On the other hand, the Acer Swift 3 has a larger 14-inch display, but it comes in a more traditional 16:9 aspect ratio. No matter your use case, this is a great display for this price point. It’s a Quad HD+ (2560 x 1600) display, so it’s super sharp, plus it gets up to 400 nits of brightness, it supports True Tone, and P3 Wide Color. With a taller screen, you get more space for text on a document, more rows in an Excel spreadsheet, or, perhaps most importantly, more space for UI elements in complex apps like video production software.Īdditionally, the MacBook Air comes in a single configuration, but it’s a configuration that’s great for basically everyone. Taller screens like that are great for productivity because the added vertical space results in a larger surface area overall. Apple’s laptop comes with a 13.3-inch display, but it has a 16:10 aspect ratio, which is taller than a traditional laptop display – like what’s on the Acer Swift 3.
