Acer Nitro 5 AN515-55 Review
Acer Nitro 5 AN515-55 (2020), the Comet Lake 15.6-inch Nitro 5. The US AN515-55-53E5 pairs a Core i5-10300H with an RTX 3050 4GB, 8GB DDR4 (2 slots, up to 32GB), a 256GB SSD and a 15.6-inch 1920x1080 IPS 144Hz screen.
For repairs: 144Hz units use a 40-pin FHD IPS panel (documented: Innolux N156HRA-EA1, AUO B156HAN08.4), while 60Hz units use a 30-pin panel (LG LP156WFC-SPD5, AUO B156HAN02.1). The battery is a 4-cell 15.4V pack, AP18E8M / AP18D8M at 57.48Wh or AP18E7M at 58.75Wh depending on build. Notebookcheck measured 57.5Wh and 2.27kg; weight here is from Acer's 5.07 lb figure.
Screen replacement
144Hz: Innolux N156HRA-EA1 (Notebookcheck review unit) or AUO B156HAN08.4 (laptopscreen.com), equivalence set p156-fhd-ips-40p-144hz-a. 60Hz: LG LP156WFC-SPD5 (LaptopMedia review unit) or AUO B156HAN02.1, set p156-fhd-ips-30p-ntouch-a. Count the pins on your cable before ordering.
