The Acer Swift Go SFG16-72-00C faces the competition

The Acer Swift Go SFG16-72-00C is currently displayed in promotion at Acer France and offers a configuration/price ratio attractive for its category where it is one of the cheapest to offer such a large amount of RAM with such a recent and efficient screen/graphics solution but also a screen with such faithful colors and such high definition as well as Thunderbolt 4 connectivity.

Chassis, connections, screen of the Acer Swift Go SFG16-72-00C

This aluminum laptop opens 180° completely flat with a discreet design due to its thin and light dark silver color. It is cooled by the TwinAir system via 2 fans, 2 copper heat pipes and air grilles.

In terms of connectivity, this multimedia-oriented laptop PC is well equipped with its 2 USB-C Thunderbolt 4 (compared to 1 maximum usually), its practical HDMI video output to easily connect it to a TV for example, its Bluetooth 5.1 and 6-axis Wi-Fi to communicate and connect remotely, its audio port or its 2 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) providing transfers up to 10 times faster only in USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged into it.

Through the Windows Hello functionality and the integrated biometric reader, you can authenticate biometrically using fingerprint recognition.

When you need to better distinguish the keys, you can activate the backlighting of the chiclet keyboard.

Acer Swift Go SFG16-72-00C

The screen will delight fans of High Definition content since it adopts a 3.2K definition much higher than Full HD, here coupled with a 16/10th format more comfortable in height than the classic 16/9th which displays more information.
The screen also reproduces colors much more faithfully than average while ensuring great black depth as well as significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles. But also a low latency which, associated with the frequency of 120Hz, significantly strengthens the overall fluidity compared to the standard 60Hz.
Because the screen adopts DCI-P3 OLED specifications also implying a glossy coating which gives punch to the colors but is subject to reflections in a bright environment (eg outdoors).

Performance, autonomy of the Acer Swift Go SFG16-72-00C

The Acer Swift Go SFG16-72-00C is aimed at those looking for a thin and light High Definition & Fidelity nomadic laptop PC with high processor performance and multimedia orientation.

Some looking for a Student laptop 16-inch High Definition High Fidelity may be of interest because it is thin and light in addition to ensuring a battery life of approximately 9 hours in light use.

In addition to a high-capacity battery, to ensure such autonomy, this laptop relies on energy-efficient components.
This is the case of its energy-efficient SSD storage in addition to being silent, shock-resistant and fast.

In addition, the SSD here offers a significant capacity of 1000 GB to accommodate quantities of software and files, including personal creations.

On a daily basis, the SSD provides great responsiveness and fluidity, which notably involves rapid starts/stops, processing and launches of applications.

The SSD therefore accompanies the heart of this laptop very well.
Because it consists of a large amount of 32 GB RAM – twice the average – but also an Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processor Meteor Lake with 16 hybrid cores, AI services and integrated Intel Arc graphics solution.

We thus obtain solid general performance with which a maximum of users will be satisfied. And particularly the creators. Because the potential of this Ultrabook is revealed in areas that are intensive in RAM and CPU resources, taking advantage of multi-cores and AI, such as photo editing or video editing.
Under this type of work, processing is carried out much faster than with 16 GB DDR4/5 as well as a classic Quad/Hexa Core processor.

There is no graphics acceleration in processing, however, under this laptop PC since it does not have a dedicated graphics card.
However, thanks to the Intel Arc, whose performance is superior to the classic Iris Xe, we can watch HD photos and videos.

Playing is also possible if you are content with light to modest games. And that we are ready to make concessions such as a reduction in screen definition. Because in 3.2K a greater number of calculations are necessary than in Full HD which results in a lower number of fps.

Finally, expect heat and noise from this Ultrabook when it is pushed hard (e.g. processing).
To contain its temperatures, it can be associated, if necessary, with a ventilated support (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
