Bought Nitro 5 New, Got it Refurbished.

August 19th 2019, I purchased the best device regarding specs I have ever owned, I was going to use it for school as most people who had it says that battery can last up to 8 hours. Bought it directly off of acer.ca (I'm Canadian). When I started school on September 4th I already noticed my battery lasted about 2 hours while doing practically nothing. I checked the serial number and went to repair my Acer. It said that my warranty was expired as it was purchased on December 10th 2018. This came as a surprise as I was their for the purchasing of the laptop. I am guessing Acer sent me a refurbished laptop which is NOT WORTH $1,500!! I feel scammed and am not having a good experience from Acer support as I'm just getting message instructions on how to send the laptop to Acer. I truly believe this is unfair and should be handled accordingly.

I'm also slightly fed up with Acer so I was wondering if I am able to get a refund after purchasing it 19 days ago.
