I found an acer nitro 5 with 1440p display and an RTX 3070ti for a crazy price around ~1000$. It sounds too good to be true and I suspect aggressive corner cutting. Is it an actual crazy good deal? Should I buy it? Should I leave it and keep looking for ASUS deals?

Laptop in question: https://www.amazon.in/dp/B0C5R13NGB/?psc=1

Seems like a pretty good deal, and it’s actually being sold by the Amazon Acer store, so it’s not a shady 3rd party retailer. Acer historically hasn’t been well known for quality, but they have gotten better over the years. It’s a lot of laptop for that price. They may be trying to offload 12th Gen devices as the 13th Gen refresh is right around the corner.

So, go for it? Is looking for ASUS for their 90Wh battery and better build worth it? (Looks like they have a premium price tho)

If I’m looking for better build at value prices it’d be a Lenovo Legion, not any Asus.

Go for it

I also picked up a similar one for a similar deal

Only deal breaker was a poor trackpad, poor battery, and very heavy. But performance was very good for the price
