Customers are pleased with the Nitro 5's performance, especially considering its price, and many appreciate its suitability for gaming and ease of upgrading RAM and storage. However, some users have noted that the battery life could be improved, and the fan noise can be excessive at times. The keyboard's backlighting is a frequently praised feature.

I love this computer but the fan is so loud sounds like rednecks built it out of chainsaws and duct tape…It emits a terrifying shriek of grinding metal that upsets elderly people and small animals for miles around.

Bought this computer for my son. When we got it, it would not turn on. Seemed to be an issue with Acer. Sent the computer in and received new/repaired laptop with in 10 days. Now that it turns on, it works great. My 23 year old son uses it for everyday use and gaming.

One of the best laptops I’ve ever had! Solid speed and functionality, easily upgraded RAM and hard drives/solid state drives. All around power house good for gaming, streaming and all around! I dropped the laptop and cracked the plastic on the back and it still works and functions as if it was new! Very durable!

Great little gaming computer but… So I bought this for my kids for Christmas 2021. And when they went to go play there games they couldn’t it keep saying not enough Ram. So I went to Best Buy and picked up 2 sticks of 8 GB ram, one for each of the laptops. And boom up and running like you wouldn’t believe. Still needs a bigger hard drive. Which we also got for one of them. SUPER NICE that they give you the adapter piece for the hard drive.

I got this on promotion for $629. It’s a great budget gaming laptop, however with that being said, the graphics card might be a little dated. It still runs games good, but it might struggle a little with any new games And if you try to play anything on high settings
