    The real problem with this Acer Swift Go 14 is the price - I just checked my country’s local Acer store and Amazon (where the only model available on both seems to be the OLED one)….and the price ranges between 1200 and 1500 Euros (in usd that’s between $1300 and 1630). Not convenient when you can get similarly-specced “premium” laptops from other brands for less than 1000-1100 Euros.

      Yeah the pricing inconsistency is not a great thing, hopefully Acer will re-analyze their pricing. I suspect this machine will go on sale by BTS season if demand does not keep up. Thanks for watching as always!

      The non- oled version here in India after all card discounts here in India is nearly $1075-$1080
      Also I exchanged my old laptop for 70$
      So this laptop costed me $1006

      Hmm exactly the other way around for me... the Acer with OLED goes for 999€ with 16GB and 1100€ on sale with 32GB. In my area it’s kinda the cheapest ''premium'' laptop

    How is this one? Is it smooth to touch and has a barely there feel? You know how some keys are quite rough and textured.. how was this

    @4:50. I'm wondering where do you get those information and how many people really had issues because of the upward exhaust? Costco has this in stock (the 16" 32Gb Intel 185H version) and I'm highly tempted to go for it.

    I have the version with 32GB LPDDR5X RAM and OLED screen and I love it, it performs very nicely, I think you can install another M.2 NVMe SSD( just below the fans and beneath the daughter cable), I don't mind the old looks of it but very excited with the new CPU i7-155H, anyway, very nice detailed review, thanks 👍👍

      ​​@@vito3266chip with H in the end are not good for "business only" laptop coz the battery life drain faster.
      Basically this kind of laptops are good for gaming or rendering.
      If you want a laptop that has a long battery life or for business only, then choose a chip with an Y or U at the end of it
      H = high performance
      Y = ultra low power consumption
      U = low consumption

    Whats an alternative to this with better speakers? They don't have to be great speakers but not bad either.
    Please no 2 in 1 devices and something around the same price or cheaper.

      I guess you should worry a little. Flex cables should be inside the laptop chassis, so if it is visible but outside the chassis, you should return it

      In short about the new Intel Core Ultra laptop chips:
      There are Core Ultra 9,7 and 5, corresponding to i-9, i-7, i-5 (no 3 models). Within them there are faster chips ending in H, like this one Core Ultra 155H, and ending in U. The upgraded GPU comes with all H chips in 9,7 and 5. The U models don't have it, and they are a little weaker overall.
