Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the Nitro 5's performance, especially its speed and gaming capabilities, and many find it offers good value for the price. However, customers are negative about the battery life and some report issues with fan noise and heat generation during intensive use. The relatively small storage capacity is another common concern. While some appreciate the keyboard, others find the laptop to be somewhat heavy.

    A little room for improvement on fit and finish stuff, but for the price you can't beat it! It works better than expected and I would gladly buy again!

    So I am an Apple person and was looking to get an Apple laptop for my son but it was out of my price range. After all the research and even talking to the customer service a Best Buy in Stafford We settled on this laptop. I have to say my son loves it, it works great for school, no problems and great for games. I am extremely impressed on the product on the quality on everything

    I really like this laptop. I did a lot of research into getting exactly what I needed. This laptop is for 90% work and 10% play. The battery life is excellent, as long as you aren't using the GTX 1650. I make sure to not have any apps auto start that use the discreet graphics. The SSD could be larger, but adding a 1tb nvme in the extra slot or a 2.5" sata drive for extra storage are great options. The keyboard could be better, but I feel it does the job ok. I would give this laptop 5 stars, but I feel acer could go to a better keyboard and screen and still stay in the same price range.

    Very good for gaming and work. Only draw back is the speakers can be a little quiet compared to my old Acer but put headphones in and it fixes it

    Fast, powerful, lightweight! I do not use it for gaming, just basic internet searches, work needs, and minor photoshop needs.
