The Acer Swift X is uniquely positioned to offer very good performance for creators while still being highly portable and compact, which is rare to find. It looks good, performs well, and has a comfortable keyboard as well as a bright and vivid display. Battery life is also pretty satisfactory, even though it doesn't quite live up to Acer's claims. If I had to knock a few points off, then that would be for the average quality webcam and lack of an SD card slot. I'm not a big fan of the cramped direction pad either. The Swift X runs very hot when stressed, particularly when gaming, which is to be expected since this chassis wasn't exactly designed with gaming in mind. The Acer Swift X could be a very good option if you want an ultraportable with reasonable battery life that can handle content creation software and even some games if the occasion calls for it. However, if gaming is a priority, then I'd recommend looking at Acer's Nitro or Asus' TUF series of laptops, which offer more competitive specs and better cooling for roughly the same or even lower prices.

We didn’t anticipate this. We knew that the Swift X is a really promising prospect, but we didn’t see that coming. Gone are the days where you need a bulky device for your professional needs, or to play the latest AAA titles. The technology has gone so far that an ultrabook that weighs 1.39 kilos has enough processing power to completely obliterate the full-blown 45W chips from the last couple of years.

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.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
