User Reviews for Acer Swift 3 SF315-41-R9S1 (NX.GV7SI.003) (AMD Quad Core Ryzen 5/8 GB/1 TB/Linux) Laptop

I have purchased it because I am fan of amd and I am definitely happy with the product. Now let's go to pros and cons. Pros: 1.Screen is great. 2.Battery is also good...No problem in this. 3.Sound output is also nice. 4.Build quality is solid, metallic finish makes it look cool. 5.Light weight comparatively. 6.Processor,AMD Ryzen 5 2500u is stable and you won't feel any lag in daily work. 7.Games,it can run many games.Some in high settings and others in medium.In GTA5 40 to 50 FPS it can achieve. 7.Heating is not too much...I won't say there is no heating....But very less with long hour of use. Cons: 1.SSD should be present. 2. Vega 8 graphics is fine...But still integrated...So little disappointment here. Verdict: Definitely value for money if you get it in Rs.39990 or Rs.42990. FINALLY, Acer is doing a great job. Update: I ran number of games like Counter strike GO,DIRT 4,and some others car racing games,Vega 8 handle games quite well.I don't see any framedrops while playing these games.But definitely slower than MX150. Also,It handles MATLAB like charm,even faster than some i7 intel processors. Programming is flawless.Android studio and others application like Autodesk inventor works well. Battery is working great,if someone worries about it.

pros finger print sensor metallic design good processor ips display backlit keyboard GTA 5 medium 40 to 60 fps farcry primal 30 fps slim and sleek design cons no extended ram poor display quality no laptop bag no Ethernet port & vga port integrated graphics

Best build quality with power packed features.one of the best laptop you can buy for around 50k.for 42k this is the one that will give you the best value for your money Pros Awesome build quality, hd screen, fingerprint sensor,mettalic finish,good battery Cons Ssd is absent (but then also it performs good) Slightly Heating when you play games like gta 5 (mettalic body ) Amd vega 8 performs great at this price range but still mx 150 performs slightly better. Amd is going to give you trouble when coming to the drivers. Getting heated while playing games may be becoz of metallic body Verdict If your budget is around 45k to 50k then this will be a great choice But remember this one is not for those who play high ended games I recommend this laptop for someone looking for best build quality , and a moderate gamer .never expect a performance similar to the intel version of swift 3.

Cons n1)Display - The display is a huge huge disappointment for this lapton. The colours not punchy at all. Though it's better than my previous 720p laptop but not nearly as good as my phone's (honor 8 pro) or my iPad. It's even worse than my 5 year old 23 inch Samsung LED monitor. Only thing that it has great blacks and that where it outshines my previous laptop by a mile. n2)Sound - It's just realtek audio drive. True harmony is jist a selling strategy. You cannot find any app or equalizer or anything that is called True harmony.n3)WiFi - Slower than rest of my devices (phone, iPad,old laptop). First I thought maybe the necessary drivers are not installed so I tried the ones given by acer but that didn't help. In my phone and iPad I play same YouTube video at 1440p with out any buffer. But 1080p struggles in this laptop at the same place same time. I wonder how this can be a selling point of this laptop. n4)Graphics - When playing YouTube video sometime the screen was automatically refreshing, and sometimes they are getting cracked. n5)Speaker positions - I have no idea why in 2018 they still put it below the laptop. It can't be heard if put in bed on in your lap or anywhere that blocks the speakers nProsn1) Look - For the price point it's absolutely great. n2) Build quality - It metal almost everywhere. Gorilla glass display. Definitely a hard one to break in moderate use. n3) Keyboard - Backlit keyboard are quite good. I was missing a power button outside the keyboard. n4)Volume - Though it doesn't have any spacial features like HP's b&o but it's quite loud if placed on a table. n5)Finger print - This is a very convenient way to 🔓 device. Great to see it as it is not as common in laptops as in phones. n6)Performance ( This I was saving for the last as for this is the most important part of a laptop) - It cannot get better at this price point as of now. Though ssd would be better than hdd but it increases the price by a huge amount. 1TB hdd costs equivalent to 128GB ssd. So this is all right for me. Actually this is the reason I am giving this a 4 🌟 (otherwise would have given 2 🌟)nnnAfter using for a few days I will update it(it's only been about 4 hours since I opened it).

I like AMD so, purchased. So far I used it very less time. Quality wise It is good as described. Pros: metal body, 8gb ram, 1TB HDD (WD), fingerprint unlock, backlit keyboard with seperate numeric keys(Home button missing), display clarity is good, windows 10 and our AMD RYZEN5 Quad core with vega8 sharing graphics memory. Cons: I tried asphalt8 game on this cpu getting hotter and some lag and graphics distortion in milli seconds but, I took for office purpose so not an issue for me. For normal usage remote office and all. microsoft edge browser which is very slow I saw youtube videos are slow in that. so, switched to chrome browser dont see the same issue. No CD R/W may be the reason for slimming they might have removed. Touchpad has small logic for scrolling which was not no where mentioned but, I found after few days now scrolling is easy. 10hrs battery not happens may be in idle conditions it may happens. Battery lasts for 7-8hrs depends on usage. Scren size is small as compared to other laptops 15.6" type. Overall value for money got in flipkart launch offer for 42900/-
