What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
There are a few caveats to be aware of and this definitely isn't a premium laptop. After just adding storage and ram, it runs great, and my son is extremely happy and loves this computer. Easy to upgrade (8gb ssd total and 64gb ram), took me less than... Read More
The nitro 5 is well assembled and the hinge has been secure. It's recessed into the lid and there's a sizable plastic bezel around the edge. You do at least get a number of convenient ports built right in (headphone, usb 3.
Cons

The only way to expand the memory is to replace one or both of the installed ram with larger capacity ram sticks. Problem with replacing it with a larger m. Is that it has no hard drive.
Highlights
Quality
Plugged in extra storage👍 it’s cool and works like a higher quality laptop
It works great and far exceeds the laptop i had been using previously to game on.
Windows ran and i could even play a few games, but performance is throttled because the memory will be maxed out.
And the plastic case is very susceptible to finger print stains and is difficult to get and keep clean.
Price
For the price this laptop is a great game pc.
I bought 2 sticks of 16 gig (32 total) for $70 and it's running quick and smooth.
I could not be happier about my purchase and the affordable cost.
There is a caveat that come with the price.
Shipping
It arrived quickly and was protectively packaged.
Arrived on time brand new in the box.
Competitiveness
The rtx 3050 is pretty dang capable and the 12th gen i5 processor is better than the 11th gen i7.
Only thing it does better than my maxed spec lenovo p50 thats 9 years old is run newer games.
