    • I would recommend this laptop to anyone who wants good graphics for their video games as well as super performance for complicated software
    • This is a really nice laptop, graphics, sound and overall performance is great.
    • Excellent performance
    • 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
    • Outstanding performance from GTX 1060-6GB and i7-7700HQ
    • It always been a big problem of laptops, there was just not enough power in those tiny boxes to really give user a great performance for their money
    • Performance to price ratio is far better than I anticipated when I set out to purchase a new laptop.
    • Great overall performance and hardware
    • The performance in most games is very good, even on high or ultra settings.
    • The laptop has a great performance
    • Performance is very good, but the 2nd hd drive place missing sata cable and cover
    • Highly recommended for the gamer who wants mobility as well as performance
    • If you want a somewhat portable gaming laptop with good specs and excellent performance, I would definitely recommend this
    • Though the screen may lack the contrast that make colors pop out, it is still an IPS panel, meaning that it will have great viewing angles and sufficient performance as a gamer
    • Great performance, great value.

    • The performance of the computer and build quality is excellent
    • Impressive specifications and performance
    • Hi i bought this laptop and made a review and benchmark of this laptop and posted it on youtube(youtube name is SimbionicTitan), it provides very good gaming performance on all games but it does lack hardrive space but you cant expect more for 999$.(the price I bought it at)Very nice price for performance and price for specifications
    • Great performance when plugged through wall socket run most games 60 fps 1080p but beware if you use it on battery performance drop to unplayable frame rate.2
    • Great performance and overclocking for intense gaming is no issues at all
    • no other laptop comes close to the specs this one offers(GTX1060 6GB + 16GB ram + 256gb ssd)-Excellent performance , once again those specs with the paired 1080p screen will allow you to play all your heart desires at max or near max
