It’s a very nice computer with moderate performance. It works exactly how it’s priced. Think of ‘get what you pay for’ in this package. It’ll play games well enough without hiccups if everything is on medium settings for newer games, and very smoothly on semi-older games with high settings.
Do not expect to play games such as Body Cam. It’s doable, but the framerate is <30 and sometimes it'll look like a slidehsow if it feels like it doesn't wish to work that hard. It's been a mixed bag between each match.
It took it a moment to properly ‘wake up’ when first getting it. Booting up the thing and getting everything set up may take a moment, but once you have it kicking, it’ll keep up with your pace. Heat isn’t too bad so far, putting it through a few things and it has gotten warm, but not hot.
The weight isn’t bad. Though don’t take my word for it, it’s my first laptop.
Now here comes that ‘but’ part. Battery life is pretty much nonexistent. Keeping it off the charger and playing any type of game destroys the battery life. Fully charged, use the computer, unplugged, and the thing warned me about an hour fifteen minutes in that the battery is nearing it’s end. Check the battery itself and it says “5%” and it has 6min of life left. So think of each percentile being ~1min of battery.
Other than that 4/5,
TL;DR: Medium price for Medium rig, Battery life abysmal without it plugged in. 1% = ~1min

Let me preface by saying the last time I purchased a new laptop was in 2005 (Acer Aspire 3000) and while tablets are nice for on the go, my digital life was a hot mess. I needed something that wasn’t wafer thin flimsy and that didn’t cost an arm and a leg. I am by no means a gamer, nor do I play PC games but I was still looking for a laptop that had some heft to it. I stumbled across this one mainly because it was suggested by amazon and the price seemed right even though its a 2021 model. After reading reviews and comparing bewteen this and the similar price/spec Acer Nitro, I chose this one because upgrading the RAM and adding an additional SSD drive wouldn’t require a doctorate in computer science.
As far as upgrades are concerned I also purchased the crucial 64GB (2x32gb) set as well as a 2TB Crucial NVMe SSD drive when I ordered this as mentioned by an earlier reviewer. The install took all of 10 minutes to pop the back cover off and slip in the new RAM/SSD modules and I was ready to fire this baby up. I figured I would just max the RAM (64GB) and beef up the storage and be done with it so opening the back cover wouldn’t be necessary any time soon.
Initial setup was pretty straightforward with Windows 11 and once I got to the home screen I got into the settings and performed all the necessary windows updates as well as the updates for the bundled Asus graphics software. Aside from the McAfee antivirus and the Microsoft 365 trial programs, there was no other bloatware to be found. Once those were uninstalled I was able to customize settings to my liking.
The laptop comes as advertised, I wasn’t expecting 15 USB ports on this nor do I require that many. The keyboard is very nice and is a full size with a slightly smaller than normal 10 key number pad. Keys are nice and clicky, not mechanical but also not a mushy membrane either. The backlit keys are a nice touch and can be customised to your liking as long as it’s all the same color. It has about four different modes for pulsing lights or strobe or just on always. The trackpad is great and has the physical right and left mouse buttons and it is mostly centered so you dont brush the trackpad when typing.
Out of curiousity I tried the online benchmark test to see how this machine ranked, and surprisingly with the RAM upgrade it ranked in the 92 percentile range (see photos) and the graphics were very smooth ranging anywhere from high 60’s to 130 FPS on ultra settings.
As mentioned I am not a PC gamer but hopefully this information will be helpful for those that do partake. I may run some console emulators at some point, but for now I’ll just be enjoying the soft glow from the keyboard lighting.

Creo que ha sido una gran compra pues la relación calidad precio tienes una computadora decente que por lo menos, no se traba. No uso software de diseño, pero si estadístico que también requiere de muchas operaciones por segundo y hasta ahora,se ha portado bien.
También le he instalado un par de mis juegos favoritos de Steam y se ha portado bien. Se puede jugar sin problemas.
Y como recomendación, si pueden invertirle 7n poco más para expandirle la memoria, que aguanta hasta 32 Gb, y añadirle un Segu do disco duro M.2, no duden en hacerlo. Mejore su desempeño y después de haberle añadido memoria y disco, su desempeño mejoró. No diré que es como de película, pero ya se puede trabajar bien.
El único problema que le veo, es el acabado, que siempre hay que limpiarla porque se nota cuando la tomas, porque se queda la grasa de las manos

La mejor laptop qué he tenido, no sé calienta no hace ruido. Para juegos la ocupo muy poco, pero para programar y hacer proyectos de automatización esta excelente, jalando al 1000% desde más del año y medio.

Después de un mes de uso puedo decir que es un excelente equipo, tenía mis dudas respecto al procesador, pero aun con los 8 GB de RAM con los que viene, puede correr juegos AAA sin problema.
Lo que definió mi decisión por este equipo, es su opción modular, puedes ampliar la RAM hasta 64 y tiene 2 ranuras para SSD M2, lo cual ayuda a que se mantenga vigente mucho tiempo.
El único detalle que tiene, que es entendible, es la duración de la batería, si quieres un rendimiento óptimo para juegos debe de estar conectada a la corriente, ya que activa el modo turbo, pero en modo performance puede correr bastante bien 1 o 2 horas.
En conclusión, magnífico equipo en relación precio desempeño.

After using my laptop for a few months, I can say that this laptop is a great quality choice for gaming. It runs great for most games, loads fast, has multiple ways of monitoring performance, and is overall an amazing choice if you’re on a bit of a budget for a PC gaming. It’s resistant to overheating due to the multiple fans in the system which will turn on automatically when it needs to, but you can also adjust the mode of the fans with just a button. The sound quality is like any other laptop, but just a bit better.
Additionally, as a college student, I’m always on my laptop for school work/documents/videos, and I never have any issues using my laptop for everyday tasks like writing papers/e-mails. It runs great and almost never lags, even with all the different apps and things I have downloaded.
Overall, I 100% recommend if you’re looking for a laptop to get into gaming with and it’s in your budget!

Gran equipo, sobre saliente el programa que desconecta la batería para garantizar más vida a la batería. Sin duda una gran compra a meses de haberla adquirido.

Like I said I bought this a year or two ago and still plays most current games well. BUT!!! DO upgrade the sodimm ram with a 32gb stick and get a 2.5+ TB hard drive upgrade!!!! Some games are 500GB and 40gb of ram makes many games and applications run buttery smooth. The process is easy and cost effective. So plan for that in the cost.

Doing great so far, i obviously had to upgrade the ram/memory whatever you wanna call it lol i play rust and it functions well graphics are amazing to me, price is decent for a starter laptop for gaming easy to navigate its actually a really impressive pc, but upgrade the memory capacity and its even better, color is great keyboard lights are cool idk what else to say im old so dont take much to impress me with new tech but id recommend this pc to any one its fast as heck and quite battery is still lacking but i think thats most laptops lol but overall i really dig it and if you know rust then you know it dont take much to crash your pc so thats a huge win for this pc i put in 2 16gb memory sticks for 36 gb it runs flawlessly. Happy gaming!
