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

I guess this is the best value for your money when it comes down to decent laptop. I finally upgraded from an old Dell laptop (12 years old) which at the time was top notch. First the cons:

Build quality was good, though screen wobbles a bit while typing. Processor was great i7 with lots of power, DDR4 ram in 2023 for such price is absolutely not worth it, GPU 3050ti was mediocre, nothing special . Gen 4 SSD was good though. Cooling with side and back vents was good. Keyboard was very nice, soft keys with full numeric keyboard and backlit. SCREEN WAS HORRIBLE. I can expect this kind of screens in around 400 to 500$ budget laptops, but at this price point this is not acceptable at all. Colors were extremely washed out, brownish hue over every color, red looked brownish orange, green looked brownish light green. Brightness was also kind of low, not even 300 nits, probably around 270 nits. RETURNED because of such poor quality of display. Acer support was terrible, they had no clue . Use better quality of display from Sharp/NEC or even AUO( AU Optronics) but with better sRGB / Adobe RGB. Colors on my 2017 Dell g3 were much much better than this laptop. RETURNED .

When I got mine it had the black screen of death but I looked online how to fix it and it took 14 hours to fix before the screen would work again, then I had to reinstall windows 11 and that took another almost 3 hours. Very much a pain in the rear to fix. I used the laptop for a week now and few more issues happened, the screen will sometimes go static and everything looks wrong and the whole thing will crash randomly when that happens. Only keeping it for now because of its specs and I need it for work.

I run kali and it works perfect

Can play most games efficiently. Playing some high fps games like warzone this thing struggles but overall happy with the laptop. Price isn’t bad but if you want something to play with higher fps I’d go for laptop have 3080’s or the newer 40 series cards. Or just build your own pc.

Great performance. High quality.

battery life is very short

Corre todos los juegos a más de 75 fps, las temperaturas no se me hacen exageradas, el único punto negativo fue que la cámara dejo de funcionar y no la detecta, fuera de eso muy buena laptop.

Works Great so far after two months with no issues. Can play games with high graphics settings.

Overall havent had any major issues, the only issues are drivers not being compatible w win11.. but thats normal.
