Is the screen 45% NTSC, 250 nits?

Edit: the screen also has very slow response time, 25-35ms. Not good for competitive gaming.

Thanks for the info.

So, if you're near a Microcenter, I'd say the Lenovo LOQ 4050 is the better laptop at this price. 300nits, 100% sRGB screen. Better CPU, 1TB SSD, and better manufacturer.

If the screen is bad, can you make it work with a monitor? How is this for gaming?

Don't know much about what that number means but it sure seems hella low compared to other screens.

It is. It's basically the worst screen you can get on any modern gaming laptop.
Low color range, not very bright.

Sure. When you plug in an external monitor, the built-in screen doesn't matter very much.

You can game on the screen, but colors won't be very vibrant, and it isn't very bright. Up to you how much you care about that.

The VivoBook is a far better option if you're not gaming much. The VivoBook's Arc graphics can even do a little gaming, though it won't perform as well in games as this laptop. Also, you cannot upgrade the RAM in the VivoBook. If your intense web browsing involves opening hundreds of tabs in Chrome, you might benefit from 32+GB RAM. This Acer supports up to 64GB RAM, and has two m.2 slots for SSDs.

But other than that the VivoBook is better all around. Better battery life, way better screen, better CPU, thinner.

Manufacturers do sometimes list these numbers, but they aren't always truthful on the screen specs, you'll need to check professional reviews. Notebookcheck is a great source for this:

Why would anyone want this for competitive gaming? I'd get this for other things other than competitive gaming.

It is a gaming laptop. If someone doesn't have a lot of money available(maybe they're a student), but plays LoL, Rocket League, Valorant, DoTA, CS:Go, Fortnight, etc... competitively, they might be considering this laptop. The RTX 4050 is perfectly capable of running those games at high framerates. Other similarly spec'd low-cost gaming laptops would be fine options, provided the screen response time is faster.
