under $1K, and has way better build quality and keyboard compared to Acer.
This is a rip-off.
Their previous swift X 14 used to have a good value, with a discrete GPU in a tiny form factor. They had to sacrifice noise and thermals. Sadly, it seems these weren't addressed.
Other manufacturers are entering this space, so they need to stay competitive. There's a couple of design tricks they could use to improve thermals as well. With such a large fan chassis, it could be used as a heatsink. Huawei did that. Mushy keyboards are also a big turn off.
Really hoping the 7040 Ultrabooks come out soon, they could be a good alternative.
I can't say yes to this NOcean glass touchpad . 😊
"you can do a little gaming" ..and there is me with a 1050 ti running cyberpunk at 40 fps full hd. That's what graphical options are made for.
That's great. I'm fine with 30fps
Ohh I know, these douchebags are just hype selling. The fact I can game perfectly fine on any 10/20 series laptops is a joke when it comes to gains. It's really sad and not to mention the devaluation of dedicated gpu laptops is ridiculous. You can find better affordable options on the 2nd hand markets.
This laptop can't handle the 4050 with a sjngle fan, you're (and me too) fine with a 1050ti
@@palashverma4235 Thank god fsr exists
@@m4rkjordanmeanwhile me w/ only an iGPU running RE 4 remake w/ ultra performance performance at 720p..."yeah this is fine"... But I agree thanks god amd for creating FSR
I love simple designs, no rgb, just powerful hardware
Not really a fan of rgb, yet it's very prominent to all gaming laptops in general... I only see the random color strobing as a distraction... But sure it does "increase" fps 10x
only loved rgb because i can set the color to my favourite color or wallpaper
Powerful Hardware let down by the cooling system
2023 version looks so distinct compared to 2022 and 2021. It doesn't look as simple and clean as its predecessor from my perspective. I do like that 7-hour battery life tho. That's actually impressive given that the fan is always audible even at low load. I got the 2021 version, the fan is dead silent at low load but battery life lasts for about 6-hour.
I have that 21 model as well (ryzen 5800u), I really want to upgrade because the screen on it is terrible. 60hz and terrible response time is such a bummer. This seems like a huge upgrade plus 16:10 aspect ratio for productivity.
Thanks for the keyboard feedback and on how far back the display can go, but on the display part you mentioned that the Gigabyte Aero 14 is 60Hz only but it's not, it's actually 14.0" 90Hz 2.8K non-touch OLED. This Swift X 14 is 14.5" 120Hz 2.8K non-touch OLED, which is good to emphasize that way for those that want a touchscreen (don't think it was mentioned here) and are also looking for a compromise between 14.0" and 15.6". Cheers.
Matt's comments on sticker placement has become as legendary, if not more, than Linus drop act.
A few weeks ago I bought the 2022 version of the acer swift x 14 with the I7-1260p, the 3050ti, 16gb of ram, and 1440p LCD display, on discount for about 1200 brand new. I wanted a productive Laptop that had dedicated graphics so I could game and do everything I needed to do on a desktop with relative ease in a thin and light chassis, overall I'm pretty happy with it, a few complaints but most are minor such as a lack of an SD card reader, Windows 11 bugs, and a bit of backlight bleed when the brightness is over half, but for what it is it was very much worth it. I would have appreciated even a 90hz display or an upgrade to an OLED at the price, but its better than 1080p, having said all this I've noticed a few things with the swift line, when a newer model is released its seems to be "2 steps forward, 1 step back", for this one that I have, it got the display upgrade in terms of aspect ration and resolution, and it now charges over USB-C, but then it doesn't have an option to spec with a Ryzen chip, and this one has a better Intel chip and a higher spec 4050 GPU but now the IO layout is worse, the display is better, but now it only has 1 SSD slot instead of 2 like on my model and the original Swift X. I'm not sure why Acer seems to come so close but then end up coming just short of the perfect mid range laptop, needless to say while I would like the OLED display and newer chipset, the IO placement and the singular SSD slot are pretty big deal-breakers.
