Bought 4 different ones the last go around. 2x3050ti and 2x3050 (various friends and family needed new ones). 3 were absolute rock solid. 1 would detect a battery, but absolutey would not accept that it could go to battery power. Instant power off if u plugged from power, and battery never would "charge" over 60%. Did a return...and waited 3 weeks with no communication. Had to email twice more in the next 10 days before I finally got tracking info. Got the laptop and it was a completely different one than the one I sent in, so my guess is that something got lost after they opened it.

Either way I'm still happy becuse I got it replaced, just be prepared to follow up with them.

This is a fantastic deal! I got the same one with the 11800H in it and this one is better performing for just $10 more. The processor is i5 instead of i7 in mine, but 12th gen has such a big performance boost. And this one has full RGB keyboard instead of just red. I'd return and rebuy, but that just feels like a lot of work.

Acer Nitro refurbs are always a bit of dice rolling. I've seen them turn out great, and I've also seen them turn out to be lemons. Hard to say in the abstract.

Yes, in a match up i5 12500h beats i7 11800h by a margin. Worth the upgrade if less than $70. Big bump in price to the 12700h tho

Everything I've heard so far has been great and mine had almost no time on it as well. Doesn't mean it couldn't be a completely different story for someone else…

Still on the fence with buying a refurbished mid level or a 12700h ddr5 laptop with a 3070 for twice the price..

Does the free 2yr allstate warranty help?

I mean, it's better than nothing.

The wildcard is Acer just doesn't tell you whether you are getting one that a customer only had for a week and decided to return -- in which case it's practically brand new -- OR if it's something someone returned 6 months later after heavy usage, after being dropped 3 or 4 times without really showing so, etc.

It's not an awful deal...but it does come with some added risk that you need to be aware of. And like I said before, I've seen an Acer gaming laptop refurb turn out great and I've seen one cause constant problems after a year or so.

This seems like a MUCH better deal for those who really want a step up in GPU power.

How does this compare to the Acer Swift 3 deal that was posted a few days ago?
