Customer Ratings & Reviews

Replying to on buyer that said its a nice gaming laptop, but its not a mac. Well first macs are garbage for gaming and they are not androind compatible, they are basically studdy buddies and work laptops. This a hreat start for beginner gaming laptop. Person doesn need a $3000 from start.

"Absolutely thrilled with my new gaming PC! The performance is top-notch, handling every game I throw at it effortlessly. The build quality is fantastic. The customer service was exceptional, guiding me through customization options. A solid investment for any gaming enthusiast!"

I have owned one of these laptops before and it got heat damage due to not propping it up. This is a great laptop that has a really good graphics card that can handle games and support a second display. The fans keep it really cool just be sure to get a laptop stand or prop it up so the laptop can breathe. Just a tip. The ram is only 8gs and can be upgraded. I would buy this again

I was in need of a new gaming laptop and I decided to pick this up during a Best Buy sale. It feels solidly built and the keyboard is comfortable to type on. It’s run every game I’ve thrown at it without any issues. I added a 2nd m.2 drive for more storage, which was easy to do. It’s also easy to add more RAM if you need to. The only negative I’ve found is the touchpad isn’t the easiest to use, but that’s not unusual for Windows laptops. If you’re a gamer you’re going to use an external mouse anyway. I unfortunately can’t speak on the battery as I only use it plugged in.

What i liked about the computer was the quality and the graphics. My experience with the computer was great nothing was wrong with it besides the gb but that was it, so over all the computer was perfect.

This is a substantial unit. Not light by an means and with a decent, 15" screen. It really could be a main computer. My first initial thought, was it wasn't touch screen. I know on gaming laptops its not a thing, but for someone who has gotten used to a touchscreen this was a drawback. I kept trying tp 'short cut' using the screen. The screen was bright and impressive, and no color bleed. It has a 144 refresh rate and it showed. Response was excellent and keyboard and touchpad feel were excellent. The red backlit keyboard was nice but after awhile the red was distracting, if not uncomfortable to my eyes. I should point out I like the color red, but in this situation, it wasn't ideal. Sound was good but I had expect more. It seemed lacking in bass and for such a large laptop, I guess I expected better, but it wasn't bad! I did not see any USC C ports which was missed by me. There is one of the back, but the label makes me think its for charging- will have to investigate further, but that was only 1! It does have 3 of the regular USB ports. Battery life was ok. After a few games and a video (maybe 3 hrs- it was at 10%) All in all, not a bad machine. The screen really shines, but its not for carrying around, and as a gaming machine, it passes.

This laptop isn't slow by any means, but one also shouldn't expect any real power to play modern games at higher settings. That said, the screen - with it's pretty decent refresh rate - also only "Full HD" (1920x1080), so it's not made to game at 4K anyway. But what you do get is a gaming laptop with plenty of full-sized ports, a keyboard that feels better playing games on it than simple regular typing, and some useful (if not basic) system control through the NitroSense app. The overall laptop is a little clunky, to me. One, the power supply is your usual large brick; but second, the laptop, itself, feels fairly heavy and thick. Like most gaming laptops of this sort, it's not really geared for carrying around place to place. There is one major area that I give Acer credit for here: Expandability. Aside from its basic specs, there is room to add another NVMe drive AND a 2.5 SSD - and Acer even includes the drive cable and extra screws to install it. The memory sticks are also accessible and the entire chassis is easy to remove to get to the components. So yes, it can play modern games - just don't expect high end. But the more classic stuff? No problem at all. Luckily, I tend to play those types of games more anyway.

Arrive in time and work very will as i ecpected thank you acer and bust buy ❤️

Very good for fortnite! Runs 200 fps! Great for school and gaming love it! I use it everyday.

Nice starter gaming computer for our son. Easy set up and great graphics.

This laptop runs all the games i have tried, its really fast, it is a really good gaming laptop

The laptop was so smooth and quick i dont have a single distaste for it

Great laptop... no complain, super fast, highly recommend !

The machine worked fine for the first 12 months I had it. Ran every game I played just fine. Until it shorted out, just one month after my warranty expired. Not sure what caused it to short out, it was running fine one moment, and then nothing. Customer service wouldn't honor the warranty since it was 1 month past the 1 year warranty period, which was frustrating. Acer will do out of warranty repairs, but for this model, there is a $700.00 up front repair cost, so it is cheaper to buy a new one. Very frustrating customer sercice experience. Unhappy customer here.

as described perfect gaming laptop great size and color light up keyboard is amazing!

its really incredible becaise its good for productivity and gaming. And its not too expensive for what your getting. Its really good overall in all catagories and you could always upgrade the storage and ram.

I love this laptop as a starter it can run most games at high settings for graphics with still hanging onto 85 to 120 fps which is great for this laptop and it never overheats

Great value for gaming laptop, battery life is good
