Acer introduced the new Swift 14 laptop at CES 2023, which boasts a beautiful two-tone design and powerful 13th Gen Intel processors. It also marks a change for the company’s naming conventions. It’s done away with its numbered tiers like the Swift 3, 5, or 7, but that doesn’t mean the Swift 14 is entirely different. It is a successor to the Swift 5 and takes a lot of inspiration from it in terms of design. However, it packs even more power.
Since the Swift 5 was already one of the best Acer laptops out there, the new Swift 14 is all the more interesting. If you want to know more about it, we’ve rounded up everything you need to know before considering a purchase.

Acer Swift 14 Pricing and Availability
Acer announced the Swift 14 right at the start of 2023 during CES, and it’s set to be available to customers in EMEA regions this month. However, it’s set to launch in the US in March, so US users will have to wait a while longer.
Pricing is expected to start at $1,399.99 and you can expect to pay more depending on the configuration you want. It is also possible that you pay less. This entry-level price is usually for the first available configurations, so it’s possible the laptop will debut with a more expensive SKU and add cheaper options later.
What’s new in the Acer Swift 14?
Although the branding is new, the Acer Swift 14 is a successor to the Acer Swift 5 with the same overall design and display options. Compared to last year’s models, however, Acer has made a few upgrades that go beyond a typical spec bump.
13th generation Intel H-series processors
Starting with performance, the Acer Swift 14 features 13th Gen Intel Core processors, just like most laptops coming out in 2023. That’s to be expected, but Acer takes it a step further, switching from the P-series processors it used last year to H-series models this time.
Intel’s P-series processors were first introduced in 2022 and have a TDP of 28W, which is already a big step up from the 15W models we used to have. But this time, Acer bumps the power up to 45W, which means even more power with up to 14 cores and 20 threads.
Interestingly, Acer has kept the chassis nearly identical to the 2022 Swift 5, making this a fairly thin device for the performance it offers. The company touts over 9.5 hours of battery life, although it remains to be seen how that holds up in real life with such a power-hungry processor.
An even better webcam
2022 was the year companies started taking laptop webcams seriously, and Acer upgraded the Swift 5 with a great 1080p camera with momentary noise cancellation. But this year the company is stepping up again and using a camera that supports Quad HD or 1440p resolution. That means even better video quality from the camera for your video calls and meetings.
While there are laptops with 5-megapixel sensors and higher, many of them only support 1080p video, so it’s nice to see Acer going further to deliver better quality. Acer has also incorporated new PurifiedVoice technology to improve your sound on those calls.
Where can I buy the Acer Swift 14?
As we mentioned above, the Acer Swift 14 isn’t available yet, as it’s not scheduled to launch in North America until March. Typically, Acer laptops are first introduced on Amazon, so we expect them to be available for purchase there. We’ll be sure to have a link here as soon as it becomes available.