Thanks for mentioning the fans - I was looking into this laptop as a mobile solution for remote audio-recoding and mixing. This rules it out. Greetings from Sonic Peak Studio
Webcam and mic look and sound good. I'd be very happy to zoom with them.
Wouldve been great if they added another SSD Slot, although it does come with 1TB out of the box unlike my 2021 version that had 512. Good to see they used that space for a battery though.
i think they messed it up by going with intel. I have the 2021 version with the Ryzen 5 5600U and it works like a charm. It is super silent untill I start a game or something. The performance is within 20% of this laptop even though its 2 years old (and the lower R5 variant). And the most imp point is that it cost just USD999. The only thing this laptop has gained is the display imo (and the black colour, mine only had 1 option- silver).
I think the single fan instead of two is even more problematic.
Sure they have powerful hardware, but they can't cool it properly and are obnoxiously loud for below average performance.
But AMD would have helped, too. I agree on that.
It's cheap, but you also get what you pay for.
@@sebastianjost No the thing is that Acer have chosen to not have loud fans on the AMD 2021 variant. It doesnt run very fast and get very loud even on turbo mode. But this results in hotter temps. I personally would rather take higher fan noice than high temps but it is what it is.
Definitely, 2 fans on this device would've made a world's difference.
Noisy fans are the deal breaker for me. Appreciate the efforts and excellent review as always. 🎉🎉
I don't see the need for going above 1080p on a 14inch display. Unless your really pixel peeping. You could play games at highe settings with good fps just by keeping it at 1080p.
i like how you mention about pwm flicker, it's so rare when it come to reviewer on youtube.
Cooling should be better. Even me on my Acer Swift 3 that has an U series CPU combined with a low-power MX150 GPU, cooling suffers when I do something demanding because there's only one fan.
$1,400 for a 50 class gpu, there's a huge price creep up in the laptop market
Lol I feel like AMD used to be a great budget alternative and then they caught up with Intel and now team red and blue are both crazy expensive…wasn’t competition supposed to be good for consumers?…
that 50 class gpu mauls an rtx 2070 max q laptop from a couple years ago, which used to cost $2000+
@@frankolamar surprise, new tech is better than old tech from 2 generations ago
dude, it has oled, thunderbolt, and all that jazz. there are laptops with 4050 (50 class gpu) that has ips/va screen with 66% rgb, only usb 3.1 gen 1 for less than US$1000.
Very interesting for people looking for portability, power and a beautiful screen! Give it a 4060, cut less corners, and it'll be a nice g14 competitor
Asus already makes that too. Asus zenbook pro 14 oled. Same 2.8k 120hz oled display and upto an rtx 4070. Also has much better cooling and TDP. They just need to announce that price tag now
Would it be weird if they release another one with “dual fan” as an advertisement? 😂
i just bought last years acer swift x on offer for $1099+tax=$1194.... 3050ti + i7 1260p + 2.8k display...
the new one that $1399 comes with tax too.. it would cost $1500+.. can't afford..
I love your dissection of the sticker placement.
Thank you for your objective comments related to coolong sistem and fan noise. It helps us to see the reality and to make corret choise.
Laptop looked like a great deal, until I saw the cooling solution. Not worth the savings really if you're losing a lot of performance, I'd rather go for the Gigabyte then for extra $300
i always hate 14 inch laptop with dedicated gpu but the manufacture only give one fan to the laptop. sometimes i can forgive it if it sell at cheap price like this one but come on..... i know you can do better (i still remember Swift 3 2022 using P series processor and have dual fan cooling system). Don't just give dual fan cooling system for high end slim laptop.
Still don't understand all the nagging about stickers in every video, laptops always had them what's the issue?
Can you plz make a video on the best bang for the buck laptops especially including the best from acer and comparing them and telling their strengths and weaknesses, and telling which one is the best overall as well. Thank you!
Oh man, i can't wait for what Asus is gonna do with their Vivobook Pro lineup
Do you think buying razer blade advanced 2020 2080s for 1000💲
is good at the moment?
