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

Bought this piece of crap on april 20th and it wouldnt turn on. Sent it back on the 25th and 25 business days later still havent received my laptop back.

This laptop was a wonderful upgrade that I don’t regret one bit! Before this, I was using something way weaker that couldn’t get the job done at all but this laptop is good for games and more!

I see a lot of people complaining about the disk space and yeah, it’s low for a gaming laptop but I just got me a 1tb m.2 ssd for $126 so I’m not complaining. Even with 8gb Ram it seems to run smooth and work well also (though I am upgrading to 32gb). I can’t comment on the gaming bc I can’t install a real game until my ssd upgrade comes in but I’m hopeful and I’m happy thus far. It is important to note that to charge you have to push the cable in kinda hard until you hear the click sound, otherwise it doesn’t charge. It took me a few minutes to figure that out. Also, not a lot of bloatware installed so that’s good too; it’s unnecessary to use Norton when you have Windows Defender so I’d uninstall it along with Dropbox. Laptop isn’t very heavy and to keep it that way I’m opting to not use the HDD bay and instead just use m.2 ssd instead. This seems like a quality product so far so hopefully it lasts as long as my last Asus laptop did (6+yrs & still going). Wish a Blu-ray drive was included but not a deal breaker as you can buy an external slim one for around $100. Highly recommend this system so far, just know you’re going to need to upgrade the storage immediately before playing storage heavy games like WoW, COD, etc hence 4/5 stars.

I really like the product. It came fast too. I think a $900 laptop should have some sort of disc drive, but Im otherwise satisfied.

So i got this and I dont really mess with these things but what pisses me off is havent to fix every little thing. This laptop well really good for like a week or two until i noticed stupid frame drops, fortnite literately being unplayable and all. I then found the darn reason, I used Intel Xtu and saw the problem, overheating every darn time. I have a coolpad for this and my room is literally cold not blazin hot but yeah the cpu will hit 90 degrees! The gpu temps are always fine but the cpu sucks so hard so no wonder fortnite is unplayable. I found a couple options on reddit, they were to fix it myself by buying thermal paste, send it to acer to add shitty thermal paste so i can have this problem in a couple weeks again, or return and refund. Thing is, i got this well priced and the 3050 does what i need it for. I kid you not i play almost every game nearly max with optimizations done at that 144 fps and i have used programs to see my avg so yeah. Forza horizon 5 is the only thing I cant run at those frames cause the gpu has too few ram or whatever it uses, its only 4gb. And yeah i did buy additional 8gb ram and 1tb ssd.

I did not like anything about it since what happened. But Im not going to lie, my son did like it cause of course he was playing games on it. What kid wouldnt like that.

I havent tried out the touchscreen just yet.... but the streaming parts of usage have been phenomenal!

Just came. DOA. Didnt start, wouldnt charge.

Took it out of the box and it doesn’t work. Wont charge or turn on. Had to return it. Definitely the last time I ever buy an Acer.

Buyer beware! Screen/graphics card starting showing distortion on the display about 3 weeks after the warranty period was over. My previous laptop went for 10 years before lightning destroyed it. This one barely made it a year, which is abysmal.
