Back in April, HP launched the Spectre 13 which was the world’s thinnest laptop and a thickness of only 10.4mm. Today, Acer revealed its new laptop: the Swift 7.  And guess what? It’s thinner than the HP Spectre 13 — the device is only 9.98mm thick.

In terms of the design of the device, Acer has done a great job — the device weighs just 2.48 pounds (that’s around 1.12kg), and comes in a black-and-gold dual tone design. For the display, Acer has included a 13.3-inch Full HD IPS 2 display, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass. As for the processors, the Swift will be powered by Intel’s latest Kaby Lake processors — to be specific, Acer will be selling the Swift 7 with the Core i5 processors. As for the internal storage, you can get 256GB SSD. For the RAM, you can get the Swift 7 with up to 8GB of RAM which is decent enough for a laptop like this.

According to Acer, the Swift 7 will offer up to 9 hours of battery life. Lastly, the device comes with two USB 3.1 Type-C ports, which will allow you to charge the device and connect to an external display. It’ll hit the U.S. and Europe in October for $999. The company will also launch the Swift 7 in Europe, the Middle East and Africa in October where prices will start at €1,299.
