    Acer Aspire 5 (A515-57 / A515-57G) in-depth review

    Acer is looking to supercharge its Aspire 5, and boost its chances against the IdeaPad 5s and the Vivobooks of the world. It is paired with a 12th Gen ULV processor by Intel. This could take on the Zen 3-equipped everyday notebooks out there.However, there is something else about the machine. Recently, NVIDIA released the RTX 2050 - its most affordable ray-tracing capable mobile graphics card. And it can be found in the G-version of this device.Unfortunately, there was no such device in the store in our area, so we had to settle for a non-G model. Nevertheless, it has an extremely low[...]

    Acer Nitro V 16 (ANV16-41) in-depth review

    The gap between the Acer Predator devices and their Nitro siblings is getting smaller year after year. This is quite good, but some Nitro machines aren't budget offerings anymore since they are full of powerful hardware and other useful extras. Not all hope is lost because the V-series of the Nitro lineup is striking the laptop market with devices that boast modern hardware at a fair price. In 2023, we saw that the Acer Nitro V 15 (ANV15-51) is a well-performing machine with some compromises here and there. Specs-wise, the Nitro V 16 (ANV16-41) looks even better with its Zen 4 Hawk Point-HS C[...]

    • The fans aren't too noisy even in "Turbo" mode

    Cons

    • The lid could be more stable

    MSI Cyborg 15 (A12Ux / A12Vx / A13Ux / A13Vx) in-depth review

    Right from the get-go the MSI seems to overhype their Cyborg 15 (A12V). They say it is "the most ground-breaking gaming laptop". Why? Perhaps because of its translucent body parts that let you see almost nothing on the inside.Or maybe because of the performance, which should not be bad, considering the fact that it features the latest tech from NVIDIA in the form of RTX 4000 GPUs. However, they are working at only 45W of TGP.In addition, the CPUs of choice include the Core i7-12650H, and Core i7-13620H - processors that have half the E-core count of their more powerful cousins. On the[...]

    Pros

    • Pretty good gaming performance
    • 1x M.2 PCIe x4 Gen 4 slot, 2x DDR5 RAM SODIMM slots in dual channel
    • 144Hz refresh rate (AUO B156HAN15.1 (AUOD0A2))

    Cons

    • No SD card
    • No Thunderbolt 4
    • Covers only 54% of sRGB (AUO B156HAN15.1 (AUOD0A2))

    ASUS TUF Gaming F15 (FX507, 2023) in-depth review

    With the rise of inflation, budget gaming notebooks are no longer very affordable. However, manufacturers have done their fair share of the price increase, by making these products with higher-quality materials.In addition to that, NVIDIA and Intel introduced an incredibly powerful lineup of GPUs and CPUs recently, but again - they are no longer the bargain they used to be. On the bright side, even the RTX 4050 (which now finally comes with 6GB of GDDR6 VRAM) is capable of crushing every game at 1080p and max settings.The laptop we're going to talk about today is the ASUS TUF Gaming F[...]

    Pros

    • Pretty good gaming performance
    • 2x M.2 PCIe x4 Gen 4 slot, 2x DDR4 RAM SODIMM slots in dual channel

    MSI Katana 15 (B12Ux / B12Vx / B13Ux / B13Vx) in-depth review

    From all of the gibberish on MSI's official Website, we learn one thing - the Katana is no longer called the GF66. Instead, it follows its weapon cousin - the Sword, in adopting the simpler "15" moniker. This will make the two devices ever so harder to differentiate. However, we are here for only one of them today - the MSI Katana 15 (B13V).It comes with a 13th Gen Intel processor. While it is the somewhat crippled Core i7-13620H, we have high expectations for its gaming performance. Consisting of 6 P-cores and 4 E-cores, it should be a rather efficient unit.On the graphics side, you [...]

    Pros

    • Pretty good gaming performance
    • 2x M.2 PCIe x4 Gen 4 slots, 2x DDR5 RAM SODIMM slots in dual channel
    • 144Hz refresh rate (AUO B156HAN08.4 (AUOAF90))
    • No PWM (AUO B156HAN08.4 (AUOAF90))

    MSI Thin 15 (B12Ux / B12Vx / B13Ux / B13Vx) in-depth review

    In 2024, the market offers a lot of budget gaming laptops and some of them are pretty capable for their price. One of the notable mentions in this category is the Acer Nitro V 15 (ANV15-41) which is a great bang for the buck but has one bad flaw - the super high noise during CPU-heavy tasks. On the other hand, we got the MSI Thin 15 B12U which is also an inexpensive gaming machine and it looks pretty sleek for its class.This one is offered with Intel Alder Lake-H CPUs and up to RTX 3050 with 4GB VRAM. The 12th Gen 45W chips are still a good choice for the budget segment. They pack tons of [...]

