Overview

Slim gaming laptop

A 16-inch gaming laptop with RTX 5050 or RTX 5060 Laptop graphics and 8 GB of dedicated graphics memory. Its relatively slim body combines a fast screen with a full gaming keyboard.

  • 180 Hz display

    The 1920 × 1200 IPS screen combines a 180 Hz refresh rate with a matte surface and a taller 16:10 workspace.

  • Lighter than rival gaming laptops

    Acer lists 2.1 kg and 19.95 mm. Tom’s Hardware weighed its Ryzen 7 260 and RTX 5060 test unit at 4.55 lb (about 2.06 kg), lighter than the Alienware 16 Aurora (2.56 kg) and Gigabyte Aorus 16X (2.30 kg) it was compared with, so it is easier to carry than those 16-inch rivals.

  • Four-zone lighting

    The keyboard has four-zone RGB backlighting, adjustable through NitroSense.
