Acer has been at the 2-in-1 laptop game for a long time and while its Switch series hasn’t always impressed with some clunky and bulky systems, the Acer Switch 12 S is simply its best convertible notebook ever. The 12.5-inch laptop is Acer’s thinnest hybrid yet packing a Core M processor and a 4K screen.
Acer is positioning the Switch 12 S as a premium home and work machine and its fully metal body certainly backs the claims. The machine is elegant, thin and the build quality is solid though out.
The screen measures an impressive 0.31-inches (7.85mm) thin considering the processor, battery and all the other components tucked behind the display. As just a tablet it also doesn’t weigh too much either at 1.76 pounds (0.8kg). With an equally thin, magnetic keyboard dock attached the Switch 12 weighs 3.09 pounds (1.4kg).
Overall, you’re looking at a pretty light device that weighs less than the 3.14 pound (1.43kg) Asus Transformer Book T300 Chi but not less than a 2.62-pound (1.18kg) Surface 3 with its keyboard cover. However, the 12.5-inch tablet-hybrid is still thicker than both Asus and Microsoft’s competing devices.
