The Acer Swift 5 was announced during the next@Acer 2019 global press conference recently, and the 14″ notebook—which Acer once touted as the world’s lightest 14″ laptop—has now been launched in Malaysia.
Here’s everything you need know.
The Acer Swift 5 is now available at all Acer Concept Stores and Acer Official Online Stores, as well as authorised retailers now for a starting price of RM3,699. There are 4 variants available in Malaysia, with options of either 8GB (16GB for range-topping variant) of onboard LPDDR4 memory. Meanwhile, graphics options include Intel UHD Graphics (SF514-54T-50GD/SF512-54T-52AS), Nvidia MX250 (SF514-54GT-512N), and Intel Iris Plus Graphics (SF514-54T-70AA) for the top-end variant.
All 4 variants come with a 512GB PCIe SSD for storage, along with Windows 10 Home. There are 2 colour options: Moonstone White and Charcoal Blue.
The various configurations, along with relevant pricing, is as follows:
SF514-54T-50GD (Intel Core i5-1035G1) – RM3,699
SF512-54T-52AS (Intel Core i5-1035G1) – RM3,699
SF514-54GT-512N (Intel Core i5-1035G1) – RM3,999

The first 5 units of any model purchased at any of the above stores will receive a Mi True Wireless Earbud Basic, while purchasers of models worth between RM3,000 to RM5,299 will be entitled to a Predator waterproof bag, a Predator Cestus 310 gaming mouse, or Acer E300 true harmony earphones (these free gifts can be redeemed here).
The new Acer Swift 5 runs on the latest 10th Gen Intel Core processors, and comes packed with up to Nvidia GeForce MX250 graphics. At just 990 grams, the Swift 5 has a thickness of 14.95mm—this weight is made possible by a combination of magnesium-lithium and magnesium-aluminium alloys for greater weight reduction.
For its display, the Swift 5 has a 14″ Full HD IPS touch-screen that boasts a screen-to-body ratio of 86.4%, along with narrow bezels measuring at just 3.97mm. Configurations go up to the Intel Core i7-1065G7 (U-Series) and a maximum of 512GB PCIe Gen 3×4 SSD storage.
Sustaining the device is a battery that, according to Acer, gets you up to 12.5 hours on a single charge. Fast charge is supported, and 30 minutes of charging will get you 4.5 hours of usage, according to the manufacturer.
You’re also looking at dual-band WiFi 6 (802.11ax) and Thunderbolt 3 via USB-C. Addressing accessibility and security in one go, the Swift 5 also supports Windows Hello with a built-in fingerprint scanner.
