Acer’s Swift 3 OLED boasts a 2.8K HDR display, 12th Gen Intel H-series CPUs
Acer announced a new Swift 3 OLED laptop today as part of a larger refresh to its Swift and Spin lineups. Acer says the Swift 3 OLED is perfect for professionals who need solid performance on the move, as well as a display that can keep up with specialized software. The laptop’s aluminum chassis is just 0.7 inches (17.9mm) thin and weighs in at 3.08 pounds (17.9mm), but it packs in 12th Gen Intel Core H-series CPUs, up to 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and speedy PCIe 4.0 solid-state drive (SSD) storage. You can get it in Silver or Gold colors.
Intel Evo certification is achieved here, meaning you can expect at least 10 hours of battery life, snappy responsiveness when running on battery life, and near-instant wake from sleep. Wi-Fi 6E is also on board. Here’s a look at the Swift 3 OLED’s specifications as provided by Acer.
