Just over the weekend, Acer just unveiled yet another world's lightest 16-inch OLED laptop - the Swift Edge (SFA16-41). Surprisingly, the laptop is now available in Malaysia starting from RM5299. What does it feature? Let's check out the details below.

While the laptop looks more or less the same as other Swift series, the Swift Edge has received both a Red Dot 2022 award and a 2022 Good Design award. It weighs only 1.17kg and measures 12.95mm in height. Sporting an ultra-slim magnesium-aluminium chassis makes it a more portable and durable laptop. Despite that, it is also powered by AMD Ryzen 6000 series processors.

With up to 8 high-performance “Zen 3+” cores built on advanced 6 nm process technology, there are two Swift Edge models - one with an AMD Ryzen 7 6800U and the AMD Ryzen 5 6600U variant. The memory configuration is different too, as the higher variant uses 1TB Gen4 NVMe SSD and 16GB onboard LPDDR5 and while the other is paired with a 512GB Gen4 NVMe SSD and 8GB onboard LPDDR5.

The Swift Edge features a 4K OLED (3840x2400) display with 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut support, 500 nits peak brightness, and less than 0.2ms response time. Furthermore, the laptop also features a narrow bezel with a 92% screen-to body-ratio and has VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 and TÜV Rheinland Eyesafe display certifications.

On top of that, the laptop also supports the next generation connectivities such as WiFi 6E and an FHD webcam with Acer’s Temporal Noise Reduction technology. There is a plethora of ports too like HDMI 2.1, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports with fast charging capabilities, two USB Type-A ports, and an audio jack. In terms of security, it uses a Microsoft Pluton level 2 security processor.

Pre-installed with Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021 and two years warranty with a first-year International Travelers Warranty, the Acer Swift Edge with AMD Ryzen 7 and AMD Ryzen 5 retails priced at RM6,299 and RM5,299 respectively. Both variants are available on Acer eStore, Acer's official store on Shopee and Lazada starting from 8 October 2022. Stay tuned for more trending tech news at TechNave.com.
