Stopped working after 4 months
This battery backup is faulty and stopped working after 4 months, called tech support & they confirmed the inside of it fried, you can smell it burning. Not worth the money.

Great for stand Alone uses, not so otherwise
Always wondering who do not use battery outlets while using a UPS (so make all outlets battery ones).
Other than that seems neat, just worriing about control app as it lack lots of needed features... First in mind, is oldest and now unsupported mails protocols...

Useful controllable options
This UPS has worked well for a year now including a few power outages and several glitches. I liked the ability to select the sensitivity ranges. I also especially liked that the lighting that could be controlled to select a color that is agreeable and to provide light on the sockets in the back.

Great failure!
This ran until there was a power outage. It went into F02 failure during the outage. I emailed support since neither phone number supplied in the warranty section worked. Purchased at full price in February 2022. Died during first required use in July 2022. Don not recommend. I never had a problem with APC products before so I am not sure if support was bad or not befor...

Great features
This APS UPS has great back-up power. The case is very nice looking and displays well. There are plenty of plugs for various devices, including ports to recharge pohones and similar devices. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a new Back-up UPS

Prettiest UPS I've ever owned. Functional too.
Better than a 4-star, but not a 5.
The APC Gaming Back-UPS 1500VA is a sleek looking, very good (maybe excellent) UPS.
The 10 outlets (6B+4S) are nice -- I was able to connect the system, three monitors, router, and an LED desk lamp to the battery outlets, plus a printer and powered speakers in the surge only. Still leaves two surge-protected outlets.

Great styling to accompany great function in an ov
This product is used to support a Sony PlayStation 4 gaming system, and it works quite well. It is a beautifully-styled product that will look attractive even if out in the open. The choice of LED colors is an added attraction that will likely appeal to gamers.

Looks as Good as it Works
This is their best model in awhile. Others work well, but have to hide them. This one complements my computer. I love the position and look of the display. Probably more color choices than needed, but with the proliferation of LED light controllers not much of an added cost. Lots of connections, both AC and USB. Long-time user of Schneider APC products. Have tried other...

Working solid!
I've plugged this into my home audio/gaming platform and it looks very cool with the different selectable colored lights! It's visually awesome but seems to do quite well with protecting my electronics from any surges or brownouts. Very easy to get up and running (just install battery and plug everything into it. You can watch the battery charge on the LCD screen to kno...

Glad they thought of this.
While my work in IT is a priority, my home network also requires a fair share of attention, and my users at home are MUCH more demanding. Having our router or one of the gaming systems go down in the middle of a Battle Royale will certainly upset the folks I care about most, and when Mom loses connectivity- ain't nobody happy. APC to the rescue! This purpose-built UPS i...

Gaming is of no worr...

Solid unit great for gaming or desktops.
I love the look of this unit. It is more stylish and looks great sitting with my iMac. I unplugged it and it kept the computer running great. I love that it protects against power surges-a major concern in my area. The digital visual makes it easy to see how much time is remaining. I do wish the battery had a longer life for longer periods of power outages for running a...
