I was in the market for a laptop, as I felt it was time for an upgrade. Being a retired IT professional, I needed a laptop where I can use my 4K drone footage for video editing...and do some gaming as well. I knew what specs I wanted and what I was willing to pay...even if there was a trade off between specs and affordability.

Works great for live streaming and production. Been using for just under a year, no problems. Just as fast as the day I got it!

I use it for gaming but have to keep charger attached as battery life is awful.

Nice laptop, very powerful

Me parece una nave espacial, la mejor compraa que hice en años

I bought this laptop for my son for Xmas 2022. It died 12 1/2 months later, 2 weeks past the warranty period. Acer wanted $850 just to look at it, and Best Buy now tells me the motherboard is shot and its more expensive to repair than just replace. $1400 down the drain. I will never purchase anything from Acer again - absolute trash.

I bought this laptop to dip my toes in the water for PC gaming and also to use as a personal PC for emails, browsing the web, etc. I used a separate monitor as I wasnt using this as a mobile gaming set-up. The version I got with the i7 and 3060 laptop GPU was great for warzone. I was able to run well above standard graphics on Warzone at about 100FPS. I never had any issues with overheating, although I did buy a cheap fan deck to put the laptop on. The fan isnt quiet, but that is to be expected with any gaming laptop, especially when under stress. I have since bought a full gaming desktop as I realized I did want to fully make the jump from console to PC but I gave this laptop to my wife who plays the Sims and Age of Empires and she has seen HUGE performance boosts compared to her older Asus Nitro 5. Her games run much smoother on this laptop. I would recommend this laptop to anyone looking to get into pc gaming or someone that is looking for a multi-use portable PC. Be sure to check the specs and reviews for the specific model youre buying as Amazon shows reviews for similar pcs with different internal specs.

Was able to do more than I expected with this laptop. I can play a lot of big title games with a mix of mid to high settings. The sound is about what you would expect from a laptop but nobody picks a laptop based on its stock speakers. Says it has windows 10 but you will be asked to upgrade to 11 for free on startup. If youre looking for an affordable laptop to get started with PC gaming, I can recommend this one from my experience.

Just like so many other reviewers have pointed out, the audio quality is terrible. Honestly, my phone has better audio than this laptop. With some videos, I had to put my ear real close to the laptop to try to hear. I returned it and was charged $125.00 restocking fee.

I got this just to try it out. I play a lot of wireless VR on my Vive Pro and Quest 2. I figured this would be ok at it but thankfully it blew my mind. Yeah it is very loud when you turn the fans/turbo on but it seems to have great cooling. In VR, I dont notice it. Didnt think it could play VR well without a cable and thankfully I was wrong. Had an old router I hooked up and it is flawless, almost better than my i78700k, 3080, 16 gig ram (less than 300hz). Nice desktop I have but my mobo is a bit slow.
