The Acer Switch 7 is built for speed and power. It comes equipped with the powerful Nvidia GeForce MX150 graphics card along with an 8th-generation Intel Core i7 processor. It runs on the Windows 10 operating system and also comes with an optical under glass fingerprint reader that works with Windows Hello for added security.
