Greater than one weekThis is the second Acer gaming laptop Ive had, and both times theyve had strange problems with WiFi connections where theres a non-trivial chance that the network settings are going to just be completely unavailable (as in, I cant even view what networks are available to connect to, the network & internet settings program wont even load, I have no internet connection, and network diagnostics cant help at all). The problem happens regardless of what connection Im using, regardless of the computers temperature. Internet forums seem to suggest that this might be a consistent problem that others with the same model have as well. The laptop works great for the first 6-8 months, and then these network problems pop up randomly. Sometimes Ive been able to resolve it by restarting the computer a few times, sometimes it seems I have to let the computer sit for several hours. It just happened again, and neither of those are fixing it so I guess Im going to have to resort to a full system restore. Its such a shame, because the laptop is such a great value otherwise - but perhaps issues like this are exactly why.

> 3 dayThis product seemed great but everything I wanted to do with it, it cant seem to do. It claimed to be for vr but it only has one usb 3.0 port. To use oculus rift properly at all you need three. The USB c port does not put out video so you cant use a USB c powered monitor. The battery does not have great capacity for a gaming laptop, it needs at least 2000mah more.

> 3 dayI use this laptop heavily for games like rainbow six siege and destiny 2, and I was constantly having issues with lagging and throttling, this was because the temps got up to 80 after just a little bit, and 95+ after a couple hours of play, i then undervolted it by -125 milivolts and now it consistently still hits around 100 frames in game, but them temp stays from 55-60 even after hours of play, and more importantly it doesnt throttle, if this wasnt an issue in the first place it would be a 5 star rating because this laptop has insane power and speed and is such good quality after tweaking it a little bit

> 3 dayI was highly skeptical of this laptop as it seemed like a too good to be true price for the features packed into it, but after 8 weeks or so of tweaking and testing Ive managed to figure it out well. Heres my summary:

10-06-2025I solely bought this back in late 2018 because it had VR Ready plastered everywhere. I notice the pictures now are missing that sticker but mine still has it. No Display Port means no PC VR support other than thee first gen headsets. Not thunderbolt USB insures theres no work around for the issue. This might be a good thing since this laptop already feels like its going to burst into flames after playing a game with decent graphics after about 20 minutes. That being said, it does run higher end games surprisingly well. Just dont plan to press any keys above the W row without gloves.
