We quite like how the Acer blue light shield technology filters out blue light that tires the eyes so you can work comfortably longer.

The touchpad is precise with a faster response compared to similarly priced items that will enable an even more efficient operation. The palm rests and the space between the keyboard are also made of metal and we’d like it. On the right side under the keyboard, you’ll find a fingerprint scanner which clearly indicates that the level of security offered by Swift 3 is increased and that it can be used for business purposes. Of course, Windows hello features are supported both by the fingerprint scanner and by the webcam.
