This Nimo 17.3 laptop stands out for its Ryzen 7 8745HS and Radeon 780M pairing, which should handle everyday use and light to mid level gaming without a dedicated graphics card. The aluminum build, 16GB memory, and serviceable design with extra M.2 space add appeal, and the screen is described as brighter than expected for a budget system. The main concerns are the lack of discrete graphics, loud fans under load, and a 60 hertz panel. Warranty support and seller messaging also raise trust questions, so it looks best for buyers who value performance and upgradability over polish.
Common Questions (5)
No dedicated GPU is listed; it uses the Ryzen 7 8745HS with Radeon 780M integrated graphics. That setup can handle low-to-mid settings gaming and lightweight titles, but it is not the same as a discrete gaming GPU.
The chassis is reported as aluminum and feels solid rather than flimsy. A similar Nimo model was described as looking good and working perfectly, though one concern raised is that the brand's build quality and support can be inconsistent.
Warranty support may be difficult to track down, and one review noted that an Amazon purchase from an authorized reseller came with a full 2-year warranty. If warranty coverage matters, the seller and reseller status should be checked carefully.
Yes. The Ryzen 7 8745HS and Radeon 780M pairing is strong enough for low-to-mid settings gaming, with examples like playable Battlefield V on low, around 120 fps in Roblox, and maxed-out Left 4 Dead.
Not always. Clicking through has shown a higher price of $829 instead of the advertised $498, so the checkout price should be verified before buying.

Build quality is also not very good. The price is right though.
I guess the steamdeck or ROG ally are shady because they use integrated graphics too.
Updated w/o images:
So far I am pretty impressed. It looks like there are multiple vendors who sell this on Amazon. I think the vendors buy the laptops bear w/o any SSD and memory and add their own. I was concerned about warranty as I bought this from Amazon and the Vendor I bought it from was an authorized reseller, so it has the full 2-year warranty.
Mine came with Samsung 16GB 5600 and a Kioxia EG6 2230 512GB of memory mounted to an expander board so it could mount to the 2280. The 5600mhz speed of the memory will hopefully boost the iGPU performance compared to the stated 4800 memory. This HW differs than the ADATA Memory+Kingston SSD listed on Nimo site, though I didn't see those brands advertised on Amazon's site. The wifi card is installed into a m.2 slot and there is a 3rd empty M.2 slot. It seems most of Nimo's other laptops with slower CPUs don't come with the extra M.2 Slot and the wifi card is soldered directly to the motherboard. At some point I might try to mod this laptop by adding a OcuLink port that is attached to the free M.2 slot to allow the use of an external GPU, if I get bored. The CPU/iGPU, serviceability, and price point was why I got this. The 8 core and 16 threads should hold out for many years.
The CPU/APU has two heat pipes along with two fans. The bottom has a very large vent w/ screen for intake, though the fan exhaust is rather small with the hot air being blown into a ~5mm gap in front of the screen. The chassis is made out of Aluminum, the construction doesn't feel as though as my work's Dell laptop, though it doesn't feel flimsy. This is more of a consumer product than my work's laptop as users can be rough with devices they don't own. The 15.6" Nimo was 1.623kg vs. the 14" Dell at 1.468kg. I did notice the screen on the Nimo can bounce around a little bit more if you are using it on the lap compared to using it on a table. I am unsure if this is due to the large screen of the Nimo or if the Dell has a sturdier hinge. I don't have complaints about the keyboard, and the touch pad is large w/ a nice tactile click. I didn't see brightness rating of the screen, though it was a lot brighter than I was expecting, for a budget system like this. I have no way to measure the brightness, though when I did turn it on, I do admit I squinted and lowered the brightness. I am typing this on the laptop with dim soft lamp to my side and I am sitting at about 20% brightness.
The iGPU in this is a 780m and it is funny to think it is much faster than my old 660 ti that I use to use years ago. The iGPU is a lot better than the typical iGPU and is slightly better than a GTX 1050 ti in terms of performance. I ran 3D Mark against this system and it fell slightly below average. This more than powerful enough to handle any lightweight gaming you throw at it. My biggest gripe about this system is the 60hz panel, I don't need more than 1080p for a screen of this size, though I wish it did have a 120-144hz panel and that may be something I change at some point as I am handy and like to tinker. I tried out BFV out on this system and I was surprised it was playable; granted I only tried it on low settings. The FPS meter didn't show up properly in BFV, though I did try some lightweight games like roblox (~120fps) and left4dead (max FPS) w/o any issues. During normal use the laptop is very quiet, though when running time spy benchmarks and playing games, the fans did ramp up loudly. While being noticeable during high utilization, it wouldn't bother me, especially as I normally use headsets. The speakers on this and their sound quality are what I would expect at this price point.
I didn't try gaming, while on battery, though for normal mixed use of watching videos & surfing the web, it felt like I was able to get an hour for every ~10% of battery. So maybe about ~10 hours of battery time under non-gaming mixed used workloads
I have been keeping an eye on Slickdeals for a Windows Laptop/tablet/2-in-1 as my work laptop is locked down and sometimes it is nice to have something portable. This will also be more of a device my family might use. In all I wanted portable backup windows laptop that has enough power to stay relevant for 5+ years, is easily serviceable/upgradable, and didn't cost a whole lot of money. I know for about $150 more I could get the 17" Nimo with double the memory and a slightly faster CPU for 33% more, though I didn't need it and wasn't sure how comfortable a 17" would be to use. I also checked out the Miniforms v3 as it had some interesting use cases for me as a 2nd monitor for traveling, though went this route as this is more serviceable. Most of the other laptops I saw on this site that were close to this price point that had discrete cards seemed to compromise too much on the CPU for my use case as well limited serviceability.
they want the customer to think they are ordering and dealing with amazon, and if you just look at that quickly your mind may take it as an amazon warehouse deal lol
shady!!!