It's used, but in pristine condition
The fact that in 2023 we still have laptops which are still all the time loud and the fan is constantly running even at idle or web-browsing it make a completely NO choice for me
Is the difference in performance of same specced laptops because of the lack of good cooling?
Exactly
I wonder if someone will make a laptop with a matte OLED display. Love the colors and black level of OLED, but can't stand the reflections of glossy screens
i think they do it to exaggerate the 'deep blacks'.. even ips planels can achieve a similar appearance by using a glossy coat
@@jub8891 Yeah it's to add contrast. But that extra contrast doesn't really help much if half my screen is just a reflection of my own face. Especially on a laptop that is meant to be used in a variety of locations, you can't always control the lighting or background.
Yay! Been waiting for this laptop!
Edit: The thermals are disappointing. Perhaps the Zenbook 14x OLED is a good alternative?
Ok, so there's a review of the laptop out. It also uses one fan, but it has two exhausts at 12 and 3 o'clock positions, which makes a lot of sense. It saves space and allows the same fan to blow through more heatsinks.
i was almost dead set on getting a zenbook pro 14 oled this week but then this acer laptop popped up at a much lower price. now im torn
I'm just disappointed that they didn't include an extra storage slot. The 2021 version with 1 extra slot comes pretty handy for me
@@asherbenjamin7925hello what laptop did u end up getting
@@skuzz5357 went with the zenbook pro 14. I believe it has much better cooling which is crucial for RTX gpus. Plus, it looks way better 😅 more expensive tho but fuck it lol
Lol. Nice purchase man! Still undecided here. Will check out the Asus ZenBook Pro 14 then.
For me, this is best of the best. Soundgarden on too. It's grate.
Hey! If you're seeing this, I just now got my Acer Swift X 14 with the i5 13500H and RTX 4050. However, the battery life does not seem too great. What can I do to fix this?
That cooling solution can only handle a P series chip at best. i7 13700 is a total waste in that chasis. I don't think Acer is gonna make money from that model
I agree the cooling system for this underwhelming /=
Nice touch adding dunkey's video on totk while talking about the display
he's hilarious lol
@@MatthewMoniz his videos are amazing! And so are yours!! Thank you very much for your awesome content, I'm actually about to move to Canada in a few months and have been looking into almost all your recent videos trying to find the best laptop that will fit my budget 🥰 this one looks promising
That acer glass marketing really cracked me up! You are actually getting plastic instead of glass 😂😂
0:38 “still very rigid” Are you kidding me? That flex is disgusting 🤮
It's amazing how there's so much power just in this small size factor.
Very decent laptop for those that want a something portable that has a bit of power behind it at an affordable price. I would still go with ASUS though.
Which asus non-gaming laptops is good for light gaming
@@hamzron7056 Zenbook 14X technically can do light gaming with the MX550, the 2023 version comes with an RTX 3050. Zenbook 14 Pro can do AAA games with the RTX 4070.
@@hamzron7056 There's the Zenbook 14x with a 3050 coming out (CES 2023 announcement). The vivobook pro 14 has a 3050 (can't find info on a 4050 version), and there's the vivobook pro 16 with a 4050.
@@MyronZhaothanks!
@@yensteelthanks!
I have an option to get 7840H in it. Is 16GB RAM too small?
if you use a more powerful brick adapter will the performance go up
I am confused. If, noise aside, the temps don't get too high, why does it perform so much worse than similar laptops? Do they have it lower the speed of the CPU/GPU to keep the temps lower?
Everything was looking good till the lower performance and soldered RAM. Why? WHY? WHYYYY are they so....
Thanks for the video.
They have to drop the cpu speeds considerably more than the other laptops that are better cooled that’s why the performance is lower. Having one fan is not a good idea
@@MatthewMoniz yeah, poor solution. Thank you.
I wish they went with Ryzen U-series CPU like on previous gen and not the furnace 13700H. It's great laptop but the thermals are garbage, I prefer peace and quiet when I'm not gaming on a laptop.
