Buy this laptop (on sale) - Acer Nitro V (2023)

[@thomasharrick]

To anyone from LMG - that trick, where the editor changed the saturation to show the effectively poor color space (6:28), was a neat way of visualizing a statistic that is often hard to wrap your head around real-world impact. Sure, it's not a lab-quality demo, but "your colors might look like this" computes a lot better in my head than "it has x% of color space coverage". Please do more of that. Little touches like that make the videos so much better.

[@pistol0grip0pump]

Agreed, it's fast, to the point and understandable to 99% of the audience watching. (Before anyone asks, the 1% I'd say is for the blind and severely visually impaired where visual demonstrations/examples aren't able to be taken in so easily but in comparison to what a lot of other creators and channels do, those examples are significantly better :) )

[@THE-X-Force]

Yup .. that was brilliant.

[@drishalballaney]

Also Giving just 45% ntsc color space with 250 nits in 2024 should be a crime, the panels should be minimum 99% srgb atleast to be usable for watching content

[@enginerd80]

Yes, I hadn't realized what it really means. I had assumed something like that the colors would be inaccurate, like always tinted somehow to look like different colors (e.g. like when the eye-saving mode has been turned to the maximum on a phone), but the demonstration made me see that it makes the picture look more like saturation had been turned down. Also, I realized that's how the screen on my Lenovo IdeaPad looks like after first using another computer for a while, and before getting again used to the IdeaPad's colors.

[@victorwillhuber]

How would people that are already watching the video in a screen with poor color space? Would they see no change at all and not understand what is he talking about or would they think is even worst than it is?

I bought an Acer Nitro 5 back in 2019--8th gen Intel, 1050 Ti, 8G RAM, 256GB SSD. First ever computer that was mine, beforehand I was using a 6 (8?) year old AIO PC that was dying. Got me started in my computer hobby.

I'm a fan of the Acer Nitro series. They have quietly been the low key best cheapie gaming laptops since about 2016 or so. Best bang for the buck at their price point especially if you go for a well equipped slightly older or refurbished model. Some corners are cut like not having a very rigid body and not the best viewing angles on the screen but overall they are one of the best deals in gaming not just gaming laptops.

[@spdcrzy]

This is a really, REALLY good value if you use it as a low-end desktop replacement and use it with an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. It's similar to what I used to do. It's passable for occasional travel use, and has a good enough price-to-performance ratio WHEN ON SALE that it's a pretty good "beginner" laptop for someone who maybe doesn't really care about things like keyboard flex or bad speakers - and maybe they keep it plugged into a pair of speakers as well.

I also just have throttlestop for the noise just in case I'm not doing something intense.

Gamedev here. The "enhance pointer precision" thing hasn't been a thing for more than a decade now. Games use raw pointer data since the moment microsoft allowed us to do it easily. The last game where this had an effect that I remember was Far Cry 2 and CoD4 (the original)

[@crazy5948]

I do like the fact that the laptop does have a numpad, i cant live without one. But i think that the absence of a numpad LED to indicate if its on or not should be a more talked about feature. laptops still have it but its only in very specific ones that are either really expensive and impractical. Or really cheap ones that dont have the performance needed

I went from an Asus tuf 15 inch, fhd, 3060, 12650h to an Acer nitro 16, 165hz QHD+ 500nit, 4070, 7940hs. I was worried about the acer while awaiting delivery cause yeh, its a budget brand but I love it. The built-in 1TB NVME is outperforming the 2TB Samsung 980 pro by a couple percent, screen is amazing, thermals good, quiet as heck on balanced where I leave it. Camera and speakers are meh. I never use the trackpad. For the sound I had to KILL the DTS, it was unusable while DTS was running, even with my DT 770's, uninstall that immediately. Hinge is way better than the Asus tuf too.

No wonder it's better - better Model to start with and without the crap Intel sells these days. Acer can actually build good laptops - but quality comes at a cost, even with them.

[@ridhokartoni7847]

I think The LOQ from Lenovo is a better option for the overall improvement of the Performance. like having a mux switch and advanced Optimus, and for the budget option we can get the 3050 6gb vram variant for a lot cheaper if you don't want to game intensely. more solid build quality the keyboard is better and not so gaming looks. personally i have the intel 3050 variant and its always running quiet when i code or browsing with 20 chrome tabs open and while gaming the laptop is not getting really high temps and hover between 70-80 ish while running AAA games.

Im pointing this out as I own this laptop that the speakers are very good, the problem is out of the box the dtsx ultra makes the audio preset to shooter config. The speaker are actually very loud and above average for the price that it was launched at atleast in my country. The LOQ is almost the same price here for the 3050 6gb and except for the MUX switch and better display, nitro is more of a value for money lap here. But got to say the LOQ is a very fine laptop.

