Acer Nitro 5 (2022) Review - Great Price, AMAZING Performance
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2024
- The Acer Nitro 5 has received a big time update for 2022 with new CPUs and GPUs. But what really sets the Acer Nitro 5 apart is its price and actual availability right now. The RTX 3050 Ti version can compete with much higher end laptops because of its GPU power and so does the RTX 3060, even though both have the Intel Alder Lake i5-12500H CPU. But there's a few catches when it comes to saving money on gaming laptops....

I just bought my 13yr old son the Nitro 5 3050 Ti for Christmas. I’m a single mom and he has an expensive medical condition, so it was really all I could afford. Hopefully this works better than the cheaper HP he has because the gaming is getting a little serious and I’m over the constant yelling at his current laptop 😂
Wishing all the best for you and your son :) happy gaming!
Best mother out there trust me he gone be happy cause i was and make sure he get a decent mouse for like 15 dollar or more for the game... Have a great christmas.
I hope he enjoys it 🙂
Hope he enjoys the upgrade and his medical condition improves!
I got one too for christmas and it’s rlly good!!
Fantastic that you're including battery testing with all of your laptop revies. A big +1 for that!
Would like to see the Nitro vs a Dell laptop. Dell also had crappie budget display screen specs. I'm now wondering which ones would win the best display?
Most unreliable low quality brand ever. The repair service suck, the pc is broken over a year of use.Never buy antyhing Acer! Acer= SCAM
Thank you for including CPU power. This is glossed over and not mentioned in many other reviews. The OEM cooling design can radically change a chips performance, and in bad ones..it may not even reach AMD/Intel's base spec. This means shorter/lower boost if any. Glad to see the nitro has improved.
Another great review video. There is something special about this particular channel that makes it easy for people to understand the key points. There are a lot of other tech channels which provided lots of numbers and figures but personally I find them extremely overwhelming and not easy to follow (they are kind of boring too as they follow the same routine content over and over again). There are a lot more "personalities" in Hardware Canucks and it's one of my favorite tech channels. Thanks.
I've got an AN15-57-79TD with the i7 and I'm pretty happy with it. I enjoy your reviews, and you did lead with the "Great Price, AMAZING Performance", but I got up in arms about a few facets of the video.
I've figured out that I have to translate what laptop reviewers are saying from "I'm used to the best, but I'll get through this" level reviews, way down to what I'M used to. Don't take that personal, lol. All reviewers I've seen just can't seem to relate to the users who have had to buy cheap because of low funds (or buy cheap because it's smarter). But then, I started gaming when you manually set IRQ addresses and flipped DIP switches, so the worst tech today is still piles above what I remember clearly dealing with. So...I translate with allowances for First World Syndrome and the big money that is TH-cam, plus the fact that sponsors will give reviewers equipment that I would never spend the $$$ on.
My machine is a 3050Ti machine, came with 8GB RAM. I added another 8GB stick and installed an EVO 860 500GB I had in a box somewhere so I could start gaming. Quickly filled that up, but I'll get a bigger M.2 later when I feel like it. Here are a few comments on the points raised from the perspective of someone who isn't tech- or money-awash...
Firstly, Acer has been good to me. But then, I'm not a nitpicker about inconsequential stuff like bloat. The only issues that have dealt me hardship over the years are things with BIOS access that complicated Linux installs. Acer's are different there for sure, but again, nothing someone with any smarts can't handle. I've had 6 Acers in total now, among an occasional HP, Dell, and even Gateway. I've never had a hardware failure that I did not cause somehow. These comments about the flimsy hinges breaking are most likely from people who most likely find a lot of things in life flimsy...because they treat stuff like crap. And then blame the manufacturer for their stupid moves. I've never had a broken hinge on anything because I don't pick laptops up by the display or whatever. Using perception to understand the weakness of something makes you less likely to break stuff.
I don't understand the need to game on battery because there are power outlets in pretty much every place I'll ever be. I even had one wired on my back patio so I could sit under the umbrella and frag. So unless you enjoy gaming in a pasture, I just don't know why battery life is even mentioned, ever, for any gaming laptop. That's the only ding I can really give my Nitro, especially considering I gave $839 for it a couple weeks ago, though I did need to add the $30 RAM stick.
