The thinnest laptop

Every year, manufacturing companies present various new computer equipment. The new devices are more powerful and have better performance compared to the previous generation. Some models have a stylish and unusual design.

In pursuit of compactness, electronics manufacturers are producing increasingly lighter and thinner products. This initially affected smartphones. Some models were so thin that only a small amount could last at least a week.

For laptops, reducing the thickness has its advantages. Since the weight of the device becomes significantly less, carrying a laptop is much easier.

Acer's thinnest laptop

At an exhibition held in Las Vegas, Acer presented a model of a compact and stylish Swift 7 laptop, which is currently considered the thinnest laptop in the world. The thickness of the product is less than one centimeter.

It must be taken into account that the advantages of this model are, first of all, design and portability.

The laptop body is made of aluminum and its thickness is only 8.98 mm. The screen diagonal is 14 inches. The IPS matrix has a resolution of 1920×1080 Full HD. Despite its small size, the model has good hardware: processor - Intel Core i7, RAM - 8Gb, solid-state hard drive SSD with a capacity of 256Gb.

The touchpad and display of Sfift 7 are protected by special Corning Glass NBT glass. There is a standard fingerprint sensor.

Despite the fairly good “filling”, the model cannot boast of high performance and power. This is a kind of “payback” for compactness. The laptop is not suitable for working with “heavy” programs, but it can easily cope with typing, watching videos, surfing the World Wide Web and other simple processes.

Acer Sfift 7 is suitable for people who spend a lot of time outside the office and who need to be constantly in touch, for example, journalists, realtors or advertising agents. Students and businessmen will like it.

In addition to performance, the company had to sacrifice USB connectors. There are only three sockets on the body of the product: audio and a Type-C pair. The kit includes the necessary adapters.

Attention! In addition to its compactness, the laptop boasts a long battery life - the battery charge lasts for 6 hours of continuous use.

A significant drawback of this model is the keyboard. Despite the fact that it is convenient, the lack of backlight spoils the impression. This is explained by the fact that the thin body of the device does not allow the installation of LEDs.

Other thin laptop models

Ultrathin laptops do not offer good performance and power. However, the price of such devices is quite high. Despite this, thin laptop models are in great demand.

Reference! Apple introduced the fashion for ultra-thin laptops by introducing its first model of a compact 12-inch laptop with a thickness of 1.32 cm.

In addition to Acer, some other brands produce thin laptops:

1. APPLE MacBook Pro 13 2018. This is the newest ultra-thin laptop model from the Apple manufacturer.Its main feature is a high-quality 13-inch display with a resolution of 2560x160. In terms of its characteristics, this laptop is not inferior to some gaming devices: processor - Intel Core i5, RAM - 8Gb, solid-state hard drive with a capacity of 256Gb. The laptop looks very stylish and laconic. Has a signature “Apple” design. A significant disadvantage of the product is its inflated cost - the price can reach up to 300,000 rubles.
2. Lenovo YOGA. The body is made of metal, so the laptop is suitable for people who are not very neat. The laptop is simple, reliable, and equipped with a high-capacity battery—the battery life is 9 hours. Inside there are: a Core i5 processor, a 259Gb solid-state hard drive, and 16Gb of RAM. The disadvantages include the dim display.
3. XIAOMI MI Notebook Air. It features a stylish design and compact size. The technical characteristics are not inferior to competitors: Core i5 processor, graphics adapter - GeForce 150, RAM - 8Gb, SSD - 256Gb. The battery capacity is enough for almost 10 hours of battery life. The model is an excellent option for people who spend a lot of time on business trips.
4. Asus Zenbook UX331. The design of the laptop is similar to APPLE products. The body is made of metal. Due to the ribbed surface of the top cover, fingerprints remain on the product. The laptop is a transformer, that is, its screen is rotatable. The product processor is 4-core i5, SDD 256Gb, RAM 8Gb.

Thin laptops are a good choice for study, work or leisure. Thanks to their light weight and compact size, they are highly mobile.At the same time, the devices are equipped in accordance with the latest trends in computer technology - top-end processors and a solid-state hard drive. The thin body forces designers to be more careful in developing the product. Therefore, such models are stronger than conventional laptops. In addition, manufacturers are gradually reducing the cost of laptops, making them more affordable and popular.