    Pros

    • Good overall performance for the class
    • 2x SODIMMs + 1x M.2 slot + 1x SATA slot
    • PWM-free (CMN1521)

    • Aluminum lid and top base cover
    • The Core i5-12450H can sustain 3.20 GHz / 2.60 GHz P and E core frequencies during long CPU loads
    • The MSI Center offers plenty of customizations
    • 4x USB ports
    • Light device - 1.86 kg
    • Acceptable noise levels during gaming
    • The RTX 2050 can maintain a stable 45W TGP even in "Balanced" mode
    • Good sound quality
    • Decently fast and well-cooled SSD (512GB Phison ESO512GHLCA1-21C-2MS)
    • Aluminum lid and top chassis cover

    Cons

    • Just Gen 1 USB ports
    • Slight wobble in the middle of the keyboard during harsh typing
    • Low sRGB coverage (CMN1521)
    • Short battery life

    ASUS TUF Gaming A15 (FA507, 2023) in-depth review

    The last few ASUS TUF Gaming devices that we have reviewed left us with positive impressions. The ASUS TUF Gaming A17 (FA707, 2023) has good cooling potential and long battery life and the same applies to the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 FA507. We got the successor of the latter in front of us - the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 (FA507, 2023).The new version has a similar design but the real deal is hidden under the bonnet. You can choose between a refreshed AMD Zen 3+ CPU and a more powerful Zen 4 chip. The mobile NVIDIA RTX 4000 GPUs are part of the package and they come with hefty TGPs which is something [...]

    Pros

    • Rock solid boost of 3.90 GHz on all cores
    • Has a MUX Switch, G-Sync, and Advanced Optimus support
    • 2x M.2 PCIe x4 Gen 4 slot, 2x DDR5 RAM SODIMM slots in dual-channel

    • 144Hz refresh rate (Innolux N156HMA-GA1 (CMN1556))
    • PWM-free (Innolux N156HMA-GA1 (CMN1556))
    • Tremendous battery life
    • Good build quality
    • The Armoury Crate offers plenty of customizations
    • The fans aren't spinning during light loads in "Silent" mode

    Cons

    • The GeForce RTX 4060 is a bit bottlenecked by the Ryzen 7 7735HS

    HP Victus 15 (15-fa0000, fb0000, fa1000, fb1000) in-depth review

    Even though Victus is not HP's most affordable gaming brand, it actually presents you with the best offers. And a little something tells us that it won't be only seasonal.In fact, the Victus 15 (15-fb0000) can be your best way to enter the gaming world. In particular, the 15-fb0000 comes with AMD CPUs from the last generation - Ryzen 5 5600H, and Ryzen 7 5800H. This is great, because these processors are still very powerful, and are pretty easy to cool.Graphics-wise, your choices are a bit limited. You won't be able to get anything more powerful than an RTX 3050 Ti. However, even the [...]

    Pros

    • Fantastic price
    • Good keyboard
    • 2x SODIMM DDR4 + 1x M.2 slots (one supports Gen 4 drives)
    • Good cooling

    • Quick pixel response times (AUO AUO3B9C)
    • No PWM (AUO AUO3B9C)

    ASUS ROG Strix G16 (G614, 2023) in-depth review

    ASUS is one of the brands that just can't stop innovating. From technology that is premiered on the market, to one that is being popularized - like the OLED panels found in many affordable ASUS laptops.However, this was one of the first major notebook brands that employed liquid metal for its CPU thermal compound. Now, the ROG Strix G16 (G614, 2023) comes with the same compound found over its HX-series Raptor Lake processor.This is one of the big differences between this machine, and the TUF Gaming F15 (FX507, 2023), bar the screen size. We have to take into consideration the fact tha[...]

    Acer Nitro V 15 (ANV15-51) in-depth review

    As you may already know, the Nitro series devices are budget-oriented laptops that offer a good bang for the buck (or at least in most cases). These machines are also very popular and that's why Acer is trying to manufacture even more affordable devices. Their new creation is called the Acer Nitro V 15 (ANV15-51).Interestingly, this one looks like an Aspire notebook with Nitro treatment. Of course, it's not just a rebranded notebook with a bit different look. You can use the handy Acer NitroSense app for advanced system monitoring, fan control, and for applying different performance preset[...]

    • Long battery life given the hardware
    • Capable cooling solution
    • High CPU clocks and power limits during any kind of load
    • The Acer Nitro Sence app offers a good amount of customization including 3 performance presets and a custom fan curve

    Cons

    • Flexible lid
    • Loud fans in CPU-intensive tasks
    • One of the M.2 slots is for Gen 3 SSDs
    • Very high CPU temperature in short and medium loads
    • Low sRGB coverage (Innolux N156HRA-EA1 (CMN1521))
