Windows Central's take

Considering the advances of AI in 2023, it's no surprise that major tech companies are putting their efforts into manufacturing laptops and desktops that can keep up with the latest AI needs on both consumer and business levels. The new Acer Swift Go 14 line looks very impressive and these laptops should work beautifully for students, in the office, or even for personal use. 

Acer itself is a good company, which I have had the pleasure of testing in the past. Earlier this year, I did our Acer Swift X 16 OLED review and came away impressed by the laptop's gorgeous display and solid performance, so I expect to see something similar with this new line of Swift Go 14s.
