When it comes to gaming, there are two distinct groups. One of them happens to be serious gamers, those who would settle for nothing less than the best when it comes to hardware and performance. The other would be casual gamers, who love nothing better than to pick up a game while they are on the move, pause for a few hours, before resuming at any point in time where they are able to sit back and relax. Well, Acer would like to cater to the latter crowd with the Convertible Nitro 5 Spin gaming notebook.
This particular notebook will be powered by the all-new 8th generation Intel Core processor and accompanied by the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 graphics card that boasts of GDDR5 VRAM. In other words, there is more than enough punch packed underneath the hood to be able to ensure a decent gaming experience regardless of where you are.
Another interesting point that the Acer Nitro 5 Spin offers for gamers would be a bright, 15.6-inch Full HD IPS display that makes it suitable for playing games, as well as enjoying your favorite movies and videos, or simply to browse through your collection of photos. A pair of carefully placed front-facing speakers that are accompanied by a subwoofer and leading audio technologies ensure premium audio regardless of the purpose.
With a flexible convertible notebook design, the Acer Nitro 5 Spin can be used in display mode to bring the action up close and personal, and its lightweight form factor makes for a fantastic device to tote around as you travel. Not only that, it claims to deliver a 10 hour battery life, which makes it superb to enjoy modern games like Dota 2, Overwatch, and League of Legends without worrying about hunting for a power outlet. Depending on the kind of hardware specifications that lie underneath the hood, the Acer Nitro 5 Spin will retail from $999 upwards.
