Ninkear A15 Plus Laptop Review: Surprisingly good and affordable
The number of Chinese laptop manufacturers is hard to keep track of. Ninkear is one of them, offering mainly inexpensive laptops with a high-quality casing. The laptops on offer don't usually have the latest hardware inside, but as our test will show, even an AMD Ryzen 7 5700U from 2021 has enough power for everyday use in 2024.
The Ninkear A15 Plus comes with 16 GB or 32 GB RAM, a 15.6-inch IPS panel, QWERTY keyboard, and plenty of accessories. This affordable laptop from China also comes with a laptop bag, mouse, and mouse pad in the box.
Possible competitors in comparison
We have selected laptops from two different groups as competitors — the Asus P1511CEA and HP 250 G9 that are also priced in the €500 region, and the Schenker VIA 15 Pro and Eurocom C315 Blitz that are significantly more expensive but have similar features to our test device.

Case and equipment: Aluminum lid and base
At first glance, the casing of the Ninkear A15 Plus looks very high-quality. The lid and base of the laptop are made of aluminum, while the keyboard cover is made of painted plastic. However, the manufacturer has matched the color so precisely that you can't tell the difference in material just by looking at it. The fact that the palm rests and the legal B-cover are made of plastic also has some advantages.
The surfaces do not heat up as quickly as aluminum and are much more pleasant to the touch, even when warm. A disadvantage here is more likely to be durability. Even the best paint wears off over time.
Overall, the quality of the casing is okay. The screen can be opened smoothly up to 180° without the hinges feeling wobbly. The keyboard can only be pressed in minimally and the laptop also has good stability in other respects. The manufacturer knows how to hide the fact that the gaps on the casing are sometimes not quite perfect with deliberately chosen shadow gaps.
The large screen and large keyboard immediately catch the eye when the laptop is opened. Ninkear makes full use of the space in the case and includes a keyboard with a NUM block and full-size keys.
The laptop's connectivity is adequate. Contrary to the German-language quick guide, the USB Type-C port on the left-hand side offers all amenities including DisplayPort and Power Delivery.
Why the manufacturer doesn't mention the Power Delivery function is not clear to us. Power Delivery can be useful as this allows operating the Ninkear A15 Plus on a docking station, and the laptop's power supply unit with round plug can also be left at home.
Unfortunately, we see some problems with the microSD card reader and Wi-Fi. Like the processor, the Wi-Fi chip in the Ninkear A15 Plus is rather old silicon. It does not support Wi-Fi 6 or 6E. As a result, the transmission speeds here are correspondingly poor.
The Wi-Fi throughput is sufficient for surfing, but you need to be patient if you want to move large files in the network. The same applies to the slow microSD card reader. This also has the problem that it is possible to push the memory card into the housing past the slot. In a worst-case scenario, you will then have to unscrew the laptop to retrieve it!
The 720p webcam and the mono microphone are usable, but they are not of the best quality. They can be used for a quick video call at home, but it is better to rely on an external webcam if you often take part in video conferences.
Overall, the performance of the card reader, webcam, and WLAN module is just about adequate. Devices in the €500 price range aren't too different either.

Maintenance, warranty, and scope of delivery
Eleven Phillips screws secure the aluminum base and can be easily removed. Underneath, we find plugged-in RAM and an M.2 NVMe SSD. Unfortunately, the slow WLAN module comes soldered. Depending on the retailer, the laptop comes with either a twelve-month or a two-year warranty.
Our Ninkear A15 Plus came with a laptop bag, a USB mouse, and a mouse pad. Stickers for different keyboard layouts were also included.
Input devices: Great keyboard, poor touchpad
The illuminated keyboard of the Ninkear A15 Plus is really good. It comes with full-size keys, including the numeric keypad. The key travel of 1.4 mm is appropriate and feels crisp. Unfortunately, the laptop is only available with a US layout, i.e. a QWERTY keyboard in ANSI format.
This means that it is not easy to switch to the QWERTY layout in ISO format. Although the manufacturer supplies keyboard stickers for various languages, the German keyboard layout has one more key than the laptop offers. This makes it easier to get used to the US International layout.
Although the large touchpad offers multi-touch input, it had its problems with key presses in our test. It can happen that the mouse pointer jumps. Fortunately, the manufacturer also provides a mouse as an alternative. Also, the problem disappeared after a few updates as we discovered shortly before the review was published. The large touchpad now works perfectly.
Display: Full HD IPS
With its full HD resolution at 60 Hz, Ninkear A15 Plus's display is unfortunately not suitable for anything other than basic office use. The low blue light display is not very color accurate and also leaves a lot to be desired in terms of brightness. It is not possible to attain a brightness more than 250 cd/m².
However, the screen does not flicker, the response times are okay, and the illumination of the viewing angle-stable IPS panel is relatively even. Subjectively, the image quality of the laptop screen is good. However, the device is indubitably not suitable for professional use as a graphic designer.

The display of the Ninkear A15 Plus has low blue light emissions, but accordingly has slight red tint out-of-the-box. Average ColorChecker DeltaE 2000 values improve somewhat after calibration with our X-Rite i1Pro 3 spectrophotometer and Calman Ultimate color calibration software from Portrait Displays.

Thanks to the matt display surface and good contrast, the laptop can be used outdoors to some extent.
Performance: Suitable for everyday use despite underpowered Ryzen 7
The AMD Ryzen 7 5700U is more of a legacy silicon, but with 8 Zen 2 cores and 16 threads, the processor can still offer impressive performance. Our test device also comes with 16 GB of RAM.
The Ninkear A15 Plus is also available in a configuration with 32 GB DDR 4 RAM. This is plugged in. However, the test device only has space for one SO-DIMM. This is therefore a single-channel configuration.
Test conditions
Ninkear does not install any performance control software, so the only performance control possible is via the levels offered by Windows. We tested the laptop in "Best performance" mode. The Ryzen 7 5700U is supplied with 30 W of boost power and 15 W of continuous power. Both values are relatively low in comparison. But due to the low TDP, the laptop can usually work silently or very quietly.
Processor
Laptops in the €500 price range usually come with an Intel Core i3 or a Ryzen 3 processor. Some even only come with an Intel N-series processor. The Ryzen 7 5700U in the Ninkear A15 Plus is thus significantly more powerful, even though it runs at a comparatively low TDP.
On the other hand, the laptop remains very quiet, and the processor performance is more than sufficient for everyday use with surfing, streaming, and office work. The multi-core performance of the AMD processor is still very relevant and can also compete with the likes of the Intel Core i7-1360P, although it lags severely behind the new Intel Core Ultra 7 155H.

Storage devices
The NVMe SSD from Gofatoo installed in the test device is connected via a PCI Gen 3.0 interface. It has corresponding data transfer speeds, but these are more than sufficient for an office laptop.
In terms of read speeds, the SSD is roughly on a par with the Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus, which can be found in the Schenker Via 15 Pro, among others.
