Reviews for the Acer Nitro 5 AN515-45-R1JH
The Ryzen 7 APU and the GeForce RTX 3070 laptop GPU bring all the latest games smoothly onto the matte QHD display. Because of the low TGP, the GPU performs below its capabilities. The laptop offers space for three storage drives.

Though the Acer Nitro 5 can be had in an admirably wide range of configurations, our $1,699 review unit didn't perform as well as it should have against the Alienware m15 Ryzen Edition R5 and the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro, our top picks for mid- to high-end 15.6-inch gaming rigs. Thus our kick-down from four stars in 2020's tested model to our 3.5-star rating on this one. In its $1,299-and-under guises, however, the Nitro 5 should deliver the expected features and good battery life to remain one of our top budget gaming laptops, and it can even challenge Acer's Predator Helios 300 in overall performance thanks to its strong AMD CPU. Few laptops offer as much value for the money.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

76.1%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
