*Battery life is mediocre but if you use it as a gaming desktop alternative you'll keep the power plugged in
*250GB storage (I won't say it's a con exactly because of the price and because its a SSD. But if it was a 250GB HDD then I would list it as a con)
I paid $699 for this laptop. And for the price I paid I'm thoroughly impressed. This computer performs like that of a $800-$1000 computer. Has enough RAM to execute all your programs, 1080p screen, a decent i5 processor and a pretty powerful graphics card for the price. Everyone always worries about needing an i7 processor for gaming but in reality if your graphics card is insufficient having a powerful processor will not compensate for a mediocre graphics card. What people don't realize is an i5 is more than sufficient to game if you have a great graphics card. In comparison to my i7 Lenovo there's really not much difference in performance rather the difference lies in the graphics card. About 4 years ago I paid $1100 for my Lenovo Y50 which had a NVIDIA GTX 860M and an i7 processor. And because it broke I was looking around for a replacement. I was not really expecting much in regards to the graphics card especially because how cheap the laptop was. But surprisingly not only does it perform just as well as my previous laptop, it performs much better (new graphic card architecture and technology) at almost half the cost. At the time the 860m (the graphics card in my previous laptop the Lenovo Y50) was a mid range graphics card for laptops. But back then the laptop version of graphics card (m) was not on par with it's desktop counterpart and in most cases only performed about 40-70% of what it's counterpart could do. But now with the new architecture and technology the laptop counterpart performs at 75-90% of it's desktop counterpart.
The NVIDIA GTX 1050TI although a mid range card performs so much better than mid range cards back in the day. On a side note, if you plan on ordering this laptop make sure that it's the 1050 TI version and not just the plain 1050. The TI version packs a bit more of a punch which does make a difference. Because some people have complained and rated the laptop poorly because they received a 1050 version and not the 1050TI.
My only complaint is, the plastic material in which the chassis is made of vs the metal finish of my previous laptop. The plastic makes it feel cheap (well it is) but obviously it's more of an aesthetics issue than a performance one. Some people complained about the hard drive space being insufficient. To be honest if you're using this computer for anything but gaming the space will be more than sufficient. But if you plan on using it for gaming then the space will run out quickly, but for the price you're paying it's still a steal. Sure it's not a 1TB drive like a lot of standard laptops nowadays but because it's a SSD it will increase the overall speed and performance of your computer unlikes it's HDD counterpart. There is an extra hard drive slot so you can always expand the hard drive with a standard hdd if you're on a budget and need extra space or a 2.5 m sata II SSD if you want extra space with the continued faster performance. If you wish to add another hard drive you have to call Acer and request for an hard drive expansion kit, which they will provide to you free of charge (once you provide them with the laptop's information). Aside from that the only other con is it can be loud sometimes when playing graphic intense games but can be remedied by wearing head phones. The fans although loud does keep the laptop cool despite the plastic chassis.
Overall this laptop is a great purchase. lt packs a powerful punch for the price it goes for and looks nice as well.
Why do I call this "Gamer Lite"? Well because this laptop really only comes with the bare minimum required for a PC gamer. You only get a 256 GB SSD, and 8 GB of RAM. The real excellent upgrade is the GTX 1050 Ti GPU, which is freakin stellar for a PC priced under $1000 USD. Basically, you get everything you need to run most AAA titles at High settings, ON A LAPTOP THAT COSTS $750 USD! 256 GB isn't gonna give you a lot of space for a huge library (obviously) but the fact that it is solid state makes it so quick. Win 10 boots in seconds. Steam opens literally instantly. Instantly! Not exaggerating. Kiss those long load times goodbye.
I did a lot of research before I decided on this laptop, and there are a few reviewers (YouTube and website reviews) out there talking a lot about heat. It is true, this particular laptop doesn't have the best design for cooling, but it is totally fine for normal use. I mean if you want to run a AAA title on Ultra settings for several hours then yeah, your CPU and GPU are gonna get hot and start to degrade. But this thing isn't for that. That's what a maxed out gaming tower with 10 fans and liquid cooling is for. Go buy that if that's what you want to do. I've seen external heat tests on this thing that look totally in line with what you would want from a performance laptop. If it gets hot then that means its time to go outside and talk to people LOL.
