Rating: ★★★★☆
Acer’s Swift AI 16 is nearly identical to the 14-inch version aprt from its larger size. Built with a crisp keyboard and OLED screen, it’s heavier but offers vibrant visuals and sound. Battery life didn’t meet the 29-hour claim in practical tests, ending after 12 hours of streaming nonstop, but it’s decent for everyday tasks. The screen’s colour accuracy at 130% of the DCI-P3 spectrum stands out, making it ideal for multimedia use. The laptop also boasts impressive speakers. Some ports, like Ethernet, are missed, but the device works well overall. It’s a solid choice for those seeking a mix of connectivity and performance in a sleek design.
