Heads up that the "Antimicrobial Corning Gorilla Glass" printed on the top left of the screen is permanent, not a sticker.
Otherwise this was a decent deal for (claimed) 15h battery life at 2.31lb with 100% sRGB and 340nits screen

Yeah apparently Acer decided to cash in on an ad from Corning.
I heard about it from some reviews but you can actually see it if you zoom in on the picture, there's no outline around the text where a sticker would be

Hot girl (at the library, coffee shop, etc...):
That's not Antimicrobial Corning Gorilla Glass is it? So, wanna go out?
or
Is that Antimicrobial Corning Gorilla Glass? Or are you just happy to see me?

(Probably what Acer was thinking when they took the check...)

This checks every box except last time it was posted, there was a really bad review. Of course it was just one person.

https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=153873094&postcount=9

Edit: I just realized the link that post provided was from the Acer Spin 5, not the Swift 5.

However on Amazon, the reviews for the Swift 5 also has its shares on QC issues:

But then pretty much all laptops do these days.

yes, but it is not on the visible part of the screen, so it doesn't affect actual use. I agree a little tacky but not a dealbreaker.

It looks annoying, that's a show stopper for me. The eye naturally tries to read text so that would be distracting.

Really want to like this deal, have had good luck with Acer and prefer their page up/down key setup vs others where you have to fold Fn down to use page up/down. Trying to love the HO setup where the page up/down are along the very right side of the keyboard in a vertical line but not digging it. Just not sure about buying from BH Photo with their crappy return policy.