Honestly, great value for an excellent setup. Not the best. Not even by far the worst. At this price point your options are quite limited but this is really the best bang for your buck. And also, pretty nice to use just as a PC.
I have yet to be disappointed; I've thrown almost all of the best games I have, including Gaijn's War-Thunder (2013) and Idea Factory's Cyberdimension Neptunia (2017) at this computer, and it handles them almost flawlessly at 1080p on maximum settings; in Cyberdimension Neptunia, which uses the Unreal 4 engine, there are a few hiccups down to 57fps when new effects come into play, but otherwise the system holds stead with barely any noticeable noise or heat; Warthunder never drops below about 77FPS. This is the machine you want if you want a budget gaming laptop that truly lives up to the advertising hype; the Nvidia GTX 1050Ti will be able to handle most items coming out within the next few years on medium-high settings at 1080p for at least the next 3-5 years.
With that said, the computer gets four rather than five stars for a couple of reasons. First, because while the chassis is solid and well made, the IPS screen itself is a bit dim, and the plastic frame for it feels a bit fragile; it's certainly not made of as durable a material as the actual chassis. Second, because the audio seems a bit off; while this is a function of the extra subwoofer/ bass settings they seem to have added to the audio card, it makes the audio a bit less clear than on my older computer, an HP Envy 17 S143CL model, which was purchased for $800 in December 2016.

Tiene buen sonido, puede correr cualquier juego, tal vez los mas recientes no en ultra pero en medio - alto si.
Una de las mejores laptops de esta gama sin duda superando a todas las demas marcas en el mismo precio, yo la consegui por $15,000 mexicanos, una ganga tomando en cuenta que las otras laptops tienen la tarjeta GTX 1050 y esta te ofrece por menos dinero un SSD decente y una GTX 1050 Ti 4G.
Crei que por ser importada no iba a poder usar la letra ñ pero mi sorpresa fue que basta con cambiar el idioma del teclado y la tecla al lado de la [L] se vuelve la ñ, una maravilla
Gracias a su SSD y demas componentes en 5 segundos ya encendio y estoy en windows.
Si estas prensando en comprar una Gaming Laptop barata y potente esta es tu opcion.
Cosas malas? Si, pero por parte de DHL, me querian cobrar otra vez impuestos aduanales afortunadamente hable con Amazon por telefono y en menos de 10 minutos se pusieron en contacto con el vehiculo y tuve la laptop en mis manos.
Una ultima cosa es que se mancha con facilidad, pero nada que un paño no solucione.
el negrito en el arroz, como en mis últimos 5 pedidos ha sido la paqueteria, que oootra vez es dhl y llego con un golpe y en la aduana le sacaron la funda que venia de regalo, pero tomando en cuenta como es mexico, me doy de santos que llego en una sola pieza y solo me secuestraron el equipo durante un dia en guadalajara, por 62 pesos.
se que no es culpa de amazon, pero los secuestros en aduana y las carcasas dañadas por dhl han sido siempre un problema en mis pedidos.
i pueden conseguir el equipo por amazon prime o con otra paquetería, es una recomendadisima compra, pero pidan que por favor no se los manden por dhl.
El empaque llegó en perfecto estado y un día antes de lo previsto

El empaque llegó en perfecto estado y un día antes de lo previsto
Es muy buen producto y efectivamente tiene las caracteristicas que ofrece el vendedor. Inmediato llegó, le puse una unidad de disco extra.
El precio es muy bueno y la PC esta perfecta para un buen rendimiento en juegos, obviamente con sus delimitaciones respectivas dada su arquitectura, mas que nada de la tarjeta de video, pero hasta ahora he probado juegos como The Evil within, Hellblade, Battlefield 1 y Fortnite, todos los corre en gráficos al máximo y prácticamente a 60 fps, excepto hellblade que con graficos al máximo levanta alrededor de 30 y 45 fps.
En cuestión del envio no tuve problemas con nada, no llego maltratada la caja o cosas por el estilo. Todo estuvo correcto en ese ámbito.
