Verdict
The Acer Swift Go 16 AI offers an impressive combination of performance and portability. It not only impresses with its outstanding OLED display, long battery life, and powerful AMD Ryzen AI processor, but also with its design. Weighing in at 1.5 kg, the laptop is perfectly suited for on-the-go use. The aluminum casing gives it a modern, sleek appearance and adds to its toughness.
Potential problems could arise over time with the warm airflow onto the OLED panel. Also, the fan noise under full load and the relatively moderate speaker quality might be a thorn in the side of demanding users. The 16 GB of built-in RAM could also prove insufficient for extensive AI applications.
Despite these points, the Acer Swift Go AI remains an impressive laptop within its class, especially considering its price point below 1000 Euros.
Pros
Cons
Specifications
Case and connectivity
The Acer Swift Go presents itself as sleek, slightly angular, and made of aluminum. The screen lid is adorned with fine lines and subtle branding. When opened with one hand, the laptop lifts slightly at the back, which improves ergonomics and cooling. This gives the laptop a high-end appearance.
The 2.5K webcam in its small protrusion on the display produces good images. Stable Wi-Fi connectivity is ensured by a MediaTek module with Wi-Fi 7. On the left side of the laptop, most connections are concentrated. Two USB-4 ports are also available here.

Sustainability
The device is EPEAT registered and provides solid transparency regarding its environmental impact through the provision of a PCF document (Product Carbon Footprint). The fact that it is easy to access and clean is a plus. The case is removable, the SSDs and WLAN modules are swappable, and there's a second M.2 SSD slot hidden under the flat cable that connects to the sub-board.
Input devices
The keyboard of the Swift Go 16 AI offers a complete layout, including a dedicated number block. Backlighting and nice, well-defined pressure points are hallmarks of these keys. The generously sized touchpad operates precisely. As a special feature, it signals via subtle lighting effects when the NPU (Neural Processing Unit) of the processor or other AI functions are actively used.
Display
The Acer Swift Go 16 AI is equipped with an outstanding OLED display that immediately catches the eye. Expectations for this panel technology's signature vivid presentation with flawless blacks and extraordinarily high contrasts are satisfied. The 2,880 x 1,800 pixel resolution (16:10 format) is somewhat unusual, but it provides an outstanding pixel density. To ensure particularly smooth display performance, it features a refresh rate of 120 Hz.

For creatives, color gamut coverage is crucial: The display covers nearly the entire Display P3 color space. The color accuracy out of the box is already remarkably good, requiring little calibration. Flickering during image refreshment is a characteristic of OLED panels. This happens here at a frequency of 220 to 250 Hz.

| The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 39 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (20.2 ms). | ||

| The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 6 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (31.7 ms). | ||
Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
| Screen flickering / PWM detected | 220 Hz Amplitude: 82 % | ||
The display backlight flickers at 220 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) . The frequency of 220 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8145 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. | |||
Performance
Acer provides a variety of hardware configurations for the Swift Go AI. Our test device is equipped with the AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 processor, accompanied by 16 GB of RAM, which seems somewhat limited considering the powerful processor.
Testing conditions
Processor
The Ryzen AI 7 delivers a comparatively high CPU performance that suffices for all tasks on a day-to-day basis. However, when directly compared to the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9 and MSI Prestige AI in pure computational benchmarks, it must concede to more powerful competitors such as the Intel Core Ultra 9 285H or the Intel Core Ultra 7 255H. These Intel chips offer higher clock speeds and sometimes superior single-core performance.

System performance
In the overall picture of system performance, this difference is rather negligible. This can be attributed to the excellent tuning of the components. The fast LPDDR5X memory and the powerful integrated graphics unit (iGPU) significantly contribute to ensuring that the entire system operates smoothly and responsively at all times.

Storage devices
The mass storage consists of a 1 TB NVMe SSD from Kingston. The transfer rates are decent and in everyday use ensure fast boot times and quick loading processes. However, a weakness is the temperature-dependent performance throttling during prolonged sustained read or write operations. The SSD cannot maintain its high performance under continuous load.

GPU performance
The integrated AMD Radeon 860M (iGPU) is powerful for a mobile solution. To achieve playable frame rates (FPS) in modern games, it's advisable to limit the resolution to Full HD and choose medium quality settings. Higher settings can quickly lead to a significant drop in FPS in current AAA titles, severely affecting game smoothness. For casual gaming and older games, however, the 860M offers solid performance.

Emissions & Energy
System noise
A robust set of eardrums is necessary for those who want to get the most out of this device. While the Acer Swift Go remains almost inaudible during normal operation, it becomes quite loud in our stress test with maximal cooling. We measured up to 53 dB(A) at a distance of 15 cm.

Temperatures
The surface temperatures of the Swift Go are mostly manageable for users. Keys, hand rest areas, and touchpad remain at comfortable temperatures even during stress tests. We're more concerned about the hot air blowing onto the OLED panel, which measures over 50 °C on the lower edge of the display. At such high temperatures, OLED panels could lose a part of their lifespan.
(±) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 45 °C / 113 F, compared to the average of 36.9 °C / 98 F, ranging from 21.1 to 71 °C for the class Multimedia.
(+) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 38 °C / 100 F, compared to the average of 39.2 °C / 103 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 28.9 °C / 84 F, compared to the device average of 31.3 °C / 88 F.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 27 °C / 80.6 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(±) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.7 °C / 83.7 F (+1.7 °C / 3.1 F).

Speakers
The speakers of the Swift Go AI reach approximately 83 dB(A) and provide a clear sound for speech and podcasts. Their bass response is rather weak, and their treble response is slightly overdone. Therefore, their sound dynamics are not ideal for movies or music.

Power consumption
The included 100-watt power supply is more than sufficient here – the measured maximum consumption reaches briefly up to 98 watts. After the short boost phase, there's enough power available for the laptop even during stress tests to charge its battery.
In standby mode, the system consumes 6-9 watts, which is typical for many IPS panel laptops. Thus, considering an OLED display, the Swift Go AI can boast a comparatively low power consumption.

Battery life