Again, bloatware? How is that any kind of big deal? It took me about two minutes of slow eye scanning to find the bloat and uninstall it. Another item that doesn't even deserve a mention, really on any laptop review. People who complain about having to remove bloat will sit through endless TH-cam videos about nothing, or (Yikes!) put up with ads all over their browsers, but then complain about how companies install bloat, which helps them buy their laptop at a lower price since the bloat pays some of the bills through advertising. If you REALLY don't want to deal with bloat, do a clean Windows install. Go ahead. Watch a TH-cam video about nothing while you wait.
The keyboard. I can talk about this because I type all day every day. I've used some terrible keyboards from all over the place, and some of them were on much higher-end units, and I've used some great ones, and some of them were on cheap machines. Maybe I'm lucky, but the keyboard on this Nitro (which I'm using now) is pretty good. I don't have the flex people mention, but then I don't type with hammers. If it did flex that would be okay too, because number one I didn't have to pay $1500 for this laptop, and number two, as a human I am adaptable to less than optimum conditions. Flex is a problem? First World problem there that's not a problem.
Yeah, this is enough. I appreciate the work you do, but I'm going to go jump into Halo, and then mow the grass. Sorry for the rant, but laptops are a lot like cars. You give a 16 year old driver a brand new top of the line whatever to park all day at school, so where do they go after that? The best is a hard act to top. Smart people start low and move up because YOU NEVER MISS WHAT YOU NEVER HAD. Economics 101 for the day. ✌
Lmao I love this comment.
Been using my Nitro 5 since fall, 2019 and if it weren't for budget gaming laptops like this one, then I probably would've quit gaming altogether cus yea... for the majority of people out there, money is the top factor, unfortunately.
I appreciate your indepth comment. It supports a lot of similar thoughts and experiences I've had while researching gaming laptops. Sounds like it will be just what I want.
Amen for your comment!
I am really glad that you analyze the display as well. I have been looking at nitro 5s from 2019 and they use the same damm display. I was initially hyped up about the fact that it is an IPS display but although very very few but some reviews at that time stated that it only 60% srgb.
the display aint that bad
Thanks for picking base models of these entry level laptops. Some reviewers are getting the most expensive configurations of the entry level laptops which no means are cheap.
Hey there. I got to visit Micro Center today and was determinied to buy something before having to drive home. (I live 12 hours away). They had the Nitro 5 17.3" model with Ryzen 7 6800H, 16GB DDR5, 1TB PCI Gen 4 NVME, and RTX 3060 on sale for $999. I picked it up and I'm setting it up now. So far so good. My question is this. I have not seen any reviews (of note) on this model. Do you have any thoughts on this config vs the models you talked about in this video?
Cheers
Rick
I got mine about a year and a half ago and love it. Bought it from a Micro Center so it was the "Platinum" edition with a 12700H, a 3070 and 32GB of RAM. Runs hot and loud but the performance is excellent, and I added two extra 2TB SSDs (one M.2, one SATA) and now have a great movie library and Steam library with me anywhere I go. With all the work I do in the Outback that leaves me with little to no connectivity, being able to just have a big entertainment library at my fingertips is a massive help.
I love you guys soo much! This channel is one of my fav tech channels. You guys have such a great production quality and the videos look so aesthetic and I love the vibe of the videos with great b rolls and such a warm welcoming voice that feels so peaceful. I've been watching this channel for so long and a few years ago I could see you guys getting pretty consistent views but I can't understand why you guys arent seeing much success on youtube these days considering how good your videos are. I hope the best for you guys. There must be a way to improve the statistics on youtube. I hope you guys never give up and keep posting great videos. I really hope we start seeing more people watching the videos. Have a good day.
"The keys are mushy" reminded me of playing on the Spectrum 48k as a kid (British home computer mostly used for games that had rubber keys).
Would you recommend this for engineering students? I need a laptop but I don't know what the specs I need to consider.
Got 1 of these for Christmas amazing performance is what I can confirm! (2021 version)
Could you also reveiw the new dell g15 with the same specs as the lower version of the nitro 5? Great video btw!