[@kidsalex13]

i got one last year on sale at best buy for $500, (2022 model, N22C2) and honestly i love it, the only thing i would change is put the usb ports on the left so they arent in the way of the mouse. But as a regular consumer, just a great laptop, and easy to take apart, all the screws on the bottom are the same size, the two m.2 slots are easy to get to, so is the ram and the battery, and it just performs great even if the fans are a bit loud sometimes (edit after watching video) wow the insides look a lot different, the keyboard on the 2022 isnt very squishy at all especially at normal typing pressure, for audio the 2022 to me sounds just fine, better than the hp, toshiba and asus laptops ive had in the past, i think youd like the layout of the 2022 one a lot more, and for $500 for a slightly older one with an i5 and a 3050, you cant really beat that imo

[@MistakenMedia087]

This space is very competitive, bought an omen 16 4050, 13420, 16 gb variant for 750 on sale(hp equivalent to the lenovo) and it's great. Only gripe is the single ssd slot, and 512 storage. But for 750$ its been a steller travel computer, when im not gonna cart around my pc.

[@LotoTheHero]

I'd also disagree with his assessment on the keyboard/trackpad (at least compared to my older unit). The keyboard is actually fine to type on for me, the track pad I don't like at all. It has the clicky buttons under the track pad and often I will intend to click one side and end up clicking the other. For navigating the screen space it's fine, but the "mouse" buttons are pretty awful.

@@ForgivenSheep3 throttlestop is a free program used to prevent ur cpu/gpu from overheating because at 89-90 degrees performance is noticably cut down by the system itself. It works great for most games but some like Horizon it NEEDS to be disabled. Every cpu is different so u should research urs and find best parameters. It is strongly recommended to install fxsound and make it to gaming preset. It is balanced and works for music and games.

I own a 2019 Nitro, the 60 hz display one with a 1650. It's a great machine for the price I paid new (500$ CAD), the downsides are the bezels, quite big (got used to it), the weight, the battery and the screen which has burn in problems. Even after Acer supposedly replaced my screen, this problem came back and I now have to deal with it since it's outside my warranty window. Also, the back cover had the plastic break off due to the heat. It's toasty, don't put it on your lap. I wish that the back cover has been upgraded to something a bit more durable, even more so around the Ethernet Jack and the back screw holes. The power brick is chonky as hell, it's painful to carry in a backpack with the laptop, so beware, considering it didn't change. My next purchase will definitely be something lighter with a discrete GPU, considering I need it for work. The battery is horrendous down the line though. You have to be plugged in 80% of the time, it even drains quite fast while turned off.

Laptops are becoming like TVs, in that nobody really expects a lot out of the built in speakers. With TVs, you're going to get some kind of soundbar setup, or a surround sound. With laptops, you're going to use earbuds or headphones. If I'm trying to have a gaming laptop on a budget, I'd rather use a modestly priced pair of headphones, earbuds, or a headset than listen to the built in speakers. As you noted, headphones etc solve the fan noise issue.

The speakers are down firing and quiet. Battery life is garbage. I also had my bluetooth and wifi decide it didn't want to work for an entire month last year. It just quit working one day out of the blue. I had to buy a wifi dongle and wired headphones. Somehow it miraculosly started working again. I will never buy another Acer product again.

Man this ticks every boxes for cheap gaming laptop, horrible screen, bad keyboard, unusable speakers, thick and massive and the loudest thing possible in your classroom. This is your run of the mill college student's gaming laptop😂

[@rachmanfachri]

Under that budget I prefer to go to lenovo. Better keyboard and sturdier chassis, also with better cooling configuration. I'm still rocking my $750 2022 ideapad gaming and all is fine, added a decent $100 monitor recently and it's much better than I ever anticipated

[@demonpride1975]

you could do a bluetooth speaker, but i am betting if you are using a laptop, you are more then likely going to invest in a good bluetooth headset.

[@LukasWilliam]

Holyy..1k usd for that specs?? That kind of money you can get HP Victus 16 with ryzen 7 7840HS, RTX 4060, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, 100% srgb screen and 1080p webcam

[@braddechion4343]

I know its a different machine, but I'm looking at picking up a Nitro 5 with a 13th gen i9 processor, RTX 4060 graphics, 16 gigs of ram (upgradable) and a 512 GB SSD. What would your thoughts on that machine be at a $800 black friday price point? I do a bit of gaming, most graphics intensive being Bulders Gate 3.

[@tatsamraipure2712]

I bought this laptop for 75.5k INR which would be around 900USD which is actually a really good price considering the Indian market. Also I have the 13420H version with the 4050. Still I can Alex's review is pretty accurate but this laptop is pretty good enough for me. Except that the fans are loud and the keyboard backlit can't be left turned on forever and the display is kinda meh. Other than that great laptop considering in my country at this price getting a 4050 is rare and I bought this laptop especially for that 4050.

[@Prithvi-]

That was a shit deal,the 3060 is better and like 5- 7k less expensive, so you paid a whole 5-7k for dlss 3?

