“The Acer Swift Go 14 is too vanilla to compete.”

Great creative and productivity performance ; Bright and vibrant OLED screen ; Respectable gaming performance at low settings ; Good wired and wireless connectivity

Average battery life ; Mediocre keyboard ; Tinny audio

The Acer Swift Go 14 (2024) offers cutting-edge performance in a portable package, with an excellent OLED screen. If you can compromise on the chunky styling, it’s a brilliant lightweight laptop.

Powerful processors ; Solid battery life considering performance ; Super-saturated OLED screen option

Basic keyboard and trackpad ; Unimpressive design

The Acer Swift Go 14 combines power and portability, without sacrificing all-day battery life. However, the design and feel of the keyboard and trackpad are firmly rooted in the series’s mid-range beginnings.

Outstanding performance, especially considering the price. Excellent collection of ports.

Chintzy build quality. Touchpad is a bit stiff and cranky. Keyboard backlighting isn’t the best. Terrible audio quality.

Vivid colour from 2.8K display ; First-class webcam ; Light and portable ; Speedy processor

No biometric login ; Not a touchscreen ; Limited keyboard ; Basic speakers

The Acer Swift Go 14 is a tale of two halves: while I'm not sold on the aesthetic, the keyboard, lack of biometric login, or the day-and-a-half-long battery life, that's just one side of the story. On the flip side: if you're looking for a fast working...

Exceptional price-to-performance ; Brilliant display ; Decent I/O for a thin-and-light

Unlovable keyboard ; A little thick

With the Swift Go 14 laptop, Acer crammed impressive performance into an affordable thin-and-light with a gorgeous OLED display. You'll just have to learn to live with the keyboard.

Ample connectivity ; Fantastic battery life ; Wonderful typing experience ; Strong performance ; Reasonably priced

Uninspiring design ; No OLED display

The Acer Swift Go 14 is a reliable travel workhorse through and through.

Excellent productivity scores ; Sleek aluminum chassis ; Highly affordable ; Tons of ports ; Bright panel

Subpar color depth ; Underwhelming battery life ; Sluggish trackpad

The Acer Swift Go 14 stuns in a $799 price point that balances great performance, a sleek design, tons of ports, and a bright panel.
