Great specced computer! Amazing internals, ok build quality

Very good and well worth the price. Provides all as promised.

Nothing to Dislike very nice work's Great just what I needed.

I love acer products so for me it was a no brainer to buy this laptop to get started into PC gaming. It was a very good price for what it is and what it offers. Best deal you will find.

After my MSI GS63VR died on me while travelling, I was in urgent need of a decent gaming laptop . Narrowed it down instore to the Acer Nitro 5 or the Asus Tuf A15. Both have 144hz displays ,Nvidia 3050TI dedicated GPU's and 512GB SSD storage. I went with the Nitro 5 for the following reasons :- 1. It comes with 16GB of RAM vs the 8GB on the Asus. Admittedly it is DDR4 3200 Mhz vs the DDR5 4800 Mhz on the Asus, but what I use the laptop for doesn't really require that faster RAM speed. 2. The price. At $849 vs the Asus at $879 (which I would have had to purchase another 8GB of RAM for to benefit from dual channel), the Acer was a better bang for my buck. 3. The keyboard. To me it was better than the Asus. My one complaint is the battery life. Don't expect more than 2 hrs from it. Which isnt a major issue since I rarely use it unplugged.

Very nice and very fast. I would recommend this computer to anyone

Gifted this laptop to my nephew and so far so good.

Quality of graphics card cannot keep up with current games

It’s not the fastest nor does it have a top tier video card but for the price it plays all the games I want it to and more on high settings. The backlit keyboard is a definite plus.

So far have had zero issues. The labtop booted right up and worked great for everytask that I have thrown at it. Mainly use it for gaming when I'm working out of town.

Ran applications well. Not bad as far as gaming. Battery life was really poor. If you had this thing off of thw hook on optimum settings for more than an hour you were getting to the 27% batter mark at a constant.

Bought this for my daughter and she love’s it.has not once crashed on her doing her gaming . It does so much more and it’s really fast on everything. I would recommend this one

Lasted 3 years have been thru two of the exact same laptops they are excellent just make sure you keep it in a cool environment if your gaming or it will shut down and never turn back on

Not a bad laptop, but having problems with the sound. Had to call tech support and reinstall the driver. That worked for about a month. Can only use a headset now.

Going to school for computer science and needed a computer that would allow me to do all the things. This one hasn’t let me down thus far! Good computer!

Purchased this computer about a month ago! My first gaming pc and it does wonders! I was expecting just a decent computer for starters and I love it!

For an affordable laptop that really packs a punch, look no further than the Acer Nitro 5. Whether it's for work or for play, the Nitro 5 stands out as your go-to machine to keep you productive and entertained. Aside from the red corners, the black shell isn't much to look at, but the overall build is nice and sturdy. It has a glossy finish, so unfortunately I already see lots of fingerprints gathering throughout the top lid. On the underside, four rubber grips give the machine a slight lift, to the benefit of the unit's dual fans. It's not the most portable of laptops, so be prepared to set up shop somewhere whenever you use it. Battery life is average, as gaming for long periods of time with optimal settings will really bleed it dry very quickly. The keys have a soft, rubber feel to them, and some of the button positions need some familiarization, but overall it's a great layout that utilizes its space very well. Performance is top notch. With 16GB of RAM out of the box, the Nitro 5 can handle almost anything you throw at it. The processor itself isn't the most powerful, but multitasking between gaming, streaming, and working is seamless. Most games should run very smoothly with the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, and on this full HD screen, they look bright and beautiful as well. One thing I think worth noting is the utilization of NitroSense on this machine, allowing you to monitor and adjust your CPU temperatures, fan speeds, and power, as well as letting you customize your keyboard lighting effects among other things. The Nitro 5 runs games well and reliably; it's really that simple. Overall, the Acer Nitro 5 stands out for its reliability, power, and great performance. Highly recommended for serious and casual gamers alike.

Son is gaming heaven. He just keeps saying how smooth is it.

Great laptop for the price range to do everyday pc tasks and gaming. I use to play world of warcraft and it meets my basic gaming needs.
