These days, it’s quite a challenge to find a decent budget gaming laptop. Almost all of them come with some severe caveat to the overall design, whether that’s a mismatched screen and GPU, poor battery life, meager RAM capacity, or middling CPU performance. The Acer Nitro V 15 (ANV15-41) very much bucks that trend, though, by sidestepping almost every common gaming laptop hiccup, resulting in a surprisingly capable laptop for the price. And it’s the price that’s the real driver behind all the love up there in that paragraph, that’s for sure. This edition of the Acer Nitro V 15 is listed at just under $900. For that, you get a radically well-balanced build, including an AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS processor, along with 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a surprisingly potent Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU, which performs admirably, despite being a 75W unit. That’s all bundled together with a super smooth 1080p IPS screen with a 165Hz IPS refresh rate, baked into a lovely, simple chassis, giving it an air of balance. It’s a treat to use. It’s not perfect; there are a few flaws in the overall spec sheet that hold it back from perfection, but it's otherwise the best gaming laptop you can buy at this price.

Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Amazon announced today that it’s pumping another $4 billion into Claude AI maker Anthropic, bringing its total funding amount to $8 billion. This latest round follows $1.25 billion last September and another $2.75 billion in March.
