Acer Nitro 5 AN515-55-53E5 Gaming Laptop | Intel Core i5-10300H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 GPU | 15.6 FHD 144Hz IPS Display | 8GB DDR4 | 256GB NVMe SSD | Intel Wi-Fi 6 | Backlit Keyboard

This laptop did not work out of the box. It had a loose cable on the motherboard that was preventing it from booting. The webcam has one of the noisiest images I have ever seen.

This is a great and not too terribly expensive gaming laptop. I have a Mac for my work/schoolwork and was looking for a laptop that I could play Planet Zoo and some other Steam games on because they aren’t supported on Mac. This one fit the bill! It does get a little loud and hot when expelling heat through the vents, but that’s understandable considering how large Planet Zoo is. The graphics and speed are great too. Are there better gaming laptops? I’m sure, but if it’s not your primary laptop and you only use it for gaming/entertainment purposes, why spend the money when this one gets the job done pretty darn well and looks awesome while doing it?

Thing was broken, doesn’t turn on at all give me my money back

Need to push power cord until click heard! I thought I got a dead laptop until I read a review in Spanish that pointed out that the power cord that plugs in to the back of the laptop needs to go in until an audible click is heard.

Broken right out of the box. Did not charge and did not turn on.

So I loved this laptop for a whole day. Thought it was great. But suddenly after just 24 hours, it’s broken. It says that my battery is at 100% yet if I unplug it, it automatically shuts off - just goes straight to black. If I wanted a device I had to keep plugged in to use, I’d have bought a desktop instead.

I use this at work so I dont use it often. Today out of no where it shut off and wont turn back on.

We bought this laptop NEW for our son for Christmas last year. Right before Christmas, we unpackaged the laptop to get it all set up so it was ready to go Christmas morning. To our surprise - the laptop would not turn on. We tried several different ways and we still could not get the laptop to turn on. So, we called Acer customer service to see what was going on. The Acer rep told us that our laptop had been serviced in September for issues! We told him that that couldn’t be so because we just bought it brand new off of Amazon - he insisted that it was a refurbished laptop and even had case #’s for the services done to the laptop in September. We immediately called Amazon, to complain that we had purchased a new laptop from them and had received a used one. It took a half hour of bickering with the rep before she offered to “speak with her manager” to issue us a refund of the difference in price. Unfortunately, it was too close to Christmas to return and receive an actual new laptop in time for Christmas morning. Amazon eventually gave me the refund of the price difference and the rep stated that “Amazon has no control over whether a customer receives a refurbished or NEW laptop!” Are you kidding me?! They are sure to make you pay different price points though - even though they don’t know what you’re actually going to receive.

I think the legion has more of a quality feel to it. for the price, this unit is a workhorse and good spec that’ll last a few years.

I recommend this laptop for gaming or advanced tasks.
