Acer is releasing the latest models in the Swift Edge 16 and Swift Go 14 laptop range, featuring AMD Ryzen 8040 Series processors with up to AMD Radeon 780M Graphics and support for Acer’s AI-powered capabilities such as Acer PurifiedVoice, Acer PurfiedView, and the new Acer LiveArt photo-editing feature.
OLED displays produce clear images and rich colours supported by intuitive control and seamless navigation thanks to the AcerSense application and Copilot in Windows with instant access through dedicated keys. Microsoft Pluton technology, enabled by default, helps secure devices, personal data, and encryption keys.
The everyday AI companion can be accessed with a single click of the dedicated Copilot key, harnessing the power of AI to optimise time spent on tasks while working or creating. Acer’s AI-powered solutions such as Acer PurifiedView and Acer PurifiedVoice enhance conferencing sessions, while Acer QuickPanel allows for easy fixtures to the videoconferencing tools.
The AcerSense utility app helps users manage device systems with one click of the AcerSense key, and the new Acer LiveArt feature utilises AI technology to edit images with a control panel that instantly surfaces when an image or screenshot is taken.
