The discounted price represents massive $300 savings and is, according to Keepa, a record-low rate for the SKU.

Fortunately, the Acer Nitro 16 should be an excellent buy for most folks at the going rate. In our review of the machine with a weaker Ryzen 7 7735HS but a more powerful RTX 4070, we gave the Nitro 16 a “very good” rating of “89%”. The key factors contributing to this rating were the laptop’s bright 165 Hz panel with G-SYNC and 100% sRGB coverage, 9 hours of battery life in our WLAN websurfing test, and expandable storage thanks to two M.2 slots.

Additionally, the combination of a Ryzen 7 7840HS  and RTX 4060 inside the model on sale should ensure plenty of performance for both gaming and creative tasks. For instance, the RTX 4060 was able to play heavy-hitting titles like Dragon’s Dogma 2, Horizon Forbidden West, and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora at or near 60 FPS with elevated graphics.

All in all, folks who are in the market for a superb mid-range gaming laptop without breaking the bank should take a look at the Acer Nitro 16.