$679 for this on Black Friday this year. I scooped this thing up. Expensive to fix the MacBook Pro's screen, I cracked it, figured might be cheaper just to grab this. It came with 16GB of RAM, needed for video editing.
Hard to imagine people buying the more expensive nitro when Legion 5 pros with 3070's are going for the same price currently
Just bought one😂(i am from India though,they are at approximately similar price offline or with credit card offer on their website), bought the 3070 model

@@anirudhmathur5555 Hey, please tell me where did you buy it from?
Thank you for the review. Why still use R20 and not R23? Many other reviews have moved on to R23, so makes it difficult to compare.
Bro genial tu review excelente, mas claro directo y corto, contando todo lo que se necesita saber en el mas corto tiempo, desde ya te sigo crack! 🙌🙌🙌
Also I found the Acer Nitro 5 3050ti model with 16gb (RAM) and the I5-11000 Hexacore, processor at Wal-mart on clearance for $639. Worth it? I usually game on my self-built desktop pc or consoles. Thought about getting a steam deck instead.
I had a Nitro in like 2015, so this model's great granddad if you will. What can I say. Very good performance allrounder for a decent price.
The Acer Nitro series are some of the most balls to the wall, stable, good cooled gaming laptops ive ever seen. It throws out aesthetics and looks for just a simple gaming laptop that does what it's supposed to. PLUS, they're just straight up affordable.
Nah, they break within a year, look at the Acer subreddit lol
Ever heard legion?
@@swecreations nope. I have the 2019 model for two years. I would be skeptic about those complains if I were you. Some persons are very destructive.
@@dalefrancis9414 my sister has the ryzen 5 + rx560 variant of the acer nitro 2019. And it goes up to 90C+ when gaming. The cooling is bad and games stutters.
@@kgt8742 I have the GTX 1050 model. I do agree with the temperatures but honestly I don't worry about them too much. I find whenever you are playing the demanding titles on these lower models with lower graphics the temperatures goes rampant. It's almost like you shouldn't be playing certain games on these models. They only game I play that experience stutters with is star wars.
My previous laptop was a 2018 Acer Nitro 5, and that gaming laptop did it job well...but Acer doesn't make good looking gaming laptop in my subjective opinion. I currently now have a Lenovo Legion 7 and it's absolutely stunning!
is it good when u play games on it and would you recommend?
I think a good budget gaming laptop franchise is the omen series. Their budget laptops don’t have the most recent 12th gen CPU’s but because they don’t they cost only $1100-1200 for a 3060 at 100w. Of course there’s the victus by omen too, but I think for the 3060, I’d go omen, and for 3050 ti victus. That being said, for anything more powerful for a 3060, I think different brands have better line ups. To me, these are the true budget options, (can play any games med-high settings for less then $1200 before tax) as someone who owns the OMEN 3060, I’ll tell you it’s not perfect, but I’m more than happy with what I got for like $1150. PS the deign is minimalistic, and isn’t too chunky either.
Would you recommend this laptop for video editing, 4k and adobe premiere??
I am planning on getting this laptop with the i5 variant and rtx 3050 ,I think it's a very good budget option
What I am looking forward to more than anything is the Acer Swift 3 OLED that supposedly is coming out next month with Intel H series CPU’s starting at $900
Great review of both laptops 👍😇. Unfortunately not everyone can afford to spend more on a better laptop and to have something a the cheaper price point, while not great, is something at least as many gaming laptops can get quite pricey for little in return.
Hi, can you help me? Does Ideapad gaming 3 is better than acer nitro 5? Until now i can't decide whether victus 16, acer nitro 5, or ideapad gamin. I hope you notice me, advance thank you!
Hey, so I am considering to buy a gaming laptop but I am kind of confused on which one to buy, 1 have 2 options, I can either buy the Acer Nitro 5 (2022) or Hp Victus 2022 || i7 12650h RTX 3050
Do you have any suggustions on which one I should buy? I want to focus on gaming like 70% and on studying as well, like 30% on studying.
Do you prefer Hp Victus 2022 || i7 12650h RTX 3050 or Acer Nitro 5 (2022)?
