Not bad for that price. Something about that screen looks a bit odd...I can't put my finger on what's wrong with it.

The 144Hz screen is more for marketing hype when the GPU can not get anywhere near that refresh rate. Maybe it have been better with a slow but higher quality screen?

Of course no AMD option, as then you would see how short battery time is with Intel vs AMD.

What are you talking about? The monitor refresh rate had nothing to do with the GPU capability

Why would you compare it's weight to a competitor's 17 inch laptop, when they also have 15 inch model? Very strange.

Yes the GPU does not change the refresh rate of the panel, but if the GPU can not keep up with the refresh rate of the panel it is kind of wasted.

Will I be able to comfortably edit 4k video on this laptop?

Why does it sound that I made a mistake buying this device :/

What exactly do you dislike about this laptop model?

While the price is decent, I feel the fact that Acer consistently uses some low brightness and color contrast display is quite annoying. From what I recall, Acer's Nitro and entry Helios series all uses low end displays despite the 120/144hz refresh rate. At least give people the option to get a same model with a better display, etc.

I agree with you about the quality of Acer laptop displays. But that's why the price of these laptops is attractive. Every medal has two sides.

I have the exact same laptop with core i7 10th gen. Just one that bothers me is while the CPU temps go upto 96 degrees. The T-junction is 100 degrees, anybody who can recommend the best possible solution to this???

Absolutely no. It can barely handle HD resolution and makes the programs crash
