Looks like a great deal as a desktop replacement, but the reviews say it gets 3 hours of browser usage on battery. Having dealt with Acer's spotty commitment to software updates, I would not hold my breath for that to change.

FYI the 5070 Ti is a 12GB card, not a 16GB as you listed in the description, Op.

For under 2k you're getting a 5070ti in a solid laptop with a good processor and OLED screen. Harder to find than you think.

Take my comment witha grain of salt since it's a test of just 1 unit, but my local bestbuys model has been frozen for at least a week (trying to hype myself to by this exact model) but it's been on a permanent blue error screen and holding down the power button would not shut it down.

Those display models do go through hell, someone could have dumped their soda on it.

From what I hear if you need something very reliable then get a Thinkpad or Elitebook.

This model has a lower watt 5070ti.. just an FYI. I think 125 watts

also reports that screen cannot be downclocked to 60hz while on battery to save battery life, stays at 240hz

Figured I would tag you, but wanted to post in general.

I messed with this at both microcenter and Bestbuy and the build quality feels terrible. Like the screen is so flimsy that even opening from the center had massive flex in the panel because the screen is so weak compared to the hinges tension. Body feels bad as well.

Like I would probably buy this over a MSI but honestly the feel might be worse than most of the MSI's I messed with. Personally I could overlook mediocre quality in a 500 dollar laptop, but not something at 2k I plan to own for years. Would rather have a 5070 with Legion or ASUS or even HP Omen over this.
