Verdict
With the Nitro V14 AI, Acer has a particularly compact gaming laptop in its portfolio. The Nitro V14 AI looks fresh thanks to the white chassis and immediately catches the eye, although there is still room for improvement in terms of stability.
The input devices and connections make a good impression, but they aren't necessarily the best in this class.
You shouldn't expect top performance from the Nitro V14 AI either. The installed GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card's TGP is limited to 60 W, which is somewhat below its capabilities.
While gaming, and sometimes even in idle, the Nitro V14 AI can still get quite loud, which is why we would like to see a better, more potent cooling system or improved fan control for its successor.
That being said, there are plus points for the expandable or replaceable RAM and SSD, as the Nitro V14 AI has two SO-DIMM banks and two fully-fledged M.2 slots.
The IPS display is not particularly bright at around 300 cd/m² but should otherwise meet the requirements of most buyers.
The absolute highlight of this 14.5-inch laptop, however, is its generous battery life. The device lasted nearly 13 hours in our Wi-Fi test — an excellent value that is better than almost all competitors.
Pros
Cons
Price and availability
The reviewed Acer Nitro V14 AI ANV14-62-R9LT is available for around €1,150 at various online stores such as notebooksbilliger.de. While this exact configuration is not yet available, a Nitro V16 AI with Ryzen 5 240 and RTX 5050 can be had for $799 on Amazon US.
Speaking of the competition, the Acer Nitro V14 AI's rivals include inexpensive gaming laptops up to 15 inches, which feature an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop or RTX 5060 Laptop such as the HP Victus 15 and the Lenovo LOQ 15.
Additionally, there is a current but more expensive mid-range reference Lenovo Legion 5 in the comparison tables as well as the equally more expensive XMG Core 15.
We have hardly tested 14-inch laptops with an RTX 5000 GPU, with the exception of the Razer Blade 14 and the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 with the significantly more powerful RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti, respectively.
Specifications
Chassis
Visually, the chassis cuts a very good figure. We would describe the design as successful, and fingerprints are not really an issue due to the light color.
However, the workmanship could have been more stable. Some surfaces give way noticeably under stronger pressure, especially as Acer relies entirely on plastic.
A 1.7 kg weight is neither low nor very high for a 14.5-inch gaming laptop. By comparison, the more stable and higher quality Blade 14 weighs just about 0.1 kg less. The competition from Razer is also thinner at 16.2 mm vs. 21.9 mm for the Nitro V14 AI.
The Blade 14 also wins in terms of basic dimensions, although this is primarily due to the slightly smaller screen diagonal (14 inches vs 14.5 inches). That being said, compared to typical 15-inch laptops, the Nitro V14 AI still looks compact.
Connectivity
Acer has equipped the Nitro V14 AI with two USB-A ports and a modern USB Type-C port that supports the USB4 standard. There is also an HDMI 2.1 port, a 3.5 mm audio jack, and an opening for Kensington locks.
The card slot is available as a microSD variant. The performance of the card reader is similar to that of the Nitro V16 and only offers USB 2.0-level speeds.
Our test device uses the MediaTek RZ616 Wi-Fi 6E chip, which achieves decent values when transmitting and excellent values when receiving.
The Nitro V14 AI's Full HD webcam is a tad sharper than that of many competitors, although as usual you shouldn't be expecting miracles in terms of image quality. The same applies to the color accuracy as well.
In order to access the inner workings, seven Phillips screws have to be loosened, and the underside levered out of its anchoring (the latter step is not quite as simple).

Input devices
As is often the case, the layout of the keyboard is a matter of taste. There are various special keys on the right edge for multimedia controls and for opening the manufacturer's software.
We find the key size to be appropriate with the exception of the Function row, and the typing feel of the rubber dome switches is passable though not particularly impressive. The touchpad also gets a "usable" rating from us.
The touchpad's 12.6 cm x 7.8 cm surface area is more than respectable by 14-inch standards, although we would have liked a slightly more slippery finish.
Display
Acer has opted for a 16:10 display with a 1920 x 1,200 resolution for this model. The more expensive variants offer up to 2,560 x 1,600 pixels.
While the luminosity of around 312 cd/m² is just about average, the display covers nearly 100% of the sRGB color space. This is a larger coverage than both the Nitro V16 and Victus 15, for example.
Viewing angles, response times, black levels, and contrast are again unspectacular and meet the expectations of an IPS panel. A positive aspect is that the colors are already well balanced out of the box.

Processor
The AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 is equipped with six Zen 5 cores, which can process up to 12 threads in parallel via SMT.
In the benchmark run, the performance cannot be distinguished from the old Ryzen 5 240 of the Nitro V16 and is even slightly lower.
However, the Nitro V14 AI's Ryzen AI 5 340 outperforms the Core i5-13420H in the Victus 15.

Gaming performance
The Nitro V14 AI surpasses the Victus 15 but falls behind the Nitro V16 in gaming tests. Generally, the RTX 5050 delivers enough power to run most titles at 1080p with high, if not always maximum details.
In extreme cases, such as the extremely poorly optimized Borderlands 4, you should fall back on features such as upscaling and/or frame generation.
With DLSS Quality enabled at 1,920 x 1,080 resolution and the High preset, the frame rate increases from 29 fps to 46 fps. Enabling MFG 4x theoretically boosts the frame rate to even 126 fps, although subjectively the perceived frame rate is not quite as high.

Emissions
Noise emissions
Acer still needs to improve the fan control and the cooling system. In the Performance mode, the Nitro V14 AI's fan noise is already noticeable in idle, reaching 28 db(A) to 35 dB(A).
In Cyberpunk 2077, fan noise is clearly audible and disturbingly loud 56 dB(A) without a headset. All competitors remain quieter here (46 to 55 dB(A)).
We would rather recommend the Balanced mode for everyday use, as it hardly impacts performance but generally ensures a significantly lower noise level.

Temperature
As is the case with many laptops, the bottom of the chassis heats up slightly more than the top.
In the stress test, we were able to measure a maximum of 45 °C at the top and 51 °C at the bottom, which corresponds to quite high values, although some competitors get even hotter (see table below).
In idle, the entire chassis remains cooler than 30 °C, which is commendable.
(±) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 45 °C / 113 F, compared to the average of 40.4 °C / 105 F, ranging from 21.2 to 68.8 °C for the class Gaming.
(-) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 51 °C / 124 F, compared to the average of 43.2 °C / 110 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 24.4 °C / 76 F, compared to the device average of 33.9 °C / 93 F.
(±) 3: The average temperature for the upper side is 35.8 °C / 96 F, compared to the average of 33.9 °C / 93 F for the class Gaming.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 24 °C / 75.2 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(+) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.9 °C / 84 F (+4.9 °C / 8.8 F).

We have continuously developed our test methods for around 20 years and set industry standards in the process. In our test labs, high-quality measuring equipment is utilized by experienced technicians and editors. These tests involve a multi-stage validation process.
