Deal | Acer Swift Go 14 with 2.8K OLED display, Ryzen 7 7840U, and 16 GB RAM becomes an enticing option after 20% discount
If you are on the hunt for a portable productivity machine with good performance and a capable display, you might want to look at the Acer Swift Go 14 which is now enjoying a $200 discount on Acer’s official store. At the discounted price of $799.99, the laptop presents a strong case thanks to its 8-core Ryzen 7 7840U CPU with its Radeon 780M iGPU and OLED panel.
Per our testing, the Ryzen 7 7840U is on par with Intel’s latest Core Ultra 7 155H and the Core Ultra 9 185H delivering performance that should suffice for handling demanding tasks. Moreover, thanks to the Radeon 780M iGPU, the Ryzen 7 7840U can even be used for light gaming. For instance, Prince of Persia The Lost Crown ran at north of 100 FPS at FHD/Ultra during our playthrough.
On the display front, the Acer Swift Go 14 should delight almost all users. Our review of the Core i5-1335U config (Available on Amazon) of the machine highlighted the panel’s full coverage of the DCI-P3 gamut, 285 nits of max brightness, and 90 Hz refresh rate.
Finally, our review device lasted 7.5 hours in the Wi-Fi websurfing test, a result that could be extended to over 8 hours with dark mode. Users can expect measurably longer runtimes from the Acer Swift Go 14 on sale since it packs a noticeably bigger 65 Wh cell.
