Finally, a 16-inch Windows laptop that I wouldn't mind putting away my MacBook Pro for


Acer's Swift 16 AI blends a slim, stylish design with a brilliant OLED display and reliable all-day battery life.

Acer's Swift 16 AI is a thin and light laptop with a gorgeous OLED display, nice full-sized keyboard, and Intel Core Ultra 7 or 9 "Lunar Lake" processor starting at $1,200: a competitive price for a device that feels more premium than you'd expect. Depending on how you use it, you can get multiple days of use on one charge, and it ranks up there with other efficient devices I've tested this year such as the Asus Zenbook A14, Microsoft's Surface Laptop, and the Dell XPS 13 with the Snapdragon X Elite chip. The "Lunar Lake" Intel Core Ultra 7 processor future-proofs this laptop with commendable performance, and its physical build feels more premium than its price point would suggest.