Should i buy i5 12500h(ddr4) or ryzen 5 7535hs(has mux switch and ddr5) same prize
have they fixed the red RGB issue yet? my 2021 nitro 5 has red default RGB meaning in linux you basically have no RGB (cos who WANTS red?????) have they made it white by default yet
Every laptop user should know this.
1.
Just “raise the bottom” let more air into the machine and you will found CPU&GPU each them reduce 10~15°C or in high usage will have more efficacy
2.
You shouldn’t be use “laptop cooler”, cuz that effectiveness actually just like you put two bottle caps under laptop to raise it.
But the cooler still use your limited power and it will let CPU&GPU become hungrier.
Unless it has an “independent power supply”.
There also very many ways let your experience better, like
“gamer most of the time should limit cpu’s PL1&PL2 and offset voltage”
“discrete graphics card overclock”.
“Replace the thermal paste and clean the fan dust”.
Sorry my poor English, hope it's not too hard to read.
Just want help you guys.

Sorry to say but Best buy Canada has it at almost 1800$!!! Compared to US website (999USD).... Even conversion doesn't come up the same. That sucks I own a older nitro model for 5 years (i5/1050ti) for 1100 CAD and have not been disapointed. I would buy it again but not that high
Great review as always! Thanks!
I'm rocking the 2021 Nitro 5 !!!
Hi I need your advice here.
Which is better, same price 761.00 USD
Acer nitro 5 intel I5 12500h with gtx (brand new) 3050
8gb ram , 512 nvme
Or
Lenovo ideapad gaming 3 ( refurbished) with in warranty
Intel I5 11300h with 3050ti
16 GB ram (upgraded)
1tb nvme (upgraded)
I was under the impression that the Acer Nitro / Helios etc series were ALL limited by extremely low wattage to the gpu?
Great review. I was watching it on my nitro 5 2022 but my version has full hd 165hz( BOE NV156FHM-NY0 ) and now I don"t know if im blind or this screen is amazing for that money(about 1200 eur). My 12500h goes up to 95W but only for about a minute after which it reaches 100 C and goes down to 45W. My results in R23 are 1600 single and 14000 multi core. also combined score in 3d mark time spy is around 8900pts(my trop is 8998)
Is it good so far? Any overheating issues? Im planning to move from my dell 7577 with 7gen i7 and gtx1060 to nitro5 with 3070ti and i7. Costly, in my country is 2100 euros but its 400 euros cheaper than analogs. Also, will try to sell previous laptop. So overall value is going to be okay, especially if i use it for work.
One of the last few models that still come with 2.5" HDD and 2 slots of M.2
my question with the cheaper modal the 3050ti can i have two m.2's or not and is it 95 tdp?
i have the 2nd one he showed in the video its good asf definetly worth it ive had a few problems but i fixed them most have to do with heating do get a cooling pad might help
The design looks old because IT IS OLD. Aside from minimal changes, the overall external and internal design of the Nitro 5 hasn't changed since it was introduced in 2016, as the successor of the Aspire VX with which it already shared some design cues. That is one of the main reasons why the Nitro 5 is so cheap, its design matrix has been HEAVILY amortized by this point.
Its moderate success (by sales numbers) is also due to the fact it is widely available in emerging markets with the lowest configurations still sporting GTX1050s and HDDs.
Welcome to Acer. Same with the Helios.
Because any acer laptop is for stupid or people with no money
Cry about it lol
@@Vibri_but_Paranoid ye im crying from laughing you are right
@@JakubixIsHere oh same
The price in Canada for this laptop is Effing crazy!
In Indonesia back in 2019, Nitro 5 and 7 were advertised as 144hz 100srgb for all the model except for few model GTX 1650 60hz. That ads was removed since the Nitro 5 of last two year didnt follow its trend. Similar to AMD mocking 4gb vram but now embracing it.
I guess the battery test in light load was a bit wrong cause my friends acer nitro 5 with 3050 i5 12 gen only last 1 and a half hour the reason which he regrets buying this laptop
is there much different between this version and the amd ryzen version?
