Acer Nitro 16 AMD review: performance on a budget

 

A decent amount of power at a brilliant price

Surprisingly robust 1080p at 165Hz performance ; All configurations have 165Hz refresh rate ; Solid keyboard with RGB backlighting ; Affordable pricing

Has that budget gaming look ; A bit bulky ; Webcam only 720p

The Acer Nitro 16 AMD is not the prettiest gaming laptop out there – it’s a bit bulky as well – but it delivers competent performance even with a 165Hz refresh rate. It’s also on the affordable side of the gaming laptop spectrum. You won’t be wowed by...

Acer Nitro 16 Review: Big, Bright and Brisk Budget Gaming Laptop

 

With a roomy 16-inch, 16:10 display that's surprisingly bright and vibrant and powered by a full-octane RTX 4050 GPU, the Nitro 16 delivers the goods for gamers on tight budgets.

Strong overall performance ; Roomy and bright 16-inch, 16:10 display ; Decent battery life ; Plenty of ports, including USB 4

Bulky and heavy ; Grainy 720p webcam ; Underpowered speakers

Acer Nitro 16 review: a solid all-rounder at a promising price point

 

The Acer Nitro 16 AMD is a bit clunky, but a powerful proposition with good value for money.

Great performance at this price point ; Bright and vibrant 16-inch screen ; Ports galore, including at the rear ; Decent battery life

Design is a little clunky and dated ; Speakers are very basic and lack depth ; Low-quality 720p webcam

While it’s not winning any design awards, Acer’s mid-tier gaming laptop, the Acer Nitro 16, offers some decent specs and great performance at an approachable price point. Not all of its specs are showstopping, with both its webcam and speakers leaving...

Acer Nitro 16 (AN16-42) review – Powerhouse Performance with Cool Internals

 

The Acer Nitro 16 (AN16-42) is a true gaming device with almost zero compromises. The big thermal system cools well the processor and the graphics card – their temperatures under load are low while the frequencies are high. Also, the keyboard gets just...

Great performance ; Covers 100% of the sRGB color gamut and has accurate colors with our “Design and Gaming” profile (AUOCDAB) ; 165Hz refresh rate + wide viewing angles (AUOCDAB) ; No PWM (AUOCDAB) ; Very high max brightness of 548 nits (CSW1437) ;...

The lid could’ve been more stable ; Slow USB 2.0 port on the left side
