arrgentKays doesn't work ( a,c,x,:,arrow up and down, numbers on the right side
To my surprise, this is a quality laptop with great specs that only compare to other brands that charge $1000+ for the same specs
Overall great buy if you want a great mid-range laptop with the best specs in it's price range.
Overall great laptop with good hardware specs for this price range.
They should have worried more about the cooling of the laptop if they are going to call it a gaming laptop, but still for the specs and price not too bad

It runs everything great and has been a great home computer as well as gaming machine
The reason that I started with that list is to illustrate that Acer did a very good job knowing what corners to cut without actually hurting an amazing machine in terms of performance.
online and applying them as appropriate and my machine still has the issue
Let me explain this to those who are looking to get this laptop:This is a great machine
this is a great machine if i needed another laptop i would not hesitate to order this one again

The Keyboard itself does not feel cheap but I would say that most who are used to higher end Keyboards may not enjoy it.
Most of units arrives with defective keyboard "Includes mine"- Bad Screen color " yellowish tent " and dim- Charger disconnects for 2 minutes repeatedly while
it's a solid keyboard for a laptop but weak backlights as expected.
This laptop is perfect!At first, I was concerned about its display and the keyboard getting too hot since many users complained about them
Keyboard is good, in my own opinion the keys are soft and very responsive

Amazon is falsely promoting a more expensive product that will not work with this laptop.
The product is great for gaming, the only issue which i have faced as of now is the Laptop getting hot.
Amazon support really neglected on this matter, this product wasn't delivered as I was expecting, and all Amazon could do was give me a promotional $5 for the inconveniences, no actual resolution
This is a major issue that Amazon needs to be aware of because without this fix, everyone here has a faulty product.
Sadly, a product that is good but lasts 1 month is worth no more than 1 star

so it wobbles a little bit when you put both palms on it, but that's an easy thing to
This is an important one while gaming, yes it does get hot but you wont feel it while gaming as the area is hottest only above the keyboard and a bit hot on the lined up numbers
.I love the design and the material quality, the fans are a bit loud under heavy load, but it is to be expected when you cram power into a relatively small box
Yes the fans are a bit louder than my previous laptop, but they are not excessively noisy.
Also a bit of lagging between programs, unsure as to why this laptop is doing that

buyed this laptop from panama, like it so far, feels pretty solid and no problem so far, the screen isnt very bright but not a big deal and the sounds quuality its pretty good, saw all the negative reviews and i got none of those problem, the keyboard works fine, updated nvidia software throgh geforce experience, runs most game on the highest setting, laptop get hot when gaming so recomend to buy a coolerpad
After reading in 100 reviews that they didn't like the dim scree, I was expecting a horrible dark screen like some cheap chinese tablets
Ignore any reviews about the screen brightness and color not being the best, because I found everything about this Laptop to be first class
It could change this year if you want to see for yourself!- Potential upgrade required for BIOS, or incorrect version of GeForce programs: I saw a couple reviews complaining about this, and just like the most helpful review here, I did not have any hiccups or errors regarding the BIOS problem that another reviewer had
The keyboard is the best one I’ve typed on for a laptop despite the horrible reviews

The only problem I would say is possible heat constraints and or fan noise when gaming at max settings
Unit is also pretty quiet during regular use, I can’t hear any fan noise at all in the office
Fan noise did kick up quite a bit as expected (just like my desktop 970) but the pitch from the laptop is a bit higher so it more noticeable but not distracting unless you have game volume very low.
(Acer Aspire E 15) was a noob compared to this beastly computer

Amazing I bought mine with 1tb hd easy to install runs everything at high-ultra 60fps
(Acer Aspire E 15) was a noob compared to this beastly computer
Also the windows....even with updates , bios, etc it gives MAJOR stutter, it gives 1 sec freeze when doing UAC prompt, when i click on battery icon, so basically the windows gets messed up when u have BOTH intel and NVIDIA display drivers on, If you turn off one of the displays windows works wonderful, When i spoke to Acer they told me disable intel driver permanently... got to be joking right
2.there are usual windows 10 problems, bloatware, unneeded features, and driver and other things not be up to date
Had my unit about 2 weeks, and after a totally clean windows install (I recommend NOT using the drivers on ACER's site, I got notably worse performance and over all useless resource drain, I tried many combinations and as is with a clean install yielded the best results

:)laptop is very good and really I liked it, but one very big issue, missing HDD caddy and Sata cable
you need to go to acer website and order an SATA HDD Caddy (free)3
I7700hqUpgradeable storage and ramDoes stay cool no over heating issues but does get hot in the top middleOne type c and 3.1 usbConsThe build is all thatHard to move around with the 17.3 inch screenDoes get hot in the top middle
I had a hard drive caddy and believe that that issue of the missing ones has been cleared up by now.
And the reason I have 4 star it's because of missing sata connected and caddy

I wouldn't have bought this laptop at all as I'd like to be able to boot Linux distros from the super speedy USB-C or event the USB 3 port.

Frustrating that this new laptop is missing the 2nd hard drive cable and now have to open the laptop to install.
:)laptop is very good and really I liked it, but one very big issue, missing HDD caddy and Sata cable
but it was without caddy HDD and without SATA hard drive cable
