Great product on a budget. I bought this after returning an MSI with an RTX 3060. Despite having a better GPU, the MSI was wanting in terms of processing and memory RAM. This surely will not happen with this Nitro. A 12-core processor is the best one you can find in this price range. Worth it. It runs a lot of games smoothly. I am quite happy with the exchange I have made.
Although, its cover could be a little more resistant. It is plastic but I would love steel instead. Maybe next time.

Watch for battery + pay extra for CPU

Good computer, fast, good looking. The only issue is the battery and the CPU.
Yes, it is a gaming computer, but even setting everything to the minimum (turning off the fancy keyboard lights, and turning off the GPU fans) is not enough.
For the CPU, it's better to upgrade to the i7.

A “Cool” Laptop

I use the term cool loosely, as it does get extremely hot. Besides that and the battery life being too short, I have no complaints. It’s able to run most games at a pretty high level. Oh and the keyboard is pretty cool.

If you just need a laptop for gaming, then this is perfect. I run destiny 2 for hours and it never gets hot enough to make me worried of overheating.

I bought this gaming laptop for my son to game on. He absolutely loves it, very easy to use for him with plenty of features and speed. This was very reasonably priced and provides a great value for the pricepoint.

I really like the size of the screen and the graphic quality. It runs smooth for extended periods of time, does every task needed, and the customization on yhe keyboard is really neat. The only downfall is the location of the charge port being on the very back.

This computer is reliable fast and the esthetic is nice as well. A little pricey but that is to be expected for the memory. I would also like to add that it is not lightweight, it is very heavy so, carrying it around would not be a pleasant experience. Overall it is a very nice computer.

This laptop is a nice performing machine for this price segment. Its fast and runs games at 1080p well. Not too heavy, but build quality feels nice. Just know what you are getting, 1080p and a 3050ti laptop GPU. Don't expect crazy performance given that.

Product is as advertised, runs games well on performance mode, and has 10x my productivity. Battery life is the only thing preventing this from being 5 stars. 9 hours could be better in my opinion.

amazing little laptop that i've been able to enjoy games such as Elden Ring, Baldur's Gate 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 on High/Ultra settings while still being able to stream without any performance issues. definitely recommend if you're on a budget, it's been working great since i got it in Dec 2022 and it is currently Aug 2024

My wife was wanting a fast but stable laptop that could play sims with no hassle. The nitro Acer has been great so far. Only complaint would be battery life is horrible if not plugged in. But over all my wife is very happy with the speed and the nice keyboard colors.

I absolutely love this gaming computer. Especially for the price you’re getting it! I will say you have to have it plugged in to use it. Its battery life without it is not great. You’ll know it’s not plugged in if your game is lagging like crazy lol
