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

Its nice to see Acer stepping up and producing a well rounded gaming laptop for under $1,000. The first thing you will notice is how slim and lightweight it is with a solid metal feel. Windows 11 is a relatively easy system to setup but there are several trail services that are best skipped or signed up for later on. The only freebie software that I do recommend signing up for is the 1 year of 100GB storage with Dropbox. You dont need any of the extra bells and whistles it will try to sell you but a year of service without having to provide a credit card is a good deal. The keyboard layout feels spacious and does not flex. So, typing is actually pleasant on this laptop. I am not sure the exact brightness level but it is brighter than my Asus TUF gaming laptop that I am coming from. The 144 refresh rate is appreciated and a must for the modern gamer. I was worried the RTX 3050 Ti would be lackluster after using a RTX 2060 for the past two years, but it holds its own quite well (see uploaded video of Hogwarts Legacy playing very smoothly with an xbox controller on this laptop). If you are buying this for teen or young adult gamer, I recommend pairing it with one of the official Xbox series S/X controllers. This is one of current favorite controllers and it works well for Windows 11 gaming on this laptop. For anyone wondering if a 3050 Ti can handle VR gaming with only 4GB VRAM, the answer is yes. I connected a Odyssey+ VR headset that ran Townsmen, Noun Town, or Vacation Simulator smoothly (all excellent VR games). The 512GB SSD is speedy but may not be enough if you have a large photo collection or if you like to store tons of games to switch between. There is room to add another SSD and 1TB SSD upgrade should only cost between $60 - $100. At this price point, I think 512GB is reasonable for a baseline as is the 16GB of DDR4 RAM. I dont think you will need more for another a few years. The i5 is plenty powerful for gaming and business tasks. Intel has finally caught up to AMD with there current generation mobile processors.

La recibí en tiempo y forma pero al momento de querer utilizarla la primera vez, nunca encendió, y nunca dio señales de vida alguna, ya en proceso de devolucion.

Trabajo con gráficos de alta calidad

This laptop is an excellent PC for the cost. The performance is better than most desktop/laptops at similar price. There is no delay in loading videos or games and the visual quality is better than expected. I play Runescape 3, Lost Ark, Rust, Destiny 2, Apex Legends, etc in ultra with no problems at all. My only complaint is the storage and ram. I will be upgrading those soon. I would recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a budget gaming laptop.

Got this for Prime Day, won’t even turn on out of the box

El equipo es excelente, funciona muy bien y estéticamente es muy agradable, le actualice la ram a 32 GB, agregue otro m.2 y un ssd, esto fue realmente fácil de hacer, el equipo llega completamente sin carga y es importante presionar el conector del cargador en la parte de atrás del portátil un poco fuerte hasta escuchar el click para que ensamble correctamente, hasta el momento es un excelente portátil y a un muy bien precio por sus características, en juegos sube la velocidad y sonido de los abanicos pero a un nivel normal no molesto, se puede ajustar las opciones graficas de cada juego y los límites de fps para así no darle mucha carga a la GPU, pero esto ya a gusto de cada quien, espero siga funcionando así siempre.

The computer is excellent. As a gaming laptop, the Acer Nitro 5 offers decent value. A really nice feature is the backlit keyboard and very comfortable to use as well. The display is decent, certainly not the best, but not terrible either.

... if the laptop doesn’t appear to be charging. Don’t take your laptop apart, your warranty will be voided.

Laptop has battery issues and you will void warranty if you tear it apart.

En realidad decepcionada con la compra. Compre esta computadora a mi sobrino para su escuela y también por los juegos. Esta computadora no tiene ni un mes de haber llegado al extranjero. Cuando mi sobrino comenzó a usarla resulta que la batería solo esta durando dos horas y media y en la descripción dice que dura alrededor de 8 horas.
