ā€œNew, innovative, 2-in-1 PC designs continue to drive category growth,ā€ said Chris Walker, Vice President, Client Computing Group at Intel Corporation. ā€œThe 2-in-1ā€™s draw is its versatility, but we know people who own one also want a full PC experience. With options of 7th Generation Intel Core, Intel Pentium or Intel Celeron processors inside, the Acer Switch 5 and Acer Switch 3 devices offer a complete package of versatility, long battery life and true PC performance across a range of price points.ā€

The battery life for the Acer Switch 5 is 10.5 hours. The Switch 5 supports a 256GB or 512GB PCIe SSD and up to 8GB of LPDDR3 SDRAM. It is thin and light, measuring just 292 (W) x 201.8 (D) x 12 (H) mm (11.5 x 7.94 x 0.47 inches) and weighing 1.27 kg (2.8 pounds) when the tablet and keyboard are connected.
