While it's not the most powerful gaming laptop around, it's a brilliant performer — and at this price it's very competitive. Most gaming laptops under £1,000 cut a few too many corners to keep the price low in our opinion.
However, the Acer Nitro 5 packs hardware and features that other budget gaming laptops can only dream about, like the fast 144Hz refresh rate for smooth and responsive gaming.
