    The Acer Nitro gaming notebook is fantastic! It's perfect for both my 10-year-old daughter's gaming and my coding and film work. It's powerful, sleek, and has a high-resolution display. The keyboard is comfortable, and it's durable enough for an active child. It's versatile, allowing us to switch effortlessly between gaming and coding modes. The battery life is great, and it has excellent connectivity options. Overall, it's a reliable and adaptable companion for entertainment and productivity. Highly recommended!

    Good to start with a videogame of low/med tier. Or if you dont have too much money and want to start with something to feel how is gonna be when you made it. Speed: stable. Graphics: remarkable. You will be suprised. Dont misunderstanding this computer, Are more better than they show and than you think. I probe it as myself and i am very happy with my buy. In the future i wanna buy more items from best buy and see where is the best high technologies they have. For now i need to stil fighting and reach that goal

    Solid Notebook for the Price

    At the price point, it would've been better with a 3060 graphics card instead of the 3050 it came with. Solid notebook for the price, though. I like that the style is kind of subdued, and not just a loud gaming laptop. Four zone LED's on keys is very cool. Would've preferred more space for the 10-keys instead of having a nitrosense button there.

    My Teen says it is good. The problem was with getting the Card to process. Credit company said it was good.. but Best Buy could not process my new card. We went there twice and it was not working. Once again...the credit company said I was good but Best could not process my purchase, so I bought it my self since the discount expired on the same day. No 10% cash back processed.

    Not a bad starter laptop to run some applications. Some games run fluid for 60fps on high settings. Some games are a bit more physically demanding and require more oomph to run it. Also, a fantastic laptop (excluding space) for anything office work despite how little ram it has.

    I have had this gaming laptop for about a week now, and it has been working great! This is my first pc, so i have nothing to compare it to, but everything has been smooth and fast so far. I have even done some VR with my oculus quest 2 using Oculus Link and everything has ran well for the most part! Would recommend for the price.

    Just add another 8gb 3200 RAM stick and you are set buddy. Be aware that this laptop is not without issues however; I reinstalled Windows and updated all drivers still the volume shortcuts are buggy. Nice thick bottom.
