Customers are saying

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.

    Decent starter gaming laptop. Mouse pad is completely wonky and not really functional with lots posts online about the problem but no real way of fixing it. Battery doesn’t last like it should. Speed and graphics are nice and no problems with gaming as of yet.

    The computer is good it was on sale when I bought it. The problem is that when you first get it depending on what game you play it will run downtime battery really quickly such as I charged it to 100 percent played a FPS game for like 1 hour and it went from 100 to 62 percent. But other then that it’s good really heavy as expected

    Purchased this laptop as a Christmas gift to my son. I felt it was a reasonably priced laptop for a gaming laptop. My son said it was decent for the price, but the graphics could be better. I'm not that tech savvy but he did state for a beginner it's a decent laptop

    This was purchased for 11 year old boy who loves gaming. He hauls it back and forth with him since he travels a good bit. He has had no issues with it and it's holding up well so far. The picture is clear. He hasn't complained with any lagging or problems doing whatever he has wanted to do on it.

    I bought this for my son and after upgrading the ram to 16gb, he is thoroughly enjoying playing games on it.Only reasons i'm not giving it 5 stars is because of the lack of ssd space and he doesn't like the placement of the mouse pad.
