The Swift 3X features the new Intel® Iris® Xe MAX discrete graphics solution paired with 11th Gen Intel Core processors in order to offer creative professionals such as photographers and YouTubers unique capabilities and powerful on-the-go performance for work and gaming. Modern and featherlight, the 1.37 kg[3] (3.02 lbs) Swift 3X breezes through the most task-intensive apps for up to 17.5 hours[1] at a time and, if necessary, can also be fast-charged to provide four hours of use in just 30 minutes. Colors pop and details come to life on a 14-inch FHD IPS[2] screen that covers 72% of the NTSC color gamut and offers an 84% screen-to-body ratio, while content loads more quickly thanks to the faster connection speeds of Intel® Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+). The Swift 3X also comes with a plentiful array of ports, including USB-C, Thunderbolt™ 4 and USB3.2 Gen 2, ensuring fast and convenient data transfer.
“The Swift series has always been about pushing the envelope, trying to fit as much power into as portable a package as possible,” said Jerry Kao, Co-COO, Acer Inc. “The new Swift 3X continues that mindset, with discrete graphics in a sleek chassis for those who need style and performance on the go.”