I own the Best Buy Exclusive Acer Nitro 5 and my only problem with them is that the keyboard is terrible. Acer has a huge issues when it comes to their keyboard, it would just randomly stop working or completely stop working which I have experience from my previous Acer laptop. So now I just use an external keyboard to use the laptop.
Please, review Lenovo ideapad gaming 2022 Intel or amd versión. Those must compete with the acer nitro 5 model.
The one i found is i9 11900+ 3060 at 1220$ do you think it's a good deal?
ACER HELIOS 300 and the DELL G15 SE (3070ti) next please
Hi Bro, I got the older 1650ti with 10th gen i5 yeaj the scree sucks abit but when I plug into my TV and play some games looks great for what it is :)
Honestly, I've been using a Helios Predator 300 I got in 2019 (1660ti, i7-9750, 16gb 3200mhz, 1tb ssd, 144hz/1080p) for $900 brand new on that Black Friday off of Amazon. Sure, it gets hot if I play for a few hours but other than that I haven't seen a reason to upgrade. The fact that it is now being sold on Amazon for $1,200 boggles my mimd.
that price doesnt really mean anything, out of production stock is always priced insanely at amazon. i mean you can find listings for i7 7700k for 400 dollars.
Got the sis an acer 5 a few years back purely for school...bc at the time it was 700$ to get her a 4c8t cpu....and an nvme/ssd...which wound up being an m-sata drive. Just so i knew her system would be fast and snappy. She demolished it by the time she graduated, and i had to give her my MSI which i got in 2019 spring...with the same specs as youre helios, only a pretty trash 120hz panel. At the time i was using it for cs:go/some pve games on a 27" 1080p monitor. So i "upgraded" it bc i gave her my msi...she doesnt even play AAA games just games like among us, friend/party like games. But she told me she liked the "Gamer" red aesthetic and having a fast pc/nvme drive, or having multiple programs open. I snagged an Amoled Omen as an open box deal since i use an external monitor i leaned into having a nice panel on the laptop for content consumption, or playing games like fallen order/nioh. If more laptops had speakers like the zephyrus laptops lately...id "consider" upgrading bc the speakers on those are pretty great and its almost a "TREND" that speaker sound/quality is an afterthought on "gaming" laptops. Yet is quite "PRIME" for content consumption/etc even gaming. Once actually experienced. As someone that mostly uses Headphones id call those(speakers/higher res panel)"upgrades" to laptops ive had, and something id consider down the road for a future laptop.
I bought Nitro 5 i5 12500h global version few months ago. Presently i am facing screen bleeding issue in the display which is not there when i purchased it. So what to do , i am confused and worried.
Did you think how much is the AMD variant?
I currently own an Acer nitro and will be upgrading in the near future. The more I try rationalize getting another one. The more the Lenovo Legion laptop stands out as the one I should get.
id suggest if you have access to a microcenter...the 3060 legion 5 with a 8c cpu and 1tb nvme. its usually on sale for 1099$. And if you need a larger screen they offer at 17". So if you get actual screen time with the panel like actually game on your laptop panel or work on it, id recommend the 17" too over 15". Unless youre leaning into a larger resolution panel or already have an external panel. Then you can still get the 15" legion for more portability. Where i live they have like 20 in stock for 1099$. I pushed my buddy to get one when D2 resurrected launched bc they wanted a new system/laptop and you get a 1tb drive for that price too...The biggest issue ppl have is that its not INTEL if they need thunderbolt support for work purposes. Even if youre budget is "smaller" than 1099 or if youre looking at 800-900$ range laptops i always recommend working/putting a little $ aside per check a few weeks/months down the road you are up to a higher tier/budget range. Just put off some expenses or bunker down as i call it...then get the better option "ALWAYS" of course there are diminishing returns as you go up the laptop/price range of course...but the legion 5 microcenter deal is pretty great bang for buck. I tested the system its pretty decent. IMO in pve games that arent multiplayer/competitive a frame cap 80-120 goes a long way with gpu/cpu thermals and system noise when playing pve/single player games. Also Gen 4 drive support/speed with intel.
