I ordered this computer for Christmas for my son in 2022 and within five months, the charging port is failing and sparks are seen when plugging it in. Otherwise, this laptop has functioned well, but this is a major flaw, so I recommend avoiding this product.

PROS

I own an acer swift 1 and needed a laptop with more ram and disk space and acer X gave me that plus all the bells and whistles. Its really loaded easy to setup. Color is off the charts good and very fast. I highly recommend. I received the laptop in 3 days well packaged.

I wouldnt game on it. I would do ok for things that are not gpu intensive. They underclocked the GPU so you dont get the full power out of it but I caught it on sale and it was the cheapest laptop that fit my specs. Works great, great battery life and fantastic to work from home. Only downside are the small compress chiclet keys, but its a laptop.

I am a computer science student + work with adobe programs and this laptop really does not struggle with anything. I can carry it around college and not feel like a brick in my back and has a beautiful design!

For some reason this computer doesnt let me optimize video when sharing screen on Zoom. I even reinstall Windows 11 and it still doesnt work

Whats a laptop with a dead WiFi card ? An expensive paper weight. And it doesnt help when the manufacturers website cannot identify their own product with the S/N or SNID. Acer is now on my business no-buy list. Decent NVIDIA/AMD power horse for architectural software, but when it fails and cant repair WiFi connectivity, its just a kids gaming trinket.

The laptop has a ryzen 7 processor and a 3050 Ti for the price you honestly couldnt get a product that offers more than the acer swift x. I cannot recommend this product because the moment I turned it on the fan just started kicking in and would never stop. I tried pressing Fn+F to put the laptop on quiet mode and the fan will slow down for 2 seconds before sounding loud again. I honestly cant use the laptop to study because the fan noise is too distracting especially when you connected it to an external monitor.

This is a pretty impressive little laptop. Its very quiet and when you combine that with the small size it makes it easy to take and use everywhere. Its great for playing mid-level graphic intensive games. The rendering is fast and smooth and the color and brightness of the display look amazing. It has an empty M.2 slot so I was able to add a separate drive to be dedicated for my gaming. It doesnt let you expand the RAM, though, and I would have appreciated that. Im impressed by how quickly the fiingerprint scanner works, almost better than my old Tab S7. It has little feet along the back of the display that lifts the laptop in the back when you open it to allow for more airflow. This makes it possible for me to use the machine without needing my lap desk fan. Another great feature is that there arent any buttons on the sides of the laptop so you cant bump them and turn it on when youre trying to slide it into a bag, Everything is on the keyboard, and the keys on the keyboard are standard size. This is great for the times my husband uses it because he has beefy fingers. It has a USB C, 2 standard USB, and 1 HDMI port which I find is perfect for my needs. Overall, Im impressed with this machine and I recommend it.
