> 3 dayThe RAM is soldered in with now expansion sockets! Really Acer? So buy as much RAM as you can get because youre not adding any! It does have two M.2 SSD slots, so thats nice.

> 3 dayMuy buena compra, no pesa mucho, es minimalista, muy rapida, elegante la batería dura mucho. Lo único que no me parece es que solo tiene 2 puertos USB, y no tiene puerto Ethernet.

Greater than one weekThis is a very great laptop and offers a lot of specs that you normally see in higher priced laptops. This laptop is great for the price point and is very fast and has a nice sleek/light weight design. The fan can get loud at times, but it is expected since the laptop only has one fan. The laptop is great for students who wish to run software like AutoCAD and Matlab. It can also handle light gaming. I have been able to run games such as metal gear solid 5 with no issues. Warzone runs fine but will begin to heat up the laptop more quickly. The laptop also comes with an extra SSD slot with makes upgrading a breeze, no need to do any cloning if you do not know how to. You only need to format the new SSD to run. Overall, I am very happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone look for a great laptop in the 1000-dollar range.

Greater than one weekI will put this first. I am unsure if the ram or solid state drive is set or if you can upgrade them. I did not try to open or upgrade the item. These are the two things you should research before purchasing this. Although with the current specification, I am sure you do not need to do that. This Acer laptop overall is an average size laptop and the specification are not bad for what you get. This laptop is relatively thin and not too heavy. It has a decent processor (ryzen 7). The ram is 16 gb which is well beyond the suggested nowadays. It will definitely work for most daily usage as well as design and gaming. That being said, it is not the best in terms of battery life. It really only last about three to four hours at most on a full charge. The fan is a bit loud on heavy usage. It is a standard AC charger which can make it a bit annoying to replace in the future if needed. The power brick is okay but does get hot while charging. You will need it plugged in to really game on this device. Upon boot up of the acer laptop, the laptop boots up fairly quick. The setup is pretty straight forward and does not require any driver installation. The bloatware is not too terrible. The laptop also has only a 14 inch screen with the max resolution at 1920 x 1080. The screen has an okay brightness but not the best quality. It still keep the traditional two USB port as well so you do not have to buy an adapter for this laptop while also having the type c (non thunderbolt) port. The laptop can be angled back for better viewing but it cannot be pushed back all the way. The laptop surface where the wrist rest is where I do not like the material. It looks nice with the bright silver but with long term use it will fade over time. The keys are okay, but not the best. I am not a fan of typing on them as it just feels a bit on the cheaper end. The external casing of this surface is very easy to scratch (seems to be an issue with all this material) so I would recommend that you get a laptop case for it. The trackpad runs pretty well, It is sensitive and feels smooth to move across. It also does not look like it will wear down easily which is good. There is a camera that will record at at least 720p. You could put a web cam cover on it. The dual microphone makes for a very clear voice and I have not had any issues with any sound issues. It usually does not pick up too much surrounding noise and focuses more on voice. On laptop, there is a 3.5 port to plug in headphones/microphone. It does have dual band wifi built in and no issues with speed/connection. The laptop itself can last about five to six hours or so on a full charge. Depending on how much you have open and how much you utilize the laptop capability, you could actually have less than that. Best thing to do is just balance the resource as best you can. The overall charge time depends but it can take up to three to charge the laptop to 100% from what I can tell. It is not too long and the charger does get hot so handle with care. It has a decent boot up being less than fifteen seconds to boot up but the bloatware has to go so I would recommend you uninstall that if possible. The speaker system is pretty loud but they do have a bit of a feedback noise that is a bit annoying but that is okay. The 3060 TI runs great! It is a very powerful card that allows you to game very well on this computer although the screen is only 14 inches. The fan also is a bit loud on high usage (gaming). The processor is an Ryzen 7 which is MORE than enough power for what I need it to do on a daily. In terms of video games, it can play many games at very high quality although you do need to have it plugged in. The processing speed is really fast and it works really well for what I need. There is an HDMI port so you are able to connect this to an external screen. I am unsure if there is a dock that is meant for this laptop. Overall this laptop is a a very powerful laptop. You get a smaller screen but the gaming on it is not bad. The acer laptop can run a bit hot and the battery life is not the best. The specification is not bad at 16 GB ram and 512 gb SSD drive. The space is decent for what I need it for but for gaming it will fill up fast. It is good for all around use and can easily be made into a work, gaming, or basic computer with a single monitor connection.

> 3 dayThe Acer Swift X is lightweight with well more than satisfactory graphical power. Excellent for students who want to do school assignments and games on the side. You really wont find a better price for what you get in a laptop. Only advise id give is to maybe wait for the new Swift X laptops to roll out since they have a better display and more graphical power. But in all honesty, even with the new laptops out this acer swift x is a very very good laptop to buy.

> 3 daySolid performance, only two complaints and neither are big deals to me. One, I dislike the champagne color of the lid. Second, the touch pad is not super accurate or responsive. I use a mouse most of the time personally so its not a big deal to me. Might be something that could be solved with settings around acceleration or something, or a driver issue. Solid laptop still around outside of that though. Keyboard has more travel than most lower end laptops and it performs like a gaming laptop.
