Acer Swift Go 16 (2024) Review

 

Compelling value ; Excellent performance and battery life ; Broad array of ports ; 1440p webcam with conferencing audio assist

Lackluster keyboard ; While decent, screen can't match sharper OLEDs ; Mediocre build quality and bloatware

The under-$1,000, IPS-screened, Intel Core Ultra-powered version of Acer's Swift Go 16 lacks finesse but delivers plenty of speed and battery life for the price.

Acer Swift Go 16 Review

 

Gobsmackingly good display ; Sturdy metal build ; Modest size and weight for a 16-incher ; Solid everyday performance

Lackluster graphics performance ; Ho-hum keyboard ; Middling battery life

Acer's Swift Go 16 isn't cheap, but its value is undeniable, with a phenomenal display in a well-built chassis. Only its keyboard and battery life keep it off the award podium.

Acer Swift Go (SFG16-72) review – Hot Offer

 

Despite its low weight and thin profile for a 16-incher, the Acer Swift Go (SFG16-72) offers adequate performance even in longer loads. The trade-off in this scenario is the high CPU temperature. Our advice is to avoid the configurations with just 8GB...

100% sRGB and DCP-P3 coverage + improved color accuracy with our “Design and Office” profile (SDC418D) ; Infinite contrast ratio (SDC418D) ; 598 nits of max brightness in HDR mode and 395 nits of peak brightness while viewing SDR content (SDC418D) ;...

Soldered memory ; PWM usage (SDC418D) ; 100°C CPU temperature in long stress ; The bottom display bezel is heated up to 58°C during heavy loads ; Noisy-ish fans in “Performance mode”

Acer Swift Go 16 Review: I Refuse To Call It An "AI Machine"

 

The Swift Go 16 is a good laptop that features a couple of cool AI tricks, sure. But it's far from being a true "AI machine."

Lightweight, durable build ; Excellent range of ports ; Efficient performance that tops several competitors

No OLED option ; Disappointing Battery life ; Keyboard is too shallow and stiff

Acer Swift Go 16 Review

 

The Acer Swift Go 16 will make a fine home desktop-replacer and occasional portable buddy, especially if you find it on sale.

Contrasty and colourful OLED screen ; Metal casing ; Higher-resolution webcam

Poor battery life for this class ; So-so keyboard and touchpad ; Basic, reflection-distorting plastic screen layer ; Ageing processor

The Acer Swift Go 16 will make a fine home desktop-replacer and occasional portable buddy, especially if you find it on sale. However, while it costs a bit less than some of its direct competition, short battery life and some noticeable more budget...

Acer Swift Go 16 Review: Strong CPU Performance Paired With a Big OLED

 

The Swift Go 16 is a good choice for those who want a big-screen laptop with productivity power, but it gets lost between Acer's own 16-inch Swift X and Swift Edge laptops.

Big, beautiful OLED display ; Lightweight for 16-inch laptop ; Strong application performance ; Great webcam

Integrated graphics ; Terrible speakers ; Below-average battery life

The Acer Swift Go OLED SFG16-71 is a large laptop that's designed to be taken everywhere without compromising on performance. With a potent-looking specification that includes an Intel Core i5 processor and 16GB of Ram, it's likely to be a nippy...
