Here at PCWorld, we all love great deals on great hardware—like this crazy discount on the Acer Swift X 16 gaming laptop. “That’s a LOT of laptop for $899!” said one of our editors when I shared with him this hot deal on Acer’s gaming laptop at B&H.
And he’s right. That’s a stunning price for a laptop with a Ryzen 9 CPU, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 GPU, 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a high-resolution OLED display. In fact, we reviewed this laptop with this exact config and praised its performance.
During our tests of the Acer Swift X 16, the 8-core Ryzen 9 7940HS processor achieved fantastic results on all benchmarks, outperforming numerous laptops in its class. Similarly, as far as graphics performance, it excelled and scored big across the board, even surpassing other gaming laptops with superior hardware.
And then there’s that gorgeous 16-inch OLED screen with its 3200×2000 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. “Image quality is outstanding. The OLED panel has an effectively infinite contrast level, a perfect minimum brightness of zero nits, and high color accuracy,” noted our reviewing expert Matt Smith. Between all that, the RAM, and the SSD, this laptop is a phenomenal buy at this price.
If there are any downsides here, it’s that we weren’t thrilled about its battery life or that it’s powered using a barrel plug instead of USB-C. But at this price, you can forgive it those flaws. Don’t miss this chance to snag the Acer Swift X 16 for $899! Deals like this come and go fast.
