2024 is the year that we see AI become a standard component of Windows laptops. The Acer Swift Go 14 shows that it can work even on a more affordable ultraportable.

Powered by the Intel Core Ultra processor, Acer has delivered a lightweight, compact laptop that performs reasonably well as a portable workhorse. 

It may not be the best-looking laptop in the store, but it has enough going on once you open it up that you won’t end up regretting your purchase decision.
