Reviews for the Acer Swift 3 SF314-41-R4J1

Acer Swift 3 (2020) Review: More than your Usual Mid-Range Notebook
Source: Unbox English Archive.org version
For those looking for an under Php 45k laptop that offers an impressive performance-per-Peso value, Acer’s Ryzen-powered Swift 3 is an ideal choice. Aside from the proven performance of Ryzen 4000-series processors, the Swift 3 is one of the slimmer and more premium mid-range laptops you can buy today.

The Acer Swift 3 is an excellent choice for those after an all-rounder laptop at a reasonable price. It combines nice design and good build quality with a range of freatures and adequate performance. Some rivals are better in some areas, but the Swift 3 has it pros so it depends what's more important to you.

40% Acer Swift 3 SF314-41 review: Cheap but hardly cheerful
Source: It Pro English Archive.org version
The Acer Swift 3 may seem a decent choice if you’re running on a tight budget, but it fails to impress on several fronts. Its performance is middling at best for most day-to-day tasks but far too easily breaks a sweat when pushed, while its unimpressive display leaves a lot to be desired.

Comment

AMD Vega 3: Integrated graphics card of the Ryzen APUs based on the Vega architecture with 3 CUs (= 192 shaders) and a clock of up to 1200 MHz.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

R3 3200U: A dual-core APU with two Zen cores clocked at 2.6 GHz to 3.5 GHz (with SMT support for a total of 4 threads) and a Vega graphics adapter with 3 CUs clocked at up to 1,200 MHz. The Ryzen 3 is designed for laptops.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

Acer: In 1976, the company was founded in Taiwan under the name Multitech and was renamed Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors, TVs and computer peripherals. Since 2007, the group has merged with Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell, which also market their own laptop product lines.

Acer computers are designed for a variety of purposes, including ultrabooks for mobile use, gaming laptops for gamers, affordable options for everyday tasks, and 2-in-1 convertible laptops for versatility. Acer's product portfolio also includes tablets that offer portable computing and multimedia capabilities.


60%: Such a poor rating is rare. There are only a few notebooks that were rated even worse. The rating websites do not give a purchase recommendation here.
