Portable, powerful and with the build of a style-driven laptop, the Acer Swift X 14 has a lot to offer. And it doesn't cost quite as much as some of these "do everything" models. Some of the finer points aren't best-in-class, and it's not the best way for gamers to spend $/£1500, but that was never the idea here.
