Acer's Latest Laptop Lineup Takes Center Stage

At the Computex 2025 show in Taiwan, Acer revealed an impressive lineup of laptops, including the highly anticipated Swift Edge 14 AI. Weighing in at half a pound lighter than the MacBook Air, this model is set to shake up the market. Alongside it, the Predator Triton 14 AI offers a compelling mix for gamers and content creators alike.

A Powerful Range of New Models

Acer's offerings span various categories, from the lightweight Swifts to the gaming-focused Predator and Nitro lines. While details on U.S. pricing remain under wraps, eager customers can anticipate updates as the release draws nearer, especially with the tariff situation affecting availability.

The Swift Edge 14 AI: Sleek and Sophisticated

The Swift Edge 14 AI is particularly noteworthy, boasting a 14-inch display featuring Intel’s cutting-edge Lunar Lake chip options and a stunning 2880 x 1800 OLED screen. With a maximum configuration of 32GB RAM and a 1TB SSD, it balances power and portability impeccably. Weighing just under 2.2 pounds and measuring between 0.37 and 0.65 inches thick, it easily outshines the 2.7-pound MacBook Air in both design and specs. The Swift Edge also includes a versatile selection of ports, ensuring it meets modern connectivity needs—all starting at an estimated €1,599 ($1,800) in Europe.

Gaming with Predator Triton 14 AI

The Predator Triton 14 AI aims to redefine gaming laptops with its lightweight design. At about 3.5 pounds and only 0.68 inches thick, it stands out among bulkier competitors. Featuring a 14.5-inch, 2880 x 1800 OLED display capable of 120Hz refresh rates, it’s perfect for both gaming and creative tasks. Powered by an Intel Arrow Lake Core Ultra 9 processor and up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 GPU, this machine promises serious performance, though it comes with a heftier price tag starting at €2,999 ($3,350).

More Models on the Horizon

Acer is not stopping at the Swift Edge and Predator Triton. Upcoming models include the Aspire 14 AI and 16 AI, featuring configurable chip options, and cheaper Swift Go AI variants. The Predator Helios Neo 14 offers a budget-friendly entry into Acer’s flagship gaming line.

Revolutionary Monitors to Match

On the display front, Acer is stepping up with two 27-inch QD-OLED monitors. The flagship Predator X27 X will deliver a jaw-dropping 240Hz at 4K, while the X27U F5 boasts an astonishing 500Hz at 2560 x 1440. Expected prices are €1,099 (~$1,230) and €899 (~$1,000), respectively. Additional options include lower-cost Nitro monitors and the high-resolution 6K ProCreator PE320QXT.
