There are several presets, including Gaming General, Gaming FPS, Gaming Sports, Movies, Music and Voice. There is a Waves Maxx Audio app to tweak the audio to your liking. The holiday jingle sounded a bit flat and congested as it emanated from the oddly placed, bottom-firing speakers. Another gripe I have with the Nitro 5 keyboard is its poorly placed power button - I am not a fan of power buttons integrated into the keyboard, sorry. Capitalizing letters is a pain in the rear instead of landing on the Shift key, I often ended up on the up-arrow key, which sent the blinking text cursor flying to another paragraph. One of the Nitro 5’s biggest offenses is its shortened Shift key - an issue I addressed in 2020 laptop trends that must die. I scored 84 words per minute on the typing test, which is a slight regression from my typical 85-wpm typing speed. I hated typing on this laptop so much, I angrily gave up on it while typing this review in Google Docs. While I love how the keyboard looks, I cannot stand how it feels. You can always turn off the red backlight, but the dark-red symbols superimposed on black keys are a tad difficult to see. Unfortunately, if you’re not a fan of red-backlit keys, you’ll be disappointed to know that the Nitro 5 doesn’t feature customizable RGB-key lighting, so you’re stuck with red.
I even love the red backlighting, which has four brightness tiers. The keyboard’s island-style, red-and-black color scheme panders to my personal tastes - I have a weakness for crimson-and-onyx motifs. The Legion 5 fares the worst with an embarrassing color-coverage score of 40%. The G5 15 SE takes the crown as having the most colorful display (77%). The ROG Strix G15 covers 1% more of the DCI-P3 color space than the Nitro 5 (46%). The Nitro 5 also covers 45% of the DCI-P3 color gamut, which is eight percentage points less than the 53% category average. The ROG Strix G15 (251 nits), G5 15 SE (301 nits) and Legion 5 (287 nits) are all brighter than the Nitro 5, but not by much. The Acer laptop’s display emanates only 245 nits of brightness, which is dimmer than the average budget gaming laptop (271 nits). I hope you don’t sit near a bright window - Nitro 5 is pretty darn dim.
#NITRO READER 5 1080P#
Of course, being that the Nitro 5 is equipped with a 1080p screen, it won’t win any awards, but I was pleased with the game’s visuals on Nitro 5’s IPS display. I loved how the display accurately showed Agent 47’s transition from the muggy wilderness - cloudy with a misty haze - to a less humid environment with muddy streets and run-down brick homes. I played Hitman 2, navigating through a Colombian jungle to take down a drug cartel.
