Acer tried to make a decent gaming laptop in all reds along with plastic chassis. Let's have a detailed look.
Let's break down this review into a few important aspects which you can consider for purchasing.
1. BUILD QUALITY
This laptop is mostly built from plastic and Acer gave it nice metal-like finish with major red color. The only con in the build, is the lid being very flexible. But, this should not be an issue if you handle it carefully. The overall build quality is great.
2. DISPLAY
Nitro 5 comes with 15.6" FHD IPS panel which is said to have no problems with viewing angles, but under the sun, it's hard to see the screen at the even full brightness (by the way, who's sitting in the bright sun for gaming? :P). The maximum resolution is 1920x1080. The screen is big enough for gaming at full stretch.
3. PERFORMANCE
This is the most important part of a laptop to be considered. Acer though aggressively priced this piece, has tried to fit in some decent performing hardware inside. In the Indian market, you have options of -
- Intel Core i5-7300HQ | Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 (Titan) / 4GB GDDR5- Intel Core i5-8520U | Nvidia GeForce MX150 / 2GB GDDR5
- Intel Core i7-7700HQ | Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 (Titan) / 4GB GDDR5
- Intel Core i7-8550U | Nvidia GeForce MX150 / 2GB GDDR5
On any model, you can have fast performance as there option of 8GB / 16GB of DDR4 RAM, which you can expand to a 32GB maximum. The processors included are very efficient in multitasking and will boost up in the gaming segment too. However, the MX150 GPU will struggle with many modern AAA title games at high settings, but it should play most of the games at low/medium settings at FPS ranging between 30-60.
Check out the detailed benchmarks and gaming performance:
- Nvidia GeForce MX150
- Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 (Titan)
The benchmarks and the gaming performance of the two GPUs should give you an idea of its gaming performance.

STORAGE
As for the storage part, in the Indian Market, you'll get up to 1TB 5400RPM HDD and 128GB SSD in some variants. The HDD might be bottlenecking, but it should be fairly fast enough for your daily storage needs if you cannot afford the variant with an SSD. Though 128GB SSD is not enough for all your gaming stuff, it can just boot up your laptop faster and if you use SSD for some games, the in-game loading time becomes faster.

Right
On the left:
- Kensington Security Slot
- RJ45 Ethernet Port
- USB 3.1: Type C

On the right:
- 135W Charging Slot
- 2 x USB 2.0 Ports

On the inside:
- 802.11ac wireless LAN
- Gigabit LAN
The overall connectivity port selection on this laptop is good. You've got USB Type-C for much speedy file transfers, USB 3.0 provides a fast interface for an external hard drive. Rest everything is all there to back you up for all your requirements.
5. BATTERY
Nitro 5 packs 48W or 3220 mAH Lithium ION battery, which isn't at all sufficient for the gaming needs, but using it for casual purposes like video streaming, documentation work, the battery should last around 4-5 hours. It is suggested to keep the charger connected so as to get going.
You can have a quick gaming review video by LinusTechTips down below.
When a player goes over 21, the hand "breaks" and loses routinely. When players are glad with their palms, they'll "stand" . This is indicated by a slight horizontal motion with their hand, palm down over the format. Players make their bets, 1xbet then vendor begins the sport. Two playing cards are dealt to each player face up with two to the vendor, one face up and one face down. Ultimately, the item of the sport is to carry playing cards that complete or come close to 21 to beat the vendor who attempts the same goal.
