Acer has unveiled two new additions to its ‘powered by Snapdragon’ line-up of laptops, both of which will go on sale across Europe later this year.
Swift Spin 14 AI
Described as “a premium ultraportable AI laptop”, the convertible Swift Spin 14 AI features Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 Elite or Snapdragon X2 Plus processor.
The 360-degree hinges allow for easy switching between modes such as productivity and note taking, and features a touch-enabled 14-inch WUXGA IPS glass display.
It’s available in configurations of up to 32 GB of LPDDR5X memory and up to 1 TB of SSD storage, features an integrated Adreno GPU and is capable of supporting up to three external 4K monitors.
Acer quotes a “multi-day” battery life of up to 23 hours for video playback and 16.5 hours when web browsing. For quick power-ups, the device offers fast charging with up to a 100-watt DC-in port via USB 4 Type-C.
Connectivity options include USB Type-C, dual USB Type-A, and HDMI 2.1 ports.
The Acer Swift Spin 14 AI will be available in North America in August 2026, EMEA in July 2026, and in Australia in Q3.