@@anhiirr Thanks bro. I couldn't care less about intel and thunderbolt. My next gaming laptop has to have ryzen lol ( a little fanboyism here). The current Nitro 5 I have is the 2019 model with the lame GTX 1050. I mean I made good use of it but I would love to experience my games on higher settings especially with the Star Wars Jedi game I have. Lenovo seems to find the balance between quality and price. Asus Zephyrus looks good but too pricey. So Lenovo it is.
@@dalefrancis9414 i got a ryzen desktop myself im not partial to either side just my wallet...and AAA games with a YT/HULU/Sports stream going on my 2nd screen. Youll enjoy the multitasking/8c cpu on the go. Just make sure it has a MUX...bc when i owned/tested the ZEPH 15....the included panel was off the IGPU...so when i was gaming on an external...with 3070/video out...and watching a stream on the laptop....it was basically a cluster F imo. Even if the Dedicated GPU did all the grunt work....it still had to send code/feed the laptop panel via IGPU.
@@anhiirr Yeah thanks for the advice
Don't buy this laptop. My hinges broke after 2 month and subsequently damaged the screen. I sent it back on warranty and they repaired the hinges and replaced the screen.
After this I sold the laptop at a loss.
1 year down the line I was walking around in curries pc world and saw one of these on display with a broken hinge.
Other than that the laptop was great performance wise but would not recommend this laptop for all the stress it will cause you.
THen just keep laptop fold out not in
Lol at that Peter Griffin wallpaper :D
Extremely happy with my purchase a couple of weeks ago. Bought the Nitro 5 with i7 11800H CPU and RTX 3060 with 32GB RAM and 500GB storage.
I promptly added a second NVME 500 GB drive and 64GB RAM which was the easiest upgrade I have ever done in over 35 years of building PC or upgrading laptops. Super impressed with that. After some tweaking the services and NVidia software I get on average between 40-60 FPS in Star Citizen on Very High quality and volumetric clouds off.
Good job Acer!
If you don't won't encounter any screen issues and bsod, you in luck.
is it still working?😂😂
the memory upgrade is wrong you mentioned, it s not 32 gb, it is 64 gb. And I did tried to install a 32gb ram into a pre existing 8 gb in the other ram slot to make a total of 40gb ram
It’s perfect for anyone waiting for a ps5 that can play a pic port with a controller. The meh panel is better than a TV with respects to lag. Frame rate tax in a laptop won’t bother a console gamer. Streaming quality would be better. There’s available storage for content and game library on a 2.5” ssd. It’s portable, so that’s appeal to less caviar frame rate chasing fps gamers or stupid high champagne quality whatever isn’t an fps.
In the beginning you say that higher end 3060 model is a 140 watt one, but then you show in your benchmarks it only goes up to 100 watts. So which is it?
140W is peak, not sustained.
I don't question the performance but here in our country, the screen issues and bsod are if not often, the problems faced by the users months or even weeks of using nitro.
I got 12650h and 3070ti version. Bought it tor 1lakh . Don't use cooling pad, just a stand to prop it up. Use msi afterburner for gpu undervolting and limit the cpu to 90-95% at maximum in control panel
Aw, man. I have the Best Buy model (AN515-58-5046), and I absolutely LOVE the keyboard. My work laptop is a Dell Latitude, and if I could work on the Acer, I would.
I agree completely. I write a LOT, and all six Acer's I've owned have had really good keyboards, and my new Nitro is the best feeling one yet. I'll just put it down to we're lucky and the rest of these people just don't seem to be. But then, like I said elsewhere, I don't type with hammers like some people must.
Mine is an AN515-57-79TD I got off Amazon. I had considered a Latitude but I'm glad I got my Nitro. Have fun!
So is the zephyrus g14 a better option? I know literally nothing about computers. I want a quality gaming laptop that can pretty much handle anything within this price range. Any response would be appreciated.
Yes it is better, but its price is also much high than this
The base model seems worth it but for $1399 you can get a legion 5 pro with R7 5800H and RTX 3070 in the US
Pls make a video on Asus Rog strix g15 and g17
I love my Acer but I came here to find out if the Acer is compatible with Power Director . I bought Power Director years ago but have no idea how to get it on my Acer because it has no disc drive . I also bought photoshop and IDK if it is compatible with my Acer .
