As you can tell, there's a lot to like about the Acer Swift 3. Our only real gripes are with the keyboard's cursor cluster, which you can master with a little practice, and the slightly dim display, which we don't want to overemphasize. If we don't sound as excited about this model as we do about the Swift 1, it's because it's less of a bargain—good laptops are a lot scarcer at $329 than they are at $649 (though they're a lot rarer there than they are at the price points of machines like the ThinkPad X1 Carbon). But if you're looking for a slim and light, 14-inch productivity partner that stays well south of four figures, the Swift 3 belongs on your short list.
