Deal | Acer Swift Go 16 AI with Panther Lake processor, OLED touchscreen still available for under $700
Best Buy is presently offering the Acer Swift Go 16 AI for just $699.99, almost a third off its list price. It has a 16-inch OLED touch panel with a WUXGA resolution (1920 × 1200), full coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, and a peak brightness of 250 nits.
Inside, there's Intel's Core Ultra 5 322, a Panther Lake processor with two P-cores (up to 4.4 GHz), four LP E-cores (up to 3.3 GHz), as well as two Xe3 graphics cores, joined by 16 GB of LPDDR5X memory and a 512 GB PCIe 4.0 SSD (Crucial P310 1 TB SSD curr. $179.99 on Amazon).
Connectivity includes two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports (40 Gbps, DisplayPort 1.4, Power Delivery), a pair of 10 Gbps USB-A (1x 10 Gbps, 1x 5 Gbps), HDMI 2.1 up to 48 Gbps, and a 3.5 mm audio combo jack. An Intel BE211 wireless card adds Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 support.
The laptop's aluminum alloy chassis measures 14 × 9.7 × 0.62 inches (356 × 246 × 15.7 mm) and tips the scales at just 3 lb (1.36 kg), while packing a 71 Wh battery capable of charging at up to 100 W with the included USB-C power adapter.
The Swift Go 16 AI has a user review score of 4.7/5, with buyers praising the vibrant OLED display, battery life, and keyboard. The main sticking point is the display's disappointing maximum brightness, which will make outdoor use a challenge.