Just a heads up, The Nitro V is a completely different laptop from the Nitro 5 The nitro V14/V15/V16 are refresh of the Acer Aspire 7 which used to come with RTX 30xx series while the Nitro 5 has been refreshed into the Nitro 16/17

I am one of those people who really hate numpad as it shifts the trackpad a little to the left and you are cramed in that region.

[@streetshamanproductions]

Bro rough with that box the first 5 secs when he slammed it down

[@StarkCraftPlays]

gotta say, saw the title and was hoping this was the same, if not similar model to the nitro 5 i have, but its not, though i still enjoy the videos. to anyone watching planning to buy a laptop, its always nice to take all review videos with a small grain of salt, get a bigger sample scale, and just because the host may not like the device, or thinks its lower spec does not mean it will not serve its purpose! keep in mind their jobs is to talk about the tech they review which ranges from low to enthusiast grade so while something is mediocre for them does not mean its not a fantastic machine in its own rights. Absolutely fantastic videos in all! on another note, damn im glad my laptop isnt as bad as the one being reviewed haha..

[@padugarjomarc.2227]

Does this nitro v is better than lenovo loq 15irh8 i5 12th gen and rtx 4050? Thanks for the answer ♥️

[@nathancharnas]

I would have went for a desktop if I had the space but I just went with the Nitro. I got the Ryzen 5 and RTX 3050 6 gig laptop and I am loving it so far. Plays all my games in my Steam library no problem. I do recommend.

[@ItsTyYo]

If you don't mind the question, what games do you play? I want to get into the PC world but not at some of the price points. I mainly want to play games like RDR2, DayZ and emulate older gen games from the ps2 gamecube era but I'm not sure what I actually need vs what people are "selling"

[@nathancharnas]

@@ItsTyYo I’ve played RDR2 on here and it’s flawless. I play a lot of DOOM Eternal, GTA 5 with graphics mods and Devil May Cry 5. I’ve also emulated some PS3 games like inFamous and haven’t had a problem. I’ve never really had a gaming computer before so this is just all amazing to me and I do recommend it.

[@akulshrivastav4405]

Trust me it's not exactly the same as the other version of Acer Nitro "5", that has a 99Whr battery, and much more power than this. This model is basically somewhere in between a normal laptop and a gaming laptop, and that thing mentioned about the nitro sense, I have the other one, and nitro sense works just fine.

[@delinquent3574]

Outside of the poor screen, battery, and keyboard, hardware wise, is this solid?

[@510tuber]

Yep. Just use a big TV, external keyboard/mouse, and keep it plugged in.

[@FakeJeep]

Went through three of these things, with one being warranted once. The GPU simply didn't last on any of them and /something/ cooked despite the GPU temp showing acceptable ranges... since all three failed from the GPU throwing artifacts. The fact that all /three/ failed just outside of the 1y warranty was also a tad sketch... One I could see, but not three with each dying within 1-2 months of each other. I just can't recommend them for laptops at all. "You get what you pay for" as the saying goes....

[@TheDrMihai]

I just bought one with a 12 gen i5 and a 4060 for a VERY reasonable price and i`ve been using it every day and i`m ready to say i`m never buying MSI again after buying Acer :X :))

Can you do a video on Lenovo LOQ as well? The one with same specs or Ryzen CPU.

[@carmeliesalvajan7527]

Good day, just want to ask is there any other laptop unit with the same price but better?

[@ShayzHQ]

Can you test the Acer Nitro 16 as it has good specs.

[@TheCooledV]

Its interesting how they named a rebranded Aspire 7 into the Nitro V while the actual Nitro 5 laptops got renamed into the Nitro 15 or 16

[@WrexBF]

Do yourself a favor and get the Acer Nitro 16 instead. It has a much better screen

[@handlemonium]

TUF A16 with Ryzen 7735HS/7940HS and 7600S/7700S this laptop's value killer IMO.

[@Cattus_Supreme]

I got the one with ryzen 5 3000 series h. Absolute SHIT thermals. Overheated everytime I played anything. Even fckn tf2 and Minecraft. Prolly the worst thing to use in South India where temps get to 40-45°c in the summer. The thing lasted 3 years, and I had some of my best memories on that.

[@770hoops]

I have a acer V15 nitro, do i need to plug the charger when gaming? Or it will destroy the battery? Pls help i am new at laptops. 🙏

[@usarmyfl1]

Can you just add an external monitor? If so, which kind? Thanks.

[@DeepteshLovesTECH]

Alex DTS:X Ultra is completely broken in this laptop in Windows 11 XD It's funny because it comes out of the box with Windows 11 lmao. I installed Windows 10 which actually made the laptop sound way way way better and cleaner and DTS:X actually worked. This laptop other than this bug and extremely loud fans without any reason, provides the best gaming performance for the dollar in India. For fans I just use Custom mode at 40% fans speed.
