Title: Acer Swift X 16 (2022) review: 16-inch laptop with powerful updates
Post by: Redaktion on November 02, 2022, 02:15:26
The Acer Swift X 16 (2022) is a light 16-inch laptop with additional graphics performance. The bright display finally comes in the 16:10 format and offers a high resolution. Intel's Alder Lake P-Core i7 CPU helps the multimedia laptop to develop a powerful performance. But how does Intel's Arc A370M fare?

Wow, that's a crazy level of tech detail but I stopped paying attention as soon as I saw this is another laptop with a numeric keypad. It drives me crazy when the main keyboard and touchpad are offset like that. It also removes the possibility of decent speakers either side of a less cramped keyboard. So hard pass here but wow for this level of tech details.

Thanks! :) just the bare basic stuff I'd say, haha. Maybe you're interested in the review of the smaller 14-inch model (https://www.notebookcheck.net/Acer-Swift-X-14-laptop-review-with-RTX-3050-Underchallenged-i5-1240P.666658.0.html)?

Can't fit in a numpad in that one at least ;) I got even more detailed on that one but it is still "just" a review update like this one is, which means a lot of info is even missing, haha :D a full review is something like the one of the Asus ROG Flow X16 (https://www.notebookcheck.net/Asus-ROG-Flow-X16-laptop-review-2-in-1-gamer-with-mini-LED.638734.0.html). No numpad there either but a rather "different" price tag ofc ;)

best regards

All these benchmarks and you left out a key test, AV1 encoding / decoding. Seriously?
The ONLY laptop on your list with HARDWARE support for AV1 and you didn't even bother to test it. About every other content creation benchmark except that one.

Nice miss there.
