Acer has finally started selling one of its lightest 14-inch laptops internationally. Weighing just 990 g, the new Swift Edge 14 combines a 65 Wh battery with a 120 Hz OLED display, up to 32 GB of RAM, and a choice of Intel Panther Lake processors.
Intel Panther Lake Laptop Launch

Acer has finally started selling the latest version of the Swift Edge 14 internationally. For context, over seven months have passed since the company presented its 2026 edition powered by Intel Panther Lake processors. While we are still waiting on a global release, Acer has already started selling the larger Swift Edge 16 in the US, full details of which we have covered separately.

Currently, active retail listings exist across Czechia, Germany, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Switzerland and the UAE. However, none of these listings include the Core Ultra 9 386H that Acer mentioned in January during CES 2026. Instead, the Swift Edge 14 can be configured with up to the Core Ultra 7 355, which is available in the new Swift 16 too (curr. $1,199 on Amazon).

At the time of writing, Core Ultra 7 355-powered SKUs run to €1,439 (~$1,680) in the Eurozone with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage, CHF 1,269 (~$1,585) in Switzerland and CZK 33,990 (~$1,646) in Czechia. Moreover, the same configuration retails for AED 6,255 (~$1,703) and HKD 11,998 (~$1,530) in Hong Kong.

With that being said, the Swift Edge 14 starts with the lesser Core Ultra 5 325 in Hong Kong and Singapore, where it costs HKD 10,998 and SGD 2,599 (~$2,050) with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. Alternatively, the 14-inch laptop has reached Malaysia and Singapore for MYR 5,899 (~$1,460) and SGD 2,699 (~$2,125) with the same processor and RAM but 1 TB of storage.

Acer pairs the new Swift Edge 14 with 32 GB of RAM in some instances as well. For the time being, the 14-inch laptop costs MYR 6,999 and SGD 3,099 (~$2,440) with 32 GB of RAM, which Acer complements with 1 TB of storage and the Core Ultra 7 355, too. For reference, all SKUs mentioned feature an 1800p OLED display with 500 nits peak brightness and a 120 Hz refresh rate. Acer also includes a 65 Wh battery despite the new Swift Edge 14 weighing a mere 990g. Please see Acer's website for more details.
