Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-79TD Gaming Laptop | Intel Core i7-11800H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU | 15.6 FHD 144Hz IPS Display | 8GB DDR4 | 512GB NVMe SSD | Killer Wi-Fi 6 | Backlit Keyboard

After opening the box, it did not turn on. I thought the battery was low, so I connected it to the charger, but the led did not turn on. After a whole night connected, it did not turn on.

Overall the machine seems good, but the product and Q&A did not specify that the keyboard is ONLY red. I inferred from the images that red is a popular color for gaming alarms, not that any manufacturer would make a hard-to-see keyboard that is ONLY red with no backlit co0mor changes possible. Now, I hope that there is some way to replace the keyboard with one that does not have the keys colored black and red, but Acers website refers to tech help for and this product through Amazon does not seem to come with a basic warranty for assistance. Hmmmm. . .

We purchased this machine for the specific purpose of downgrading the OS to Windows 10 64 bit for use with some proprietary software that we use in the entertainment industry. The OS rollback went smoothly except for the audio driver. Hats off to Acers tech support! We were on the phone with them for 10 minutes, and the problem was solved with a replacement driver. The best part was we received no hassle from them about rolling back the OS on the machine. The unit is very fast, and the adaptive cooling which is crucial for us works very well. The most impressive feature was the new style screen technology. We lowered the resolution, and nothing become fuzzy, or blurry at all. the text is still crisp, and the graphics are excellent. For the price this is a great must buy if you want a quality machine that will stay relevant for several years, and not break the bank today when you buy it.

Works just fine. Would recommend.

Second Acer I have owned. The last was good, but had heat problems, and they seem to have addressed this on their newer models. Runs great, fast retreaval, great for gaming so far. I also run a second Acer monitor on it for productivity when working. Works like a charm.

So on the first shutdown i selected the update and shutdown option. The next day on Startup i was stuck in the Nitro 5 bluescreen loop just google it. And i had to basically wipe the HD and start over. This is pretty embarrassing for Acer. The second major issue that sticks out to me is the mouse they give you in the bundle. The geometry of the mouse forces your thumbs INTO the thumb buttons and forces you to hit them all the time. They must be trying to give these things away to get rid of them. I havent tried playing any games yet since i basically wiped any download progress i made the previous day. Ill update in a few months to give some further insight to this Laptop.

Typical junk. First one arrives DOA, no matter how hard the cable is pushed in. Second one gets lost in transit. Third is the third Acer laptop I bought from Amazon that invariably fails to function sooner if not later. Maybe I should consider Lenovo.

Im primarily impressed with the speed though I may be biased since I had an outdated computer. The color, the graphics, everything is excellent and Im just getting started with learning everything on this system.

Good performance

My son is very pleased with it. Fast shipping
