Basically, the best budget computer. Yeah, including Desktops.
You're telling me I can buy a gaming computer that outperforms AND replaces Xbox, can be used on the go, and only costs 800$?? That's amazing. Gaming laptops have never been more affordable, and powerful, all at once. Half the price of your standard gaming laptops, without the assembly of a gaming desktop.
Enough gushing, though. It's not perfect. At this price, you can play generally any of the standard games with only minor problems. I played Halo Infinite and Modern Warfare well, loading faster than my Xbox buddies, but some menu navigation issues here and there were difficult to ignore. These games themselves run very well, but really push your computer's GPU, which means don't expect to play high end games for long without charging. That is to be expected.
The material that makes this computer aren't the best, but good for the money. It's not the most delicate computer, but maybe don't go crazy and throw it or spill anything on it. It's a bit heavy if you plan to vibe out in bed or on the couch. Definitely don't game with this thing on your lap. Keyboard is so-so. Maybe don't eat over this computer unless you are okay with crumbs in the keyboard. Speakers are fantastic in my opinion. You can connect some Bluetooth speakers or earphones easily if you think otherwise.
The AN515 model, the cheaper 800$ish you're likely looking at, you'll gonna lacking in RAM and SSD memory. It's not the end of the world...who am I kidding? 250gb SSD? That's way to small! Maybe consider the models with more RAM and Storage. They can run between 1000-1200$, but if you can afford it, or upgrade the RAM and storage yourself, it makes a world of difference. The most you'll need is an external HDD, which is maybe 80$ for 1tb. Still cheaper than most laptops and desktops.
The Nitro 5 is definitely the best computer for a budget or if you're starting out and want a computer you can play right out the box. This can replace your Xbox, or a spare Xbox when you have friends over. This plays the majority of PC games at good resolution and framerate. As a casual laptop for websurfing, videos, programming, Photoshop, you're in good hands, and can be easily upgraded if RAM or memory is an issue. Think of it as a portable desktop, or even a portable Xbox. You won't be disappointed, especially at this price. Great for newcomers.
