Reviews for the Acer Nitro V 15 ANV15-51
Source: ARS Guide
With the Nitro V, Acer is offering a good-budget gaming laptop that delivers where it matters most: game performance. It runs most modern titles at over 60 FPS at 1080p, though you’ll need to turn image quality down a little in the most demanding titles like Fortnite and Cyberpunk 2077. The Intel Core i7-13620H processor, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, and RTX 4050 GPU are impressive, but the battery is mediocre, the same is true for most sub-$1000 laptops, however. The areas where the laptop does falter are easier to deal with than some alternatives, like the thin sound you can get a pair of better-sounding headphones. It’s not terrible, but it’s not particularly great either. For around the same price, the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 looks like fantastic value overall, but if you’re on a tight budget, the Acer Nitro V ANV15-51-73B9 will save you some money.

For the price, we have to applaud the Nitro V 15 on most fronts. Areas that are often major pitfalls in budget builds—the screen and the chassis build quality—are passable here, while it delivers steady 1080p gaming performance at a much lower price than most competitors. The Gigabyte Aorus 15 BMF does just enough to maintain its Editors’ Choice award in the budget gaming category, on the back of a superior build, 1080p webcam, better processor, and slightly faster gaming performance. If saving as much money as possible is your priority, though, the Nitro V 15 ANV15-51-59MT model delivers a similar experience for $150 less.

Overall, the Acer Nitro V 15 left a pleasant impression, as it offers a fairly neutral appearance, has a lot of ports, a fingerprint scanner, and very good performance and battery life. Yes, the matrix could have a wider color gamut, and the speakers, traditionally for such models, are not impressive. However, a sufficient level of performance for high graphics settings and stable operation make such shortcomings quite minor. And given that the cost of flagship laptops can be 4-5 times higher, there's no need to talk about the "downsides" at all.

Acer’s Nitro V 15 is a good budget gaming laptop that delivers what matters most: game performance. It can exceed 60 FPS in a wide variety of games at 1080p, though you’ll need to turn image quality down a notch or two in the most demanding titles. The Nitro V 15’s processor performance is less impressive, its RAM is meager, and its battery life is mediocre, but the same is true for most price-competitive gaming laptops. Ultimately, your buying decision will hinge on price. The Nitro V 15 is solid but doesn’t overachieve, so look for a sale.

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.

68.5%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
