Title: Acer Swift 3 and Aspire 5 powered by Intel Whiskey Lake-U get listed online
Post by: Redaktion on August 25, 2018, 13:27:22
New Acer laptops powered by Intel 'Whiskey Lake-U' CPUs have started showing up in online retail stores in Europe. The Acer Swift 3 and the Acer Aspire 5 are powered by the Intel Core i7-8565U and apart from the CPU refresh, nothing much seems to have changed compared to their respective variants already in the market. The listed prices are close to €1,000 and the laptops are expected be announced during IFA 2018.

Hey, just a tip: Switzerland doesn't use euros but its own currency (francs, CHF). The price isn't €999 but rather €874 :)

Hey there Jordi,
Was wondering that the Digitec site that mentioned the 999 price is in German so wouldn't that be a Euro pricing?

Ah, never mind. Figured out the site is Swiss. Thanks for the correction :)
