The new devices, Acer Swift X 14 AI and Swift X 14, are designed for professionals and content creators. They offer powerful performance and built-in AI tools to support creative workflows. The Swift X 14 AI is powered by AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 Series processors. It enables on-device rendering, modeling, and real-time visualization. Acer revealed this model as a Copilot+ PC, equipped to handle AI-intensive tasks. It features AI experiences such as Recall (preview), Click to Do (preview), enhanced Windows Search, Cocreator, Live Captions, Image Creator, and Windows Studio Effects.

Both models come with NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPUs. These are built on NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture and support AI-accelerated workflows. Acer reported that both laptops are NVIDIA Studio-validated and include NVIDIA Studio Drivers for optimized performance out of the box. They also support NVIDIA DLSS 4 and access to NVIDIA NIM Microservices for building AI assistants and agents. Each laptop features a 14.5-inch Calman-verified 3K OLED touchscreen. The screens are calibrated for color accuracy and support the full DCI-P3 color range. They offer a 16:10 aspect ratio and are VESA DisplayHDR™ TrueBlack 500 certified.

Acer's going all-in on OLED laptops at Computex 2025
All the major PC manufacturers are going to be showing off new hardware at Computex 2025 in Taiwan next week, and it looks like Acer is going to have some slick new laptops with Nvidia RTX 50-series GPUs and OLED displays. I'm excited about that because I'm a sucker for a great OLED panel, and Acer has some new Swift laptops that look like they could be serious contenders for the best Windows laptops of 2025. But unfortunately, as of now Acer is not talking about when these laptops will be available in the United States—only Europe and other countries around the world. Presumably this has something to do with the ongoing uncertainty around tariffs here in the U.S., so hopefully I'll be able to update this article with U.S. pricing in the near future. For now, here's all the key details you need to know about Acer's laptop lineup at Computex 2025! The flagship of Acer's Computex laptop lineup is the new Swift X 14, a 4-pound notebook aimed at creators that comes with AI-ready AMD or Intel chips, Nvidia GeForce RTX 50-series laptop GPUs and a 14-inch OLED display. Acer Swift X 14 Acer Swift X 14 AI Starting price €1,799 €1,799 Display 14.5-inch 3K (2880x1800) OLED touchscreen 14.5-inch 3K (2880x1800) OLED touchscreen CPU Up to Intel Core Ultra 9 285 Up to AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 GPU Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Memory Up to 32GB Up to 32GB Storage Up to 1 TB SSD Up to 1 TB SSD Webcam 1080p w/ IR 1080p w/ IR Ports 2x Thunderbolt 4, 2x USB-A, HDMI, MicroSD 2x USB-C, 2x USB-A, HDMI, MicroSD, headphone jack Size 12.69 x 8.95 x 0.71 in 12.69 x 8.95 x 0.71 in Weight 3.48 lbs 3.46 lbs These laptops look slick as heck and could be awfully useful for audio/video professionals on the go, since they offer powerful hardware and a 14.5-inch 3K (2880x1800) OLED touchscreen that Acer claims covers 100% of the demanding DCI-P3 color gamut. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The models with Intel chipsets are simply branded the Acer Swift X 14, and they come with a pair of Thunderbolt 4 ports but no headphone jacks. The AMD models are sold as the Acer Swift X 14 AI and do offer headphone ports, but they sport plain USB-C ports instead of Thunderbolt 4 since that's an Intel technology. These laptops are slated to go on sale in Europe in July starting at €1,799, with no word yet on pricing or launch plans for other regions. Acer also has some new notebooks to show off in its more affordable Swift Edge and Swift Go lineups, though these also sport premium OLED screens. Acer Swift Go 14/16 AI Acer Swift Edge 14 AI Starting price €1,199 €1,599 Display 14-inch 3K (2880x1800) OLED touchscreen 14.5-inch 3K (2880x1800) OLED touchscreen CPU Up to Intel Core Ultra 9 288 Up to Intel Core Ultra 7 258 GPU Intel Arc Intel Arc Memory Up to 32GB Up to 32GB Storage Up to 2 TB SSD Up to 1 TB SSD Webcam 1080p w/ IR 1080p w/ IR Ports 2x Thunderbolt 4, 2x USB-A, HDMI, MicroSD 2x Thunderbolt 4, 2x USB-A, HDMI, MicroSD, headphone jack Size 12.3 x 8.8 x 0.6 | 14 x 9.8 x 0.6 in 12.35 x 9.02 x 0.65 Weight 3.06 | 3.53 lbs 2.18 lbs The new Acer Swift Go laptops come in 14-inch or 16-inch varieties, but they all pack Intel Lunar Lake chips and 3K OLED touchscreens. With sizable RAM and storage capabilities these look likely to be solid workhorses for students and remote workers alike. Again, there's no word yet on pricing or launch plans for North America. However, Acer did say it plans to launch the Swift Go 14 in Europe in July for a starting price of €1,199, with the 16-inch model launching in the same region a month later for €1,299. There's also a lighter, more expensive Swift Edge 14 AI that's coming out in Europe this June starting at €1,599. This slick ultraportable also comes with a 14-inch 3K OLED touchscreen, but it's slightly thinner and over a pound lighter than the Swift Go 14 AI. Plus, Acer claims the Edge 14 AI is " the world's first laptop to incorporate Corning® Gorilla Matte Pro surface treatment," which is intended to seriously cut down on glare and reflections when using the laptop in bright light. We're at Computex all week reporting live from the show floor, so we'll keep an eye out for these new laptops—stay tuned!
