About the Acer Swift 5
The Acer Swift 5 is a slim laptop with memory soldered to the board, part of Acer's thin-and-light range.
Its memory is soldered to the board, so it can’t be upgraded after purchase, but the SSD can be replaced. Parts are still widely available, either new or as tested replacements.

Acer Swift 5 questions
Can you get my files off a Acer Swift 5 that won’t turn on?
Usually, yes. The Acer Swift 5 has a removable drive, so we can often read it directly even if the rest of the laptop is dead. If the drive itself has failed, we recover your files from a copy.
How long does a Acer Swift 5 repair take?
Screen, keyboard and battery repairs are often done the same day when the part is in stock. Board repairs take a few days, and we give you a timescale with the quote.