The B&H link says not available til august.
A great review 🔥
Thanks!
Is 16gb ram dual channel or single channel?
Could you please do a review on Alienware m16?

This is Actually My Dream Overall Laptop, This is the laptop I would happily buy the moment I can afford it.
Predator X14 mini led 4070 waiting room
I wanted to buy this but then i changed my mind because of the design fail at cooling
make it vs the newest blade 14 plsss 😭😭
Switf line up had always been great value for money this sets the bar even higher id love it personally.
SKUs like these upset me. For the love of god, stop adding H series processors to these types of laptops! Isn't the P series supposed to be "made" for this type of model? The single fan adds insult to injury - to the point where I think it's done on purpose to create recalls, which they can eventually resell through their ebay store or Acer Refurbished (or whatever it's called)
Anybody with a bit of IT knowledge can easily turn a H processor into a P/U variant. Its just unlocking a windows registry key and gaining acces to the turbo boost and power management profile. You can much easily to reduce the power demands of a higher CPU, but there is a limit in making a lower cpu go higher. What your buying with a P or U class CPU, is nothing but the same CPU with a lower set power profile by default. And no, there is very little binning going on unlike what people tell you.
Cant wait for the acer predator triton x17
Does this support g-sync?
No it doesn't
I've used Acer products in the past (laptop, monitors) and have found they're decent alternatives for folks on a budget. It's important to have realistic expectations though.
The design looks neat but one fan iad solded ram s a totally break dealer
Not available in india :(
Meanwhile watching this from Acer Swift 3 (2019)...
It's time for your upgrade
I stopped the video when he showed the IOs and no air vents on the sides. Big No!
yay, hope your memory doesnt go bad in the life of the laptop.
"Anything with the legend name in it"
Great reviews....
Thank you!
soldered ram is a big no no for me.
the cooling must suck
Can forza horizon 5 run on this laptop ?
Even when it’s not a high performance laptop the cooling system seems to be a problem. Maybe an amd processor would have been a better option.
We need AMD cpu in 14 inc not in 16 inc only
Hope they bring more choices
The Asus ZenBook 14 OLED is a little over half the list price of this laptop. Almost double for slightly better GPU and slightly better CPU? This laptop is DOA at this price
And that is why Acer is the bottom of the totem pole, it is either bad decisions for design or cheap decisions.
I Like it
Let us be real regarding plastic product, I bet 90% of those said product arent recycled.
Asus Swift, nice
The major challenge with these laptops, and by "these laptops" I mean Acer and Asus is that the design and engineering teams seem to be misaligned, and the marketing team is just clueless about where to place this product. These laptops are notorious for throttling and screaming fans, as in: "Put on your headphones with ANC dummy". End users are no longer accepting this and this laptop will be discontinued very swiftly. The 120Hz OLED is what will grasp the attention of many people and they will think it has the 4050 but seeing it has a small power brick it can be expected that this GPU only draws 60W if not 45W. It just does not compute.

These laptop manufacturers need to stop selling us cheap quality machines at a premium. I seriously hope Apple boosts the GPU performance of their machines so that it undercuts the market. The windows laptop space is getting way to uppity for what they are offering. And this is coming from someone who doesn't even like MacOS.
Unfortunately, Apple has their own issues... Try connecting a 27" 1440p monitor to a MacBook and enjoy the blurry font, whereas a normal windows/linux laptop/desktop looks sharp. All thanks to Apple removing a feature a few generations ago from MacOS to sell more 4/5K monitors. Apple is great hardware, annoying lockdown practices, overpriced upgrades and frankly, an OS that feel more like 2010 Unix.
@@benjiro8793 Yup. That's the biggest issue with Apple. And a scary one at that. They are spearheading the market and I literally was forced to buy a mac for the first time last week because nothing else would suit my needs. I just hate the idea of being trapped into their ecosystem, but sometimes you have no choice.
The price is disgusting.

noisy fans it s a clear and loud NO for me
Yes, i am crazy about this laptop. Acer is the best of best, literally perfect.
