Acer Swift 7 is Now The Thinnest Laptop Ever : Price Starts at $999 USD

In line with the upcoming 40th anniversary of Acer Inc., the legendary Taiwanese electronics company unveiled a number of exciting new products at this year's IFA gadget expo currently happening in Berlin, Germany.

And one of their new devices that really got tech bloggers talking is the Acer Swift 7, which has just become the slimmest or thinnest laptop in the world today.

Look at that! Thumbs up, Acer! Amazing.

Measuring just 9.98 millimeters (or a little less than a centimeter) at its thickest point, this svelte ultrabook was able to easily snatch the title away from HP Spectre that has a thickness of 10.4 millimeters.

Apart from being extremely slim, Acer Swift 7 is also very light -- weighing only 1.1 kilograms, making it perfect for road warriors or those who often fly to other countries for both work and play.

Apart from being very portable, another thing that makes Acer Swift 7 perfect for those who are always on the go is its long battery life. It delivers up to 9 hours of uptime on a full charge!
