pulling out the Acer Swift seven is like doing a great party trick at a bar you want to see just how thin a laptop can get everyone nods as you reveal the eight point nine eight millimeter thick swift seven because of these sizes you really do have to split hairs and it looks even more impressive because of the big 14-inch screen that's great at all but being the thinnest laptop in town isn't enough to keep my interest after that wow factor first impression what's more impressive is that I actually loved using the Swift seven as my main laptop it manages to include a bright 14 inch full HD display and one that's also a touchscreen all in a silent fanless body the keyboard is very typable and there's a large touchpad just beware that because this laptop is so thin the touchpad is just that a pad it doesn't click down so everything is done through tapping of course I had to compare it to other really thin laptops like the MacBook Pro and the HP Spectre the spectre is ten point four millimeters thick and even though it's only a hair over one millimetre difference you can really tell when stacking them up side by side but the Swift has an older slower CPU still fine for everyday use and a webcam that sits below the screen which is never a favorite yes these are forgivable but less so at this very premium $16.99 price sure calling yourself the world's thinnest laptop is a bit of a gimmick but I have to admit I had fun using the Swift 7 and never regretted throwing it in my band for some on the go laptop it
