UK gamers – get ready. Acer has just unveiled one of the best gaming laptop deals we've seen since Black Friday, with £250 off its popular Acer Nitro V 15, now only £499.99 over at Amazon for a limited time. That's a generous 33% discount on the usual £749.99 retail price, and you might want to act fast too – as Acer says this deal will expire on April 15th.

It's rare to find a gaming laptop at this level for under £500, and the Nitro V 15 offers excellent high-performance gaming power that's suitable for casual gamers, entry-level gamers, students, and all kinds of creatives on a budget. It's not only one of the best laptops for students, but it's pretty portable too, which gives gamers the flexibility for fast-paced gaming on the go (or while travelling around campus).

Review Consensus: We haven't gotten our hands on this specific model from Acer yet, but we have reviewed its sibling, the Acer Nitro 16, and found it to be a powerful proposition with good value for money. Our sister sites that have reviewed the V 15 model called it a well-built budget system, though the display could use some work.
