I love everything about this laptop. The nitrosense is so helpful to switch fan speeds, and man those fan work! Also, THIS WORKS FOR PCVR GAMING!!! It can get hot during those gamimg sessions but the nitrosense always automatically turns thw fans higher and it fr helps. The led colored keyboard is one of my favorite features. I also use this to work from home and it can handle multiple tabs and apps opened and video calls at same time. Literally amazing laptop and also I really like how you have to push the charger into the plug to secure it more so it isnt easily ripped out. Battery life is fantastic for me.

Comes ready for east upgrades, runs games like Valorant at 60-120 fps with ease right out of the box. Tons of space for (potential) storage after a few minor add ons. I installed a 2.5” Samsung SSD (1TB), a second M.2 PCle NVMe SSD (1TB), and a second 8gb stick of ram. All of which was super easy, just plug-and-play stuff. Only need a screwdriver. Mine came with one 8GB stick of ddr4 ram (3.2GHz!). Also included the ribbon to connect an additional 2.5” SSD, making the process no frills and easy. Only disappointing thing is that, for the money ($779), it would’ve been nice if it came with a bit more storage or two sticks of ram out of the box, since I ended up paying around $300 for all the components to upgrade it. The LED screen does feel a bit dated, but it gets the job done. Ultimately, I’m super happy with this laptops performance overall and can’t complain since they’re now out of stock and would’ve rather had it sooner for $100 more than waiting and saving the $100.

Customers are pleased with the Nitro 5's performance, especially considering its price, and many appreciate its suitability for gaming and ease of upgrading RAM and storage. However, some users have noted that the battery life could be improved, and the fan noise can be excessive at times. The keyboard's backlighting is a frequently praised feature.
