83% Acer Swift 3 (SF314-43-R2YY) Review
Source: Digit week English
The Acer Swift 3 (SF314-43-R2YY, AMD) is an affordable mainstream laptop that offers amazing performance for its mid-range price. Its main highlights include an AMD Ryzen 5700U CPU, long battery life and a lightweight chassis. However, its display isn’t as bright as it should, and its speakers could definitely use more pep as well. If you’re looking for something with a brighter, a more vibrant and colorful display and some spirited speakers, you might want to check out the HP Envy 13, which runs for around the same price. Otherwise, this Acer Swift 3 SF314-43-R2YY shows that it can provide you with a great laptop experience, and is especially good for those looking to use it more for work and school.

Above all, this display size is used for subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles. For all three types, this size is quite large. The biggest variety of subnotebooks is represented with this size.
