Powerful and light
Bought this laptop as a Christmas present to myself. Keyboard, battery life, 1080p screen and 10th gen quad core processor are all excellent. The light weight also makes it so easy to carry around or just watch movies on the bed at night. The screen aspect ratio of 16:9 is also handy for watching video. Getting a solid 10 hours of usage per charge. The only negative in my view is that the bottom of the laptop has tiny vents for airflow, and sitting on bed these can sometimes get covered. Despite this have not had any issues with heat however, so not a deal breaker.

Excellent portable laptop
I've had this for about a week and I'm pleasantly impressed with it. It's lightweight, attractive and seems to be powerful enough to handle a range of multi-tasking activities without any signs of slow down.
USB-C and thunderbolt 3 connectivity is great, touch screen works a treat and battery life seems quite good (averaging about 9 hours use with heavy web browsing and office use). The webcam seems pretty good however the microphone was a little soft and low for my liking and the speakers were good for personal use, just don't expect them to fill the room.
The only drawbacks I've come across so far is the lack of upgradability of RAM which is soldered to the motherboard, and that it does tend to show fingerprints on the outside of the case after a good day of use (however, these come straight off with a quick wipe).
All in all, I'm pretty happy with this purchase and knowing that I can upgrade the hard drive at a later date is a big plus too.

Worst laptop I ever had
I bought my Acer swift i5 last year and it has been 6 months. It worked fine for the first few months and proved to be a great option for anyone that is studying or working due to its lightweight and compactness to carry around. However, problems started to arise since 2 months ago, making it the 4th month since I start using it. Constantly get overheat from me watching videos or opening online meeting applications. This overheat leads to this laptop shutting down itself, something that happens no less than 10 times a day. Never have I heard about a laptop shutting down itself due to overheating. The most recent issue is the battery of the laptop is dead and cannot be charged, potentially due to the overheating again. Overall a bad product and I do not recommend it.

Handy laptop
I bought this a few weeks ago and so far has been a handy laptop and good value. Only negative is more about the software constantly trying to back up to the cloud.

Product flimsy
Only used this product for just over a month before the screen broke “due to opening it” was the words used by Acer and therefore our fault. This product is flimsy and not fit for purpose if you need to use it as a laptop and open the screen more then a dozen times.
