With an arguably affordable price tag, the Swift X 14 offers a — er — <em>swift </em>CPU, and an efficient GPU, that impressed us in its benchmarks, making it one of the <a href="https://mashable.com/roundup/best-laptops" target="_self" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body">best laptops</a> we've tested this year.

With the High preset on 1080p, the Acer Swift X 14 notched a <strong>77 fps</strong> average.

That is truly a great deal!</p><p>Overall, the Acer Swift X 14 has a darling OLED display that is a visual treat. Plus, for photo and video editors who need a machine that can handle their workloads, the Swift X 14 has plenty of graphics and processing oomph (though you can hear them working with the fan noise kicking in). Plus, there's a microSD card for creators and a fingerprint reader for security-minded users.</p><p>On top of that, you can squeeze out more than 8 hours from the Acer Swift X 14, which isn't half bad for a laptop with discrete graphics.</p><p>Everything else, including the webcam, audio, and keyboard are yawn-worthy, but they're not terrible either. Overall, I'd definitely recommend the Swift X 14 to users who want a Windows PC who can handle their creative tasks during the day — and facilitate gaming at night. </p><div class="flex flex-col mx-auto mt-8 mb-16 max-w-3xl font-sans md:flex-row pogoClear"> <div class="mx-auto w-64 md:mx-0 md:w-1/3"> <a class="block group" href="https://zdcs.link/GdXYV?pageview_type=Standard&template=review&module=shop-card&element=offer&item=image&element_label=image&object_type=review&object_uuid=01x6IKnKjSBImsv5ZMo7HWz&short_url=GdXYV&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Freview%2Facer-swift-x-14" rel="sponsored" data-ga-action="product_image" data-ga-label="image" data-ga-item="image" data-ga-element="offer" data-ga-module="shop-card" data-ga-position="2" data-ga-click target="_blank" title="(opens in a new window)"> <img class="w-full" src="https://helios-i.mashable.com/imagery/reviews/01x6IKnKjSBImsv5ZMo7HWz/images-2.fill.size_256x144.v1716713568.jpg" alt="Acer Swift X 14 on a table" width="256" height="144" loading="lazy"> <div class="block relative mx-14 group-hover:visible tooltip"> <span class="absolute invisible p-1 mt-2 text-xs text-center text-white group-hover:visible tooltiptext bg-gray-600/0 group-hover:bg-gray-600/100"> Opens in a new window </span> </div> </a> <div class="mt-2 leading-none text-left"> <span class="pr-5 mt-1 text-xs text-gray-600 subtitle-2">Credit: Kimberly Gedeon / Mashable</span> </div> </div> <div class="pl-0 mt-3 w-full md:pr-10 md:pl-7 md:mt-0 md:w-2/3"> <a href="https://zdcs.link/GdXYV?pageview_type=Standard&template=review&module=shop-card&element=offer&item=title&element_label=Acer%20Swift%20X%2014&object_type=review&object_uuid=01x6IKnKjSBImsv5ZMo7HWz&short_url=GdXYV&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Freview%2Facer-swift-x-14" rel="sponsored" class="block mb-5 text-xl font-bold leading-8 text-center md:text-2xl md:text-left hover:underline text-secondary-300" data-ga-action="offer-title" data-ga-item="title" data-ga-element="offer" data-ga-module="shop-card" data-ga-label="Acer Swift X 14" data-ga-position="2" data-ga-click title="(opens in a new window)" target="_blank"> Acer Swift X 14 </a> <div class="flex justify-between items-center py-0 md:space-x-2"> <div class="md:w-2/3" style="line-height: 0.75rem"> <span class="text-sm font-bold">$1,299.00</span> <span class="text-xs"> at Amazon</span> <br> </div> </div> <a class="font-bold leading-6 text-center hover:underline" href="https://zdcs.link/GdXYV?pageview_type=Standard&template=review&module=shop-card&element=offer&item=buy-button&element_label=Get%20Deal&object_type=review&object_uuid=01x6IKnKjSBImsv5ZMo7HWz&short_url=GdXYV&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Freview%2Facer-swift-x-14" rel="sponsored" target="_blank" data-ga-action="buy-link" data-ga-item="buy-button" data-ga-label="Get Deal" data-ga-element="offer" data-ga-module="shop-card" data-ga-position="2" data-ga-click title="(opens in a new window)"> <button class="inline-block px-5 mt-3 w-full font-sans text-base font-bold tracking-wide md:w-auto md:text-lg btn btn-secondary">Get Deal</button> </a> </div> </div> <p></p> <section class="mx-auto max-w-3xl"> <div class="flex flex-wrap mt-8 w-full font-sans subtitle-2 editor-content"> <p> <span class="mr-1.5 font-sans font-bold">Topics</span> <a class="underline-link hover:no-underline text-secondary-300 " href="https://mashable.com/category/mashable-choice" aria-label="Navigate to the Mashable Choice tag" data-ga-click data-ga-label="$text">Mashable Choice</a> </p> </div> </section> </article> <div id="how-we-tested" class='mx-auto max-w-3xl'> <div class="px-6 pt-1 pb-9 mt-12 mb-12 border-l-8 md:mb-2 methodology editor-content bg-warmgray-100 border-secondary-100"> <div class="flex pt-8 space-x-2" data-ga-impression data-ga-category="methodology" data-ga-module="methodology_section" data-ga-label="Acer Swift X 14 (2024) review"> <svg class="inline-block w-6 h-6 align-middle fill-current"><use href="/images/icons/spritemap.svg#sprite-clipboard-check-light"></use></svg> <span class="text-lg font-bold leading-6">How we tested</span> </div> <p>We tested this laptop's CPU performance by running Geekbench 6, and we recorded its multi-core score.

For the graphics test, since this is a creator-focused laptop, we ran the GFXBench 5.0 benchmark (Aztec Ruins, 1440p, High Tier, Offscreen).</p><p>To test its gaming prowess, we ran <em>Cyperbunk 2077 </em>(High preset at 1080p)<em> </em>to determine how well it can handle graphics intensive, AAA titles. (We also tested its frames-per-second output with DLSS on.) Finally, we experimented with the display (e.g., surf YouTube and launch Netflix), explored the keyboard (i.e., we use LiveChat's typing speed test to assess its comfort levels), inspected the design and build quality, ran Spotify to test the speakers, took photos to determine webcam quality, and more.</p> </div> </div> <section class="mx-auto mt-12 max-w-3xl border-t border-gray-200 border-solid"> <div class="py-8 w-full"> <div class="flex flex-col items-center pb-8 border-b border-gray-200 md:flex-row md:space-x-8"> <div class="flex flex-col justify-center items-center space-y-4 text-center md:flex-row md:justify-start md:space-y-0 md:space-x-6 md:text-left"> <img class="w-24 h-24 rounded-full border border-gray-200" src="https://helios-i.mashable.com/imagery/defaults/fallback-thumbnail.fill.size_100x100.1.png" alt="Mashable Image" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy" > <div class="flex flex-col space-y-2"> <div class="w-full font-bold header-200">Kimberly Gedeon</div> <div class="w-full text-xl font-bold">East Coast Tech Editor</div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="mx-0 max-w-3xl font-serif editor-content"> <p>Kimberly Gedeon, at Mashable since 2023, is a tech explorer who enjoys doing deep dives into the most popular gadgets, from the latest iPhones to the most immersive VR headsets.