Would you recommend a desktop or a laptop for a video editing constant work and why?
To those who play world of tanks would any of yall suggest this laptop for the game? That's practically the only game I play on PC and so I would like to know if this laptop is good enough to support high if not ultra settings on that game.
a MUCH BETTER Review of the 2022 Nitro 5. no personal bias. I can't find anything 3050 Ti for that BB price range. Anything in the budget range even has worse screen that the Nitro 5. the 3060 model, i agree, there are better options, but for the $800 for the 3050 Ti, I can only find 3050 Ideapad gaming 3s and the wobbly Victus or last gen 3050 Legion 5 Pros. I'd take the Nitro 5.
Where I live in Australia there isn't much bang for buck choice, I got a acer 5 nitro similar specs to the lower model here, except it has all red vents and a weird pattern on the kid, cost me $1600aud
How is this for productivity?
Dell G15 would be even more budget, especially if you live in Canada, would love to see a review on it
I sell those things as a job, G15 is built like garbage, hopefully Asus Tuf series is similarly priced wherever you live.
Just picked up the 3060 version for $750 from Newegg!
Sameee now im watching vids all excited lmao

Please review the new steelseries arctis nova pro wireless headset!
I just got this laptop and it has some rlly good specs for just 799 cad 900 dollars with the tax. It had an rtx 3050 with a intel core i5 12450h processor with 16gb of ram it also came with Microsoft 365 for one month if anyone is wondering I got this one from costco
Great review. Yes, I would buy it.
For a budget desktop replacement, these sound great.
with those prices, I don't think. A 1650 Super or a RX 6400 are much powerful of these mobile cards.
@@MallocFree90 nigga what?
If I'm not mistaken, isn't that a "faulty screen" (screen gone bad) picture at 3:54? lol That's usually what it looks like.
Do you have a review of lenovo ideapad 3 2022?
Can someone tell me what laptops he is talking about at the end?
What loptop is good for war thunder?
I got the older 1650ti with 10th gen i5 yeaj the scree sucks abit but when I plug into my TV and play some games looks great for what it is
Thank god all manufacturer now know that we want I/O in the back for clearance and aesthetic
I just bought the nitro 5 with i5 11400H RTX 3050TI 4GB 16GB of Ram and 512GB of PCI SSD with Windows 11 Home for 879€ what do you think?
Acer nitro or Asus rog strix can you please tell me your opinion ❤
this price point better get an ideapad gaming 3 which does offers you almost everything, especially the Screen estate
IdeaPad 3 Gaming might be better with the same/similar specs
i just want a laptop with i5 12th gen, 3060, and good color accuracy under $1300....it's stupid that for this 1300+ dollars laptop has 66% srgb,.. i should get a older g14 or something
so it does charge with usb type c?
How I wish the prices were about the same here in Mexico, the 3050ti probably it's not getting here and the 3060 it's probably going like 40k pesos (around 2000usd) and my budget it's around 1.2k usd
Yep bought it
I think if you turn up the hz color will be better
even with my 2018 nitro 5 has a great microphone
As a gamer that wants a laptop only for gaming and that also does not wants to spend a lot of money why dont you get a 2021 gaming laptop? its the same gpu with a 10w (rtx 3060) less in a lets say lenovo legion and the main downsides are not having ddr5 memory and the cpu , that anyway was not a bottleneck so why care for gaming if it did the job? id say its a better deal then the compromises that you always have to make with the nitro series
me moving from old school display so you will have better improvement of guessing the right color, btw you can't drag everything upper than it should coz it will affect the end price
Any updates on Lenovo IdeaPad gaming 3 6600H with 3050?
yeah would be interesting!
That's a much better buy than this
@@theplayerofus319 yup
@@swecreations yup
I think the wattage you're giving are total power envelopes, not TGP. According to notebookcheck the 3060 model gpu is 95W+10W boost
We report what we observe.
@@HardwareCanucks Not trying to nitpick - just seems ambiguous at 1:25 and 1:50. Later in the video hands on tests are all great!
I wish they sold a battery upgrade
