Acer Swift SF114-32-P6M2 (NX.GXHEF.003) 14" Laptop
  • The silver N5000 along with the 4GB RAM can handle anything I throw at it such as web browsing, photo editing, office, programming.
  • I find 4GB of RAM is enough for my use. It's great for streaming video, writing email and word processing.
  • 4GB of RAM is a bit low, and it is just single channel.
  • The SD slot let’s the card stick out where it is vulnerable to breaking.
  • RAM unfortunately is not extendable, so getting rid of Windows 10 is a must.
