  • 3DNewsSep 2026

    Tested ANV16S-71-75R0 with Core 7 240H, 85 W RTX 5060, 32 GB / 1 TB and a 2560x1600 180 Hz screen: not the fastest in its class, but a good mix of screen quality, battery life and sensible noise, with no overheating.

  • 3DNewsNov 2025

    Tested the AMD twin (Nitro V 16S AI, Ryzen 5 240, RTX 5050 at up to 83 W, 16 GB / 1 TB, 1920x1200 180 Hz): an entry gaming kit that plays most new games at medium settings, with a good screen and long battery for light use.

  • MezhaNov 2025

    Tested the AMD twin (ANV16S-41, Ryzen 5 240, RTX 5050 at 70-85 W, 16 GB, 1920x1200 180 Hz): a well-balanced entry gaming laptop that handles current games at its resolution, with steady cooling and a comfortable keyboard. (Score from Notebookcheck's review list.)

  • Tested the AMD twin ANV16S-41-R2AJ (Ryzen 7 260, 85 W RTX 5060, 32 GB, 1920x1200 180 Hz): well built with a bright, colourful screen, good sound and over 10 hours of battery, but similarly priced rivals such as the MSI Katana are faster in games.
