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

The charging indicator didnt light up when plugged in and the device would not turn on. Just put it in the return post. Will update my review when I get my refund. Because of the price, Amazon wont just send a replacement, I have to wait a week after they get it back to get my money back and then make a new purchase. Because Im not the first to have this exact issue, Im contemplating looking to buy a different laptop altogether.

I like the feel of the keyboard and just the size and frame of the whole product itself. Has slightly sharp edges so it hurts your forearm if you type and rest you arms on it. The performance is outstanding in playing games but you cant really multitask as much on it since it only has 8gb ram and a good CPU. but definitely can run at 60 or more in fps in warzone 2.0.

I loved this Laptop before replacing it with my newest one I bought at a Black Friday discount of only $1000, the Asus A15, RTX 3050Ti, Ryzen 7, upgraded 6800H/ 32GB RAM 1TB SSD). If your not wanting Ryzen but Intel 7 instead, than I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND this Acer Nitro 5 Gaming Laptop. I attached a picture of the red keyboard as this was one of the many features I loved most about the Acer 17.6 Laptop. I would give it an overall rating of about 4.8 Stars since the one I have now cost around the same price but comes with FULL RBG functionality, and 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, and both are expandable.(See my review on the Asus A15, April 2022 Model here on Amazon, or YouTube. I do alot of reviews by choice, and in order to help others know what it is they might be investing their hard earn dollars into. I think all reviews should be 100% honest and straight forward, but unfortunately there are some who might bock at this; I dont let that stop my being open and honest though. So yeah, I would recommend this Acer model if your not into Asus or are on a tighter budget as I myself am on.

I made sure it had backlight keyboard. Yes, it has one, but shuts off every 30 seconds and NO WAY to keep it on or change that length of time. Stupid feature, so you are always having to hit any key to turn it back on. The most annoying feature ever.at. Worse yet, the keyboard is hard to see in even low light when it isnt lit up. The backlight keyboard, while true, is misleading. Would never have bought this computer if I had known that.

Hasta ahorita todo bien, la acabamos de recibir hoy, todo pinta bien, primero creimos que no funcionaba porque no encendía, pero no estaba bien conectado el cargador a la laptop. Llego a tiempo.

This was a Christmas gift for my son, and he won’t have it before he leaves, because they simply would not offer a replacement product, only a refund. and the price for this laptop is a bit too steep (regular price) to just order out right. The item was defective and would not turn on. Customer service had no options to help fix the problem.

Useless laptop, that wont turn on

In terms of gaming, this laptop is on the low-end. You’ll want an RTX 3060, or preferably a 3070 for excellent visual quality especially if you plan to use your laptop hooked up to a nice monitor or TV. Personally, I use an ultra-high-end desktop with an RTX 3090 founder’s edition for high-end 4K gaming. Meanwhile this laptop is my go-to for playing my favorite MMOs, even when I’m traveling for work. The high refresh rate is exactly what I need for gaming.

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.

This laptop seems to be a pretty solid entry level gaming laptop. In my household its primarily getting used for a little Minecraft with the kids, some Halo, a bit of software development, but otherwise standing in for a family computer. It hits the marks for all of those things.
